Here since WPE,

but not playing much lately (actually nothing)

losing interest in games in general, heh.

Riceboi · Jan 25, 2007, 07:28 PM // 19:28

I didn't play betas, but I've played starting less than a month after the game came out.

greendc27 · Jan 25, 2007, 08:20 PM // 20:20

I've been here since maybe 2 months after Prophecies came out. Although I only played for a month before coming back a couple of months later due to really bad lag when I first started.

Been around since World Preview Event. Anyone else remember when The Wilds was such a hard mission >_< ?

Oh yeah. Dam Centaurs, Trolls!!!

This game has come a long way, and as i read many people are beginning to lose interest. That's no problem, it a part of life. People see a new game, new adventures, play it then notice the same pattern after the first expansion. Then the break through in the second expansion offers many more features never seen before. but the same pattern of missions come out, so people begin to loose interest.

Started back in beta whe the chat screens were overwhelmed with advertising prompts. Oh brother! This is the first game that has me farming my brains out. Because i have chosen to stick primarly to the PvE side. I still have many more opportunities on the PvP side. Why i think many people loose interest is because they are waiting for someone else to show them a new build or new tactic to use in order to figure out how to make playing the game easier. Many people need to start playing the game, by themselves and understand how to structure their tactics to understand the gameplay a lot better. This will open up meeting more knowledgeable players allowing them to fully enjoy it.

Well im just going on and on. I love this game very much and i have met many cool people along the way. (as well as many bad) but that's part of the game. Well for all the hardcore gamers that love to play GW and will continue to play until GW is no more, see ya around. for those who are loosing interest, i say find another game if you wish to continue playing games because maybe you may get to the point were you no longer want to play games at all.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Myrkwid · Jan 26, 2007, 03:21 AM // 03:21

Been playing since february BWE 2005 and preordered CE the same month.
But I'm currently not really acitve anymore, basically just returned to check on the promised updates.

{IceFire} · Jan 26, 2007, 04:06 AM // 04:06

2 months after release

Arcador · Jan 26, 2007, 08:13 AM // 08:13

I played the alpha - 25 lvl there :P

and for the offtopic - play when you feel so, If you force yourself to do it, it will bring only negative feeling (like some other grind mmorpgs). I do such.
It is completely normal to lose interest in something if you do it constantly. I even get tired of using a PC for once? That is not even remotely possible :P. So I took a brake.

was gonna do the last beta event before release but missed out...so i started on release day

Lord Dobo · Jan 26, 2007, 09:56 AM // 09:56

I had kept an eye on it through articles and such long before release, but I never did beta. It was my first MMO, I even passed up trying other things for around a year because it sounded so cool. But when it finally launched I didn't have high speed, and conivinced I wouldn't enjoy it until I did, didn't actually buy it until about a month after launch. Very glad I did. Loved most of my time on it, have ten characters, spent around 2000 hours on it, and my longest time away has been about a week or so.

Unfortunately, after having just posted in a thread about how I hedge the fence on how I feel about the way the community has changed, I'm now depressed about all the things I miss about how things used to be and am now wondering if I should just look for a new game. I'll probably hang around and wait for info on CH4, but I think they are starting to loose another "hardcore" player.

But who knows, maybe by morning my interest will have returned... the smooth combat system seems to draw me in to kill just one more monster.

art of war · Jan 26, 2007, 11:54 AM // 11:54

well i have been playing guild wars since day of the release of Prophecies.The only reason i really play it is all the people i know now and my friends. Also, helping out the new people makes you feel real good: cool:

Been playing since August 2005.

Jaythen Tyradel · Jan 26, 2007, 02:43 PM // 14:43

Been here since the beta weekends...
I finally got around to completing Prophecies this past fall and two weeks ago I beat Nightfall. I am now working on Factions.
I like some of the updates, some I don't like, but I still play.

Velath · Jan 26, 2007, 07:41 PM // 19:41

Been here since release day though I took a break in my 4th year of university for several months from Proph.

I probably enjoyed Factions the most of all the chapters, though they've all been good, but I took 3 characters through NF very fast one after the other with a guildie and heroes so it started to get old. I'm on once per week or so now, but work has also cranked up and I can't devote 2+ hours an evening anymore and that ruins most things I'd do with my guild.

I'll have to see if Chapter 4 renews my interest or if GW just becomes another game I pick up from time to time like the Civilizations...

Melisande · Jan 27, 2007, 02:26 AM // 02:26

Don't remember exactly when I started but it was couple months before the sorrows furnace release, does that count?

Brett Kuntz · Jan 27, 2007, 09:59 PM // 21:59

Allmightybob · Jan 28, 2007, 11:20 AM // 11:20
