Guild Wars II

[MoBiUGeArSkIn]

Guild Wars, all three campaigns, the expansion and the PvP endgame... awesome! There's still no date for this... but the EPICNESS continues, with a lush new graphics engine.



And hopefully it won't have any subscription model to play, just like the original

I bet they slap a subscription on its ass.

You'd be wrong then . It's subscription free. Subscription-less. Sans subscription.

We will see

No, we won't.

Look here. Or you could just take my word for it... I do work for NCsoft....

It's nice to read they are are still targeting mid-range PCs for decent performance. The first game looks, artistically and technically, fantastic. Even now. Runs like a dream fully maxed out on crazy resolutions, on both my desktop and laptop.

No, we won't.

Then cool but is that because its not a good enough mmo to be subscription based like the other one was ?

For my money, Guild Wars is the best "MMO" out there. It's almost as if the lack of a sub meant the game could be, to a point, streamlined. It never felt like a grind because, in reality, it wasn't a grind. You went through 3 campaigns, your character maxed at a naturally achievable level 20, and the PvP endgame where MMOs usually slip up... was actually brilliant.

You could then go back through the campaigns to find special side missions and earn further XP bonuses and other goodies for use in the constantly expanding PvP mode and, unlike other MMOs, the limited slots available to players meant combat was always balanced. There are no mods to extend the hot key options; just a selection of what... 6 slots? Or was it 8? Can't remember.

It's still going strong. I still play it from time to time.

Awesome Interview of Awesomeness sauce.

Sounds and looks fantastic, but how it plays is yet to be seen.

I still have high hopes for this though, so time will tell!
