What about the millions who quit after they killed the wilderness?

Or doesn't that count?

Runescape is free.

GW isn't.

The amount of whining is same in both. In neither case it matters.

As I've said before, this is the internet. What do you expect?

So I was thinking to myself, why us, the GW community, always wants more? Lets take Runescape for example. I have been playing it for a very long time (stopped thought). I have NEVER encounted any complains about having new stuffs in RS, like places, weapons. Maybe it does exist, but in a far small amount.
Now, I'm asking myself, why? Is it because Runescape is monthly fee, so by the law they have to make new updates each month, and GW doesn't? Dont get me wrong, but, GW isnt monthly fee, but ANet KEEPS giving us stuffs! I'm sure, NONE would make an update like ANet did with SF, and giving us new greens at prophcies, doing so many updates, care so much about this game...Most are just making the game, releasing them, making some patches and leaving it like that.

First of all, You just compared runescape with guild wars.

Second, Have you been a part of one of the bigger RS communities where the forums aren't so heavily moderated where any little ANTI-RS comment is immediately removed? I doubt it. I used to play RS for a couple of years and still check one of the biggest forums every now and then. Theres nothing but complains about the latest update. The game was somewhat alright then completely went down into the shitters with each stupid update.

Runescape CAN be free, but the membership is well crowd there.

GW is Arena Nets flagship product (only product). They're just doing what it takes to succeed. And succeed they have. My guess is GW2 will blow the doors off the old Evercrack MMO genre. What they've done is diametrically polar to the WoW/Evercrack gerbil wheel template, and it has worked wonders. If they stay the course, they'll be the counter-culture MMO. More likely the trend setters:

I like guild wars - its good because :
I dont pay so I dont HAVE to pay.
it still gets updated.
its not a competition to get uber stuff to have a *chance* at doing good- you can get max gear for free from collectors. Everything else is aesthetics.
I'm not leet at pvp but I dont care as I like stabbing monsters thats what pooter games are about to me. Having fun. When you take it too seriously and its not fun stop play as you are wasting your time.

I hope GW 2 is twice as good.

You never go to their forums then. When I played and visited the forums that's all they did.
