i started with a ranger to completion then made a necro( lvl 18) and now went to the cookie cutter ( sarcasim) w/m. and i have to say i'm having alot of fun with my warrior and the game is still fun to play. i love the feeling of questing with a group and that almighty gold drops. its exciting. i love this game.

I love this game too! I only get to play 2 or 3 times a week, and I keep trying out new characters all the time, so even though I do the same stuff over again with the new characters I still haven't gotten tired of this game yet. It is my favorite game I own, and I have a lot of games!. I was somewhat depressed about the trader prices when I tried to buy things the last couple weeks, but that's all been fixed since last week's update so I am back up to max level of game enjoyment.

Don't be afraid to make whatever profession or skill combos you want to try out. Most people who would make fun of someone's build are usually jerks that deserve to be ignored. There are plenty of people to group and socialize with that make the game enjoyable. Try the "Birds of a Feather LFG" thread!

I usually bash my face into my desk repeatedly out of anger while playing. But that may be because I'm in that phase of the game where I'm just killing the same mobs over and over and over so I can get UAS.

I still love pvp though.

I cringe and feel like hanging myself whenever I log into the game.

I spend atleast 10 minutes every day hovering my mouse over the uninstall button.

I daydream about ways to overtake A.net and fix what I once loved.

The only thing that keeps me from doing all of these is the fact that i heart my guild.

Uninstall it, no one cares. I have clocked over 400 hours and have YET to beat the game on one char. I do EVERY quest, spend TONS of time in UW/FoW, help guildies, see the scenery.

It's a pitty you can simply finish the PVE in this game. I've done everything in PVE now, except for Southern-Shiverpeaks, quest, exploring map, looking for collectors. If you just started the game, you've got much to do

Much fun on the way through!

And TheCrusader, what armor is that Warrior wearing in your avatar?

Me likes.

Glydan · Aug 16, 2005, 11:13 AM // 11:13

I haven't played too long either, currently at the D'Alessio mission, and i absolutely love this game. The scenery is amazing, i wish to do every quest, unlock all things, and eventually have exploration trips with the guild around the whole map =D I have a long way until i finish this game ^^

aismailuk · Aug 16, 2005, 11:35 AM // 11:35

I agree

While I am not a person that has time to play this game for 5 hours a day, I find it interesting whenever I come back to play on it. I love the fact that there is plenty of variety in terms of play. Quests / Missions with henchies or PuGs (or guildies if you are in a guild) - or you can wander off exploring the surrounding areas (even came across elona reach by exploring). I also have enough money to keep my character as I want, while i am gradually saving money in storage ready to bring my next character post-searing.

Oh and one more thing.....don't listen to people who say certain builds are rubbish (i.e: Rangers), as long as you learn how to use different professions skill sets, all builds are as useful as each other.

I'm about halfway through this game and I still love it =) I like the approach to storytelling that they did; I hope they get more creative when Sorrow's and Chapter 2 roll along. I'm all for story in a massively multiplayer game like this. It's like we're all watching this movie and get to play a part in it, which is kinda neat. The presentation is great.

I think the game is best enjoyed in small doses and with friends you know in real life. Great Job Arena Net!

Not when your Wife stuffed it full of Her Music The reason I bought her a Ipod for Christmas was so I didn't have to hear her music while she works out. She thought I was so thoughtful to get her that little toy....little did she know that I was giving myself a nice quiet Christmas present. hehehe.

As for this thread. I still enjoy this game quite a bit. Especially when I take a Doctor prescribed Pain Medication before playing.

I call it: "Feel No Pain" Spell.

EDIT: Typ0s...DOH!

moose87 · Aug 16, 2005, 02:07 PM // 14:07

yea the game is great. i like the fact that you can log in for an hour or so, complete a quest or two, and log off feeling like you accomplished something. great for us folks who actually have lives outside of pc games (which seems to be most guild wars players).

moonshadow · Aug 16, 2005, 02:09 PM // 14:09

I also love the game...dang, if I don't like a game (which there have been many!), I just uninstall and read until I find another game I do like.

Guild Wars is the first game that has held my interest for several months. The scenery, the quests, the missions, meeting new people, the ever fluctuating and exciting economy, lol...I just love it all.

I also created a W/Mo not realizing it had such a bad rap. I also have an E/Mo who is awesome to play, but I'm still struggling with my W/Mo, trying to find a unique build. I guess I'm just used to the big damage my E/Mo puts out...I'm trying to work on a fight/smite build now, but I'm just winging it really. :P Any suggestions would be great!

Santanus_Perro · Aug 16, 2005, 02:14 PM // 14:14

Don't worry about being W/Mo. Each class has the potential to be a cookie cutter class. It all depends on the skills you use, your style of play, and the attribute point distribution. I have played W/Mo from the very first World Event, through the Beta Weekends, and have logged some 250 hours of play time. So I feel confident in saying you have picked a good class to play for PvE.
