If in 1982 we played with the current mentality, we would have burned down all the pac man games since the red ghost was clearly OP. Instead we just got better at the game.
Originally posted by Kwansei I just can't understand players who play different races than what they are in real life... I mean I once met this orc and we got all friendly and then when we chatted on skype he just turned out to be some stupid human with green facepaint on....
Ya..I completely understand this...I thought I had meant an elven princess while playing a past MMO but it just turned out to be a middle aged overweight HUMAN male...what a let down..
my only thing with asura is actually enjoying the weapons and armor, you cant see the detail as well on little people, was my problem with my taru-taru

Lol...tardo.
Im undecided as well. Was sure I was going to be an Asura thief but am considering a norn thief. The biggest, fatest, ugliest one I can create. Kill someone, /Carlton dance
Well, you answered your own question OP. If GW2 is about fun rather than story then you need to play Asura first because they amuse you consistently. I think your real issue is about choosing a class that fits better with the race so you get it all going on. You made the wrong poll...
I have a feeling I am going to reget NOT picking Asura if I pick Human.
I tend to agree.
Ken Fisher - Semi retired old fart Network Administrator, now working in Network Security. I don't Forum PVP. If you feel I've attacked you, it was probably by accident. When I don't understand, I ask. Such is not intended as criticism.
You know, I'm never into races like Asura. Small, odd looking little people. I decided to just roll one to see them because they had not been out and I wanted to see the starting zone. I just kind fell for them. The animations and liitle things they say are funny. I'll defo have one in my line up.
I saw this thread title and thought for sure something bad happened like your video card burned out or some other game-stopping phenomenom....
Anyway, I voted that you should go for Asura. Going to be more unique and, as you said, a whole lot funnier to watch.
Should caution you though, think really hard to be sure you want to have the humor long term, unless you don't mind the possibility of creating a second, human guardian. In WoW I made a gnome warrior for giggles but a year down the road I really regretted it. (Granted, some of that was because being so Tiny made it hard to tank for some encounters because of difficulty seeing over things....even with the camera zoomed out. Not something that would effect a game with no "tank" role).

Sounds good! I remember when the class was first announced... I told my friends "I'm going to guard the shit out of you". Two impenetrable blue bubbles are better than one!

To me, GW2 is about fun... not taking the game "seriously" as I would something like WoW with raiding and such, I've done plenty of that.
What is more fun than the Asura?
I played up to about level 13 of Asura personal story, was interesting.
Personal story is like my last concern.
But being a Human, the underdog of Tyria.. and come on Divinity Reach?
Ya..I completely understand this...I thought I had meant an elven princess while playing a past MMO but it just turned out to be a middle aged overweight HUMAN male...what a let down..
Thus I Spoke

It's the "safe" choice - human that is.
Vanilla, safe, ordinary.
All the racial polls I see say Human are going to be most populated race, which right there is almost reason enough to not be a human.
Only armor I want is from dungeons (that I've seen), none of the racial really called out to me except for the Sylvari because they are so unique.
Or-

I think I'll go Human for my Guardian (main) and save Asura for a fun alt like a Mesmer.
Thanks all!
