Not worth the money. It is horribly boring. The game doesnt even allow you to jump... Its really sad. Just save your money and go buy world of warcraft. The small monthly fee is worth it, compared to lame online games like guild wars.

I usaly like FPS and RTS games the best but Guild wars has me hooked. The game play is great and non repetive. I have spent about 60 HRS playing and I have just scratched the surface of the possible gameplay. BUY THIS GAME
Excellent Game

This is the first MMORPG that I have played and, honestly, I'm not sure I want to switch to anything else. The gameplay is excellent, though a bit slow in sections (Nightfall and Factions both allow faster levels). I highly recommend this game.

Let me compose myself before I begin... *ahem*
Guild Wars, the fantastic game of fantasy that has so graced the computer world. Do you want to go on fabulous adventures without hundreds of people getting in your way? Do you want to be the hero and save the day? Do you want a character that is all your own both in look and accomplishment? Here you go!
You get to make and maintain 4 different characters when you purchase this game. There are NO monthly fees to participate and updates are done automatically while you play. The world is vast with hundreds (if not thousands) of quests and places to explore. Combat is engaging and fun - there are many different powers and skills to use; which translates into many different ways to overcome the obstacles.
The game was designed well and feels alive and interactive. As you progress your character's appearance is very much up to you. You can dye your equipment, customize gear, and have all sorts of neat magical devices. So go and find that sword, dye it red, and put a nice bright gem on the handle - how's that look? The fact that you can manipulate the environment and objects in this fashion, adding your personal taste, makes the game that much better.
Performance, Graphics, etc: The visuals in this game are nothing short of eye-candy! With the graphic settings turned all the way up (need a rockin' PC) the world of Guild Wars is breathtaking. I haven't been blown away by a computer-generated natural landscape since I first played Morrowind. The soundtrack and sound effects are top notch - some may get repetitive if you play often but at least they sound good.
NOTE: make sure your PC exceeds the minimum requirements by a comfortable margin - this game, though very efficient, is HUGE and BEAUTIFUL: both memory hogs. Update any system drivers, disable any unnecessary background programs, and optimize your system before installing & playing. If you don't have high-speed internet this could be a painful experience: broadband is definitely needed. My recommendation for MINIMUM PC requirements: CPU of 1.0ghz, 512mb RAM, 64mb AGP video card, 24-bit sound, and a Broadband connection. More CPU speed, RAM, and Video memory will boost performance significantly.
Check your system, get this game, and get going!
Boring import from South Korea

This South Korean game is very boring. I got a free trial and gave up after a couple nights. They had some bandwidth problems, too, so this is worth less than nothing. Some of the English text in the game is poorly translated and makes zero sense to a native English speaker. This game doesn't even deserve half a star.
great game for a while.

Great game.. after the first part of the game which gets you to know how to play, You have to team play no matter what. For awhilei loved it, but then it started getting old and boring. Gameplay is kinda like Diablo 2. Think of towns as the chat rooms where as once you make a group you go through a instance for the actual game. Storywise its preety good, could of been alot better and longer though. PvE play is only fun for a while then it gets really boring. PvP though is always fun. If your trying to find a replacement for a paid Rpg or Diablo itself or any game like that, No it will not cover it for those I think myself are much better and more addictive to play.,

yeah the topic says it all...graphics are beautiful...but the gameplay is just completely and utterly boring after like 2 weeks of playing. It's just the same thing over and over and over again. I really dont see how anyone could be playing this for long periods of time. All of the guilds I joined(8 of them) were all completely and utterly new the oldest one i joined was like 3 weeks old. Unlike other games out there where you can find guilds/groups that have been playing for years.
Excellent Game
