Hi from tominater(need help) - Guild Wars Forums

tominater · Feb 12, 2007, 07:33 PM // 19:33

hi, i've been hearing about guild wars for a while now and really want to buy the game, the trouble is, which one?
I really need a hand on deciding which one to start off with, bearing in mind i haven't ever played any of them before. I don't know whether i'd be better starting with prophecies because it's the first, or getting nightfall cause it's the most up-to-date, not to dismiss factions either which could be better than both.
I'd really appreciate your help.
Thx

Check the sticky at the top of the forums here. It does a lot better job of explaining everything than I have the time to do.

Personally, I recommend starting with Prophecies. It's the best value for your money being the largest continent and getting skills as rewards for quests.

I would go with prophecies...skills are cheaper (quest rewards), the "tutorial" is very in-depth, and it's the cheapest to buy.

Not only that, but I finished Nightfall before I finished Prophecies and I probably would have understood some stuff towards the end of NF better had I finished Prophecies first.

So..my vote: Prophecies
