WoW & GW are different — Sun, 30 Jul 2006 14:04:29 +0000

Only thing i can say is.. wow and gw are for different audiences… however i must confess that i prefer WoW more because of many reasons and one of them is mentioned in this article – community. In GW i feel like 70% of the time i am playing an RPG instead of an MMORPG( i mean in WoW things keep happening around you without having the need for you to step into another world never to return to the previous).. there is not even a chat channel. No in game society is formed.. no virtual friendships are made and so on.. so what would really improve guild wars is to remove “unique instanced adventuring” and turn it into one whole big explorable world. (i also dig exploring in wow and spending time on gryphons – Warcraft fanatic)
Basically, if you didn’t play WoW before or for long enough… don’t say GW is better than it. Also if you are not willing to pay USD15/month for a game then don’t .. nobodys forcing you. Don’t complain just because you can’t afford something.
And for all the anti-WoW fans… please try WoW for at least a few months or even up to level 60. WoW is a really great experience if you ignore the immature losers.(Ignore last paragraph if you are one that will not commit just a few hours a week on average for a little virtual goodness).
Peace.

i completely agree the game really gets fun at and near the end and once you can really do some farming so publish the next one when you are lvl 20

I suggest you write this review after you finished the game not when you are lvl 10 ^^. You are not even on 1/4 of play time to get one chararcter done.

Your review is, IMO, a little to early

Sorry, silicor. I wasn’t really expecting to be taken seriously with that comment. Judging the worth of a guild based on their website, especially based on something as trivial as an iframe, is a little strange. That said, I joined the Pirate Ninjas.

Way to slander our guild grouchy gnome. It would have been nice of you to at least to look past the iframes to the content on our website and forums. We have over 40 crewmembers and a lively forum with 2400 posts since it started in February. So maybe our website is not as pretty, but our community is the best.

Good article, looking forward to reading future installments. One correction though, you can jump… sort of. It’s an emote. Type “/jump” and you jump. Not what you mean I know.

Also, I disagree with Doogie. First, you do get the kind of ooc chatter he’s talking about. If there’s less of it, it’s because it’s spread over 20+ instances. Second, I think large-scale “battle grounds” are a neat idea, for similar reason to what you mentioned–it encourages more spontaneous play, the “us vs. them” helps form a community, large battles can be fun. Thing is, when you have a mob like this, tactics and strategy are mostly thrown out the window. Open combat areas also tend to attract gankers, kill stealers, and other deviants, something that GW’s by-invitation-only areas are free from. I think it can be done, and done well–if not necessarily easily–and would add an interesting 4th play option to the Explore PvE, Coop Missions, and PvP.
