This is a very interesting and fun game to play. But it's also very hard. The mobs tend to overpower the player even with the henchmen who never level unless you are in a different area ,which makes it very frustrating. Everytime the player dies, he has a dead penalty, the odds are not in favor of the player. But overall the game is great.
This Game Is AWESOME

I LOVE this game. It's Awesome!
Guild wars is a role playing game, and a good one at that. The graphics are excellent and there are tons of choices.
Like I said. the graphics are awesome! You gotta buy this if just for the graphics!
There are also tons of choices. Its hard to list them all. This game is just so dang fun.
So anyways, if you like runescape, WOW, or any other rolplaying games, GET THIS GAME!!! oh ya, there are no subscription fees. But this game is Awesome!!!!

Ok I have to admit I have not plaied this game yet but I am looking for a good online game that will keep me plaing it. ive plaied WoW and i didnt like it too much ive plaied FFXi and I loved it at first but it got boring after awhile. So is this game worth the buy or is it just like war craft? Does it get boring after awhile? Please comment.

I played this game when I couldn't sleep and spent hours without knowing it. It has great graphics and one original class, Mesmer, which I love dearly (psst: create Mesmer/Monk).
Since game downloads stuff all the time, you have to be ready to pay flat rate adsl or something like that, otherwise it becomes expensive.
Some missions require lotsa time, which I don't HAVE. There are shortcut keys, but you have to learn it through tutorial, you don't get manual in box with disks.
It would be nice to have Guild War offline game, and play it alone like Diablo. I simply can't make a team with human players.
This way, it is another addictive game via net which dowloads a lot.
Oh yeah, if you play alone, warrior/monk seems to be ok...graphics is soo cute!!! Diablo III should look like this!!!

I moved from Diablo 2 to this game and this game is better. Controls and terrain take getting used to but auto targeting make up for it. You can only play online. You do not need to partner up with other players if you don't want to, but the game is designed for multiplayer. Some (minor) quests require another player on your team. Very addictive.
BEST MMORPG IVE EVER PLAYED

THIS GAME IS PWNFUL. Period. Do not be surprised if you spend hours at this game. The storyline takes well over 50 hours to complete, and even after that, there are hundreds of ways to spend your time. The game lets you have 4 character slots, meaning you can have 4 characters that could be four different professions at 4 different spots in the game. If you are just starting, make a warrior, as they are the most pwnful. This game is better than the other two, so get this one. [...]
THE VERY BEST!!!

As a huge MMORPG fan i have played many games supposedly like this. However the experience was quite different and much better. The choice between PVP and PVE styles of play makes it well worth while for any online gamer. The guild support and team play emphasis work to create a very nice community and an oppertunity to have a lot of fun with this game. The graphics engine is flawless and updates are up to the minute. Arena.net certainly likes to spoil guild wars players with special events and even a lucky interview with the game designers via an npc frog in the main city. For all MMORPG fans, this is a must play. AMAZING!!!!!
Great game

An interesting combination of multi-player, real-time combat and strategy. I am doing the game with a solo character (Warrior/Ranger) and am having a great time. The game is VERY large, so you will have hundreds of hours of play time. I have not even gotten into the player vs. player mode yet, since practice at the real time combat is critical. Unlike many other games, Guild Wars does not necessarily reward excessive play time/farming. It is easy to change skills, and practically make a brand new character for every mission.
Excellent and innovate approach to MMORPGs

You can google the game and find plenty of critical reviews, so I wont explain the details.
The game's use of instances for questing is well implemented and ultimately alot of fun. There are advantages and drawbacks to the isolation that comes from using instances, and I think part of it is a matter of personal taste. It keeps people from interfering with your gameplay, but it also makes the world feel less lived in.
This is offset, however, by the quality of the instanced worlds and quests. The storyline develops across both the primary missions and the subquests, and overall the RPG story elements of the game feel as good as a single-player adventure. The mobs are also fairly competent, and it's not uncommon to find oneself bested by a seemingly inferior group of NPC enemies because they play their roles, (healer/tank/etc.), very well.
Henchmen make much of the game playeable solo, and the PvP and GvG elements make for a solid endgame.
With no monthly subscription fee this title is more than worth the purchase price.
Wow

A great game to start out with but over time it gets repetative, the good thing is that you dont have to pay monthly for it.
