SemiFail
Before reading, please remember where you read this first okej!!!
Once upon a time there was a game launch....
Age of Conan.......................FAILED
Warhammer Online...............FAILED
There were others aswell but I think we don't need more examples. Now, will GW2 fail epically? No it wont! Will it be the next big one then? No it wont either!
This is a game that will do better than AoC and WAR put together but not more though! So it will not fail as hard as those game did but it won't be much more however...
Estimated numbers of players a year after launch: Approximately 275K = SEMIFAIL

It's too bad we can't rate posts. I would rate this a zero for adding no value and wasting space on the internet.

Let me give you a tip, when post these "predictions" putting a source or maybe reaons to explan how you came up with these will help your credebility. If this is just for a point that you want to be the first to claim this, don't you're just a wasting time and space. Explain how or why it's going to "semifail".
I don't understand this thread.

facepalm
mm no, you just have absolutely no backing behind your claims, by posting 2 games completely not related to Arenanet, and those games not failing, not even semi failing.. they both made their money back + some. = sucess!. also those games, due to bad devs and stupid company mistakes, arent even on par with eachother, let alone gw2.. Also what makes you feal that gw2 will be semi fail anyway?? is it just the fact that 2 non related games faild in your eyes? YOU MAKE NO SENCE
lol
I self identify as a monkey.
The biggest part wrong with this thread, is the lack of the OP's ability to use common sense and logic.
Let me explain myself....
GW1 sold over 6 million copies. Not all of those numbers are people who enjoyed the game, but a large number of those sales were people who did like the game and will no doubt buy the 2nd GW. I would say AT LEAST 250k people will buy the game at release. Just because the GW ip already has a huge fan base. (myself included). That number will only increase if the game does well (which I have no doubt it will, especially if you look at people's reactions at Gamescon etc.)
GW2 won't have subscribers because the game is b2p. Claw do you know anything about this game? You're just spouting nonsensical bs with no source. Also have you not noticed that this is the most hyped game on this site and many others around the web? GW2 will be quite successful, it does indeed have a major amount of hype, but from what they have shown it deserves the praise its receiving. Go post your doom and gloom somewhere else bro.
Well he is right about one thing! GW2 will not get 6 million subscribers, since the game does not have a subscription. So dude I give you props for predicting a game without subscriptions will not get a lot of subscriptions. I wish I had the talent to make those kind of predictions, I would be rich…oh wait.
I think this thread made all of us fattier (ITS A WORD) around the waist.
Ok, so now I'm confused. Which is it? Is GW2 going to sell like 250k or 6 million?
I really want to hear what you have to say.
You're like Yoda.

All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick.
I get banned in the forums for games I love, so lets see if I do better in the forums for games I hate.
