Hellgate: London looks very fun and I will get that - however, I am addicted to GW and have already preordered GW:EotN and will preorder GW:2, too.

I'm not pissed off at GW or A-net, but I am getting a bit bored with GW. I've played the game for about 2 years now and I think I just need a little time off. I'll still almost certainly get EotN, but for now I'm going to take a break. In the mean time I'm going to be trying out WoW. I doubt I'll get too into it, but it will be something to do until I get the itch to play more GW.

EvE Online is an awesome game. People will come back when GW EN comes out.

I've been reading, and playing various console games on my new Plasma TV.

To be honest I'm sick of the endless time sinks in MMORPGs, and I don't see myself playing Guildwars or anything like it in the future. Maybe if I get into the Warhammer Online Beta, I'll play around with that, but otherwise I'll stick to games work better with my schedule.

I only came to Guildwars recently, after getting sick of WoW. I quit that game due to the high barrier of entry for PvP, and thought I'd give GW a try due to its supposedly reduced grind. Honestly though, for someone new to the game, the amount of time and money required to get competitive isn't really any better in GW than in WoW. Why should I spend 150 bucks and all the time unlocking things when I can download F.E.A.R. combat for free and jump right into some fun, casual team battles?

Best of luck to those of you that stick around, I hope GWEN turns out as cool as it's looking for all of you.

With all the constant changes to GW even the "untouchable" pre, and the big failure campaign Grindfall, with its heros to kill pve and a complete disregard to older campaigns and their serious problems (leeching fort aspenwood? horrible warrior ai?) or PvE in general, i've had it with GW. Been here since 2005, own all three campaigns, horribly dissapointed now. I'm moving onto real life and maybe some of the free Korean MMORPGs... if any of them turn out to be any good. I won't be back for EotN or GW2 after the way GW treated me.

I MIGHT try GW:EN, but most likely I'll be into Age of Conan...

Guild Wars is like an ex-girlfriend. You get years of good times, then all of a sudden something happens you just can’t forgive, and that’s it, you’re gone. I come back to this forum about every few weeks to see if she realized just how badly she messed up.

It’s weird. I was so excited about Hard mode, GW:EN, and GW2, I spent all my time hyping everything I found out to my alliance. Then it came…

SR changes, Loot Scaling, and the Armor Stacking change are a step too far. There are ways too deal with them, but it just isn’t fun anymore. It’s like the heart of the game is missing. It’s more complicated than a metaphor, and gets deep into what feels like hypocrisy.

So will I come back? No. Not unless I don’t get into the Warhammer beta. And Anet would need to reverse the above three things, basically admitting that changing core mechanics was a horrible idea.

Will I buy GW:EN? Not likely. I might if I run out of things to do and I want to give my elementalist closure. I’m currently playing all the games I bought over the past 6 months and haven’t played because GW used to be good.

GW2? Funny, I would have said absolutely, but now no way.

So what am I moving too? Warhammer Online : Age of Reckoning! I, and my guild, are all warhammer fans. Two of us for 13 years. So there is no question how excited we are. How could you not love the cinematic trailer?

And watch podcasts # 3, 5, and 7. Tell me that’s not how factions should have been! The game looks so awesome!
http://www.warhammeronline.com/english/media/podcast/

And am I imagining things? Lol, I swear I’ve seen some of you guys over at the forums I now hang out on, Warhammer Alliance.

I've been playing Alliance Battles lately, they're good for a quick half-hour of GW and then I can go do something else.

I've been playing a lot of Monster Hunter Freedom on my new PSP.

GW:EN'll be fun for a while, I'll stick around; GW has been good to me.

To keep me around, I'd say what is needed is a little more of a level playing field. The gap between the serious pvper and the casual pvper is just too wide (and for that matter, the same goes for the serious pve'er and the casual pve'er); you either get it or you don't, there's no intermediary step anymore. There's no more discovery, it's all been done. Aside from a re-imagining of the game, I can't see any new feature or area being much more than a temporary fixation.

GW was the only game I ever got into... but lately? soooo boring x_x I don't have the slightest idea how to entertain myself in GW....

mostly I log on to chat, but my guild died =/ now Im in a new one with people I dont know... its just.. different? all of GW is different... And honestly.. I dont think it was a change for the better... Oh well... GW you were great and I loved you.. but we're through ;p

I'll probably get GWEN... but Ive already decided not to get GW2 I love my chars... all of them unique in there own way....

lvl 1 in 15k with more on her map than some of my 20s... Rit barbie with every armor set I get bored enought to buy... Survivor sin cause it makes me giggle.... title RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO mini monkette... can't play them in GW2? nah no thanks I dont feel like starting over

Until GWEN Im going to keep whoring out my title RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO.... wonder how many titles I can max before september.... with full time work... should be interesting

mainly Im buying GWEN so I can see if theres FINALLY a use for those damn tapestry shreds Ive been hauling around for two years... THERE BETTER BE!!! >_<

Torn between my wii and CoH/CoV, tb h most of the NCsoft gmes are pretty decent if your looking for something to do - Dungeon runners is always good for a luagh (And FREE!)...hmm some of the problems with other games ive played like EVE (bleh tat was bad) and even my beloved CoH/CoV, I do miss the community involvement we get from Anet...some of the other games seem lacking - I think they need tripple scroll weekend

Ummm, I left back in Feb when I realised how dreadfully dull Nightfall turned out to be. Currently playing WoW and loving it. Looking forward to Bioshock, Mass Effect and SC2.

I just think Anet needs step it up in EotN and GW 2, or else I'm quitting. GW is fun, but nothing lasts forever. Good show Guild Wars! I got quite a lot out of ya but sadly you're not so great as you once were.

Morrowind. When i get my computer upgraded so morrowind doesn't screw up the resolution to 800x600
Right now I've kinda gotten bored of GW a little. Still fun though, however still can't match morrowind.
I only got GW to fill the massive gap (7 months) between morrowind screwing up and when i upgrade my computer.

Shot online and various other games with my bf. Looking at how the Guild wars has declined from something with so much potential in beta to what it is now in Pve and PvP I'd have to be really convinced to whether I want to spend anymore on Anet's products.

Looking forward to Hellgate and Tabula Rasa.

Anet would have to do major updates and overhauls in both areas of PvP and PvE for me to want to purchase GW:EN at the moment.
