Guild Wars 2

[Some Stupid Japanese Name]

I meant to play Tera...but this came along.
I still have keys to ffxiv, tera, and rift to use.

I had a ton of fun with it and still drop in to blow shit up once in a while. I don't really expect people I know to keep playing MMOs past a month or two anyway.

More focus on exploration? That does sound more fun! I mean it still looks like it plays like a WoW like MMO versus something like Tera etc which none of my friends played except Mech so meh.

Poor Mech

I only played a free weekend of Tera but it felt like a super-traditional MMO with a nice battle system. Guild Wars 2 goes out of its way to shake up established conventions. Don't get me wrong, the PvE is still a content-focused theme park. It's just that the lines are really short and most everything is fun.

GW2's emphasis on exploration rather than rat-killing (though there's plenty of that) makes it just fresh enough in PVE, although the story elements are cool too (like a poor man's TOR).

The combat system is very good too. I was trying to do a mission and was getting stomped with a scepter+dagger combo I'm not familiar with. I switched it to a staff and it was far easier. Skill plays a large role here.

Can you solo it? One reason I didn't even try the first (aside from the low level cap and lack of demo) was I heard you were SOL if you didn't want to group.

[Diff-chan]

Guild Wars 1 sucked. This game is much better and solo-able.

[Compass]

k. That and the exploration and the flower-picking have me sold.

Are you going to avoid the rest of TNL, or join them.

I was waiting to tell you this Mechdeus but suspicions confirmed.

I just got an email telling me the email associated with my account has been requested to be changed.

I've never signed up for anything Guild Wars 2 related (Like Firstblood said, just Phishing lists being updated).

The confusing part is all the links in the email appear to be legit. But I'm not clicking on the confirmation link.

When I logged on last night there was a Fitzcarald, I thought dave joined up and had to make concessions for his name, but no such luck.
