It's the other way around actually, GW is really bad for PvE most of the time you see people just farm over and over, whereas in WoW PvE you have huge dungeons with many challenging bosses and such. In GW nearly all aspects PvE can be farmed, not much fun in that tbh. GW is generally better in PvP, WoW arenas is boring, everyone runs the same team setup, and there isn't as much tactics involved in it, unlike Guild War's GvG.

Seriously, though, I cannot count how many times we've been babbling about GW and WoW at work and had the following conversation: "I don't get it. You level up so quickly. What do you do after that?" "Play the actual game." "...but, you're already max level!" "Yeah, and that's the point. It has an actual plot to play through." "But if you're already max level early on, how do you get better than others?"

Usually at that point I facepalm and give up. The concept of putting together a skill bar that is effective goes over their heads

I also have to QFT. This is something I have seen come up far too often. Most times, I just give up, as I'd get more results arguing with a 4 year old.

Also, I have these two RL friends who "played" GW first before saying it was utter crap and playing WoW. One friend played a Warrior with a pet and traps, and all he did was the Zaishen. The other played a W/E in pre for about 10 minutes.

Because it's great when you have a bunch of idiots who think it'd be funny to jump everywhere.

Indeed, and let's face it - even if you could jump, it'd either be unrealistically high or rather useless.

Anyone who complains about GW, put them on a crappy computer and force them to play Runescape on one of the free servers. Guaranteed they'll STFU.

I have a RS account (played before i got a computer that could handle GW) and every so often I'll log into it and within 30 seconds I'm immediately reminded how light years better GW is in ALL aspects.

A guy named White Sword has some pretty funny commentary on Guild Wars, he's an average WoW addict.

Probably the best of his videos is this one:

Notice the mumbling during the Guild Wars part, and then he's like "AAaaaaaand in WOW OMG WOW ITS WOW AND WOW *pants*"

Menlai Littiz · Aug 27, 2009, 08:54 PM // 20:54

Ugg. Why did I watch that whole damn video to the end? My first thought was: OMG... My EYES! My last thought was: OMG... My BRAIN!

That must have been one of the dumbest comparisons between GW and WOW ever

Quote:

More or less Quoted from the end;
Guildwars is limited because everyone wears the same armour but has to dye it. WOW is unlimited because you can buy different coloured shirts.

0.o

How dumb can you get and what is so superior to buying coloured shirts to being able to pick, choose or create your own colour by mixing and matching dyes?

All my friends either play Runescape and/or WoW. They can't grasp the concept of having a level 20 cap.

We've got into deep arguments about the level cap lol. "What's the point? How are you going to be better then everyone else..."

I've even had one friend go as far as saying that Guild War's PvP sucked because he watched a video on youtube about it -.-.

I had a class in school with a bunch of WoW idiots and i was the only GW player. All i had to do was mention GW and all hell broke loose. Btw.. they were very defensive of their game too. Very. Some kids that were in my school got really hardcore pissed off if you talked down about their game.

Die You Infidel · Aug 27, 2009, 09:44 PM // 21:44

the thing i really dont get in that thread is this:

Quote:

GW's most current expansion - Eye Of The North - Takes place in a the north part of Tyria with mountains, snow etc.....
WOW's next expansion - Wrath Of The Lich King - Takes place in a large snowy area

wait, what....?

how is that GW copying from WoW...
