They've only had two expansions for the game so far? Seems a bit slow to me. I figure an MMORPG needs an expansion per year to keep it fresh and help draw in new gamers as well as retain their current base. I thought they were…

They can come up with a million excuses, none of them are valid. There is zero logical consistency for gender-locking other than being cheap or being lazy.
Completely disagree here. I know of quite a few game whi…
Rumour has it that Anet had been working on some other non-GW2 projects which has caused the drain on the studio, and they will be dumped while focus will go back on GW2, with the layoffs coming from those projects
When it comes to sunseted games, legacy servers would be a brilliant idea, and could even reboot the game itself. On the other hand, I'm not quite sold on existing games. There are two big problems I see:
First one is content locusts. The majority…
I'm kinda not surprised with this. He has been with the company for quite a long time, which can be an anomaly given the turnover most companies have. First Ghostcrawler, now Colin Johanson...
I could be quietly optimistic, but given that they did release 3 new maps through the living story (Southsun Cove, Dry Top and Silverwastes) there is a decent chance we could see new maps added later on anyway. That being said, seeing what was avail…
I find it laughable that there are queue times at all in this day and age. You'd think that with server technology improving over the years they would be able to have a smaller number of servers while still allowing higher populations.
I find it interesting the comments that "WoW still has more subs than the next game" and "still a good number for a 10 year old game." The reason I find this interesting is that we are talking about a game which had a peak of 12 million subs. It too…
Originally posted by meonthissite They now are hanging out on games like Archeage (in it's current 1.2 form) , NWO, and GW2's current economy talking about how wonderful they are. These three games are terrible in that they charge WAY over the top w…
I would have to say No. I have seen good and bad in both models and the sub model isn't a guaranteed barrier because as the game gets popular, those people are going to come over anyway. Just as an example, I have seen more gold sellers advertising …

I saw GuildWars having PEGI12.
Personally i think all MMO's aiming at grown ups/adults should have a PEGI rating of atleast 16+. Why? Well, because its not healthy for kid…
I disagree. All of these kinds of games usually have a clause in stating the the person creating the account is 13+, so the pegi 12 rating is fitting. Also, the ratings are just a guide, and hot hard and fast with legal requirements (unless you are …

Hmmm you still don't seem to get what I am trying to say. The GW concept art is better than the game. That is what I am saying.
When I look at the concept art I see glimpses of this interesting world I'd like to ex…
To a degree I agree, but for some things I think those areas are necessary. One thing I have noticed jumping from game to game is that not all games' controls are the same, and even just a small thing to help you get used to a different control set …

i have to agree this is one of the few mmos i would pay for, so they should make it p2p so they can give more.
About the only thing more you can expect out of P2P is grinding

So it would be more of a fun PvP than the e-Sport that GW PvP currently is.
Don't say "fun PvP" 'cause e-sport PvP is also fun. Say "casual PvP".
I guess you misinterprete…
I guess you haven't been following the info
ANet has noticed that there is very much hardcore PvPers in their PvP section, with casual PvPers being left in the Desolation with no canteen (though IMO Jade Quary makes for a good casual PvP) and are…
