They're all great games, but I'm going to have to say that Prophesies is my favorite. It kept me interested the longest. I actually enjoyed all the classes in Prophesies, I enjoyed finding new ways to solo difficult areas in that game, and unlike the other 2 chapters, it didn't feel diluted.

In Factions, I hate Ritualists, and in Nightfall, I hate Dervishes. Also, It now feels like there are too many skills for the core classes. And the new areas to explore in Factions and Nightfall, aren't exciting enough. They don't give me the same feelings I experienced when exploring new areas in Prophesies. They all feel like I've seen them before.

Just my opinions.

I voted for Factions. Besides the lower quality of the story, I thought that it improved everything else (skills, equipment, etc.). Nightfall is sort of meh in my opinion. Heros are nice, the two new classes, and the storyline is improved (still not as good as prophecies in my opinion). However the bugs and incompleteness (Elite mission and missing hero anyone?), not to mention the insignia system have me already waiting for the next chapter.

Propechies. Why? The has many themes, as jungle, snow ++.. We had to use real players instead of ugly heroes. Things were fun there.

Factions

I like just being able to go through the story line. All this extra grinding of sunspear crap is boring. And leveling heroes is pretty stupid too. Prophecies was good for nostalgia but thats about it.

Alliance battles and Fort Aspenwood are awesome. Nightfall doesnt really offer anything new like that. Heroes are good but having to equip them all and level them at the same time sucks.

Factions and Nightfall are about equal, and if it weren't for the heros, I would have voted for Factions. If only we could vote twice....

Factions is the best one for me, not just for what it is, but for all of its potentials and what it could've been. It has twice more end-game contents (AB/Aspenwood/Jade Quarry/Urgoz/Deep) than either Prophecy or Nightfall.

Nightfall is great but I donot think there is anything that beats Prophecies right now.

the main reason i liked prophecies so much is because we had a long time to get into a groove, rather than having to start over again every 6 months.

by starting over again i mean going through a new campaign, capping skills, leveling characters.

I liked having the helpful people who had already done everything multiple times, who would just be randomly helpful - i've even stopped doing that because there's just so much new stuff!

Default Prophecies was the best

Prophecies was long to get upto lvl 20 but the elation when you got to lvl 20 was fantastic. It made better players I think as they had to learn the game to get to a high lvl. ( not all btw lol) Even in Prophecies you had noob players who had got to lvl 20 on the back of others but 90% of lvl 20 Prophecies players new how to play in a team as well as the henchway.
Nightfall is fantastic as an addon and I love the hero's as it enable good players to do missions on there own when required, with out waiting for that Healer monk or Prot monk turning up lol.
All in all Prophecies as my vote, lots of memories and good friends.....

Prophecies but only because it overwhelmed me and I felt like there was so much to do and explore. Replayability here is unmatched by any other chapter. Nightfall definetly comes in a close second. And factions well...its beyond me how anyone prefered this over Prophecies or Nightfall, then again thats just my opinion.

Prophecies because the game was young then and not burdened by all this new crap that came from Factions. Nightfall is a close second though, good for them because if it bombed like Factions I doubt we'd be waiting for a guildwars 4

I chose Prophecies simply because of the scale. There was so much there than in the latest 2 releases. They are supposed to be "Chapters" not "expansions," and are to be stand-alone games. I can't help but think they're a little bit lacking compared to the big brother.
