Coming from Lineage II - Guild Wars Forums

Thorcin · May 02, 2005, 10:45 PM // 22:45

Hey, I'm currently playing Lineage II and am starting to get bored with it. I saw Guild Wars and I'm contemplating whether or not I want to buy it. The graphics and gameplay look pretty cool from what I've seen, and I totally like the idea of no monthly fees. After seeing all this, I'm wondering if I should really leave Lineage to come play this instead. Ganking and eBay have completely ruined the game, and I think if I played this game I won't have to deal with that. Any former Lineage players have input on how this game is compared to L2?

I hated L2 so bad....i think it doesnt matter if you quit L2 or not though because there isnt a monthly fee.

I`ve not played L2 but lets say you pay your $50 and play for a month. That would be like playing any other normal game but we all know if you were to buy a new game say like HL2 you`d only get about a weeks worth of play if that much.

I doubt you'll get away from eBay with this, but doubt it will get as bad as other MMO's

I played Lineage II for about a year and 6 months and have already found Guild Wars to be more enjoyable. The best part...which only someone that has played Lineage II is that there is NO GRIND! You'll never just be sitting in a field somewhere killing the same mobs over and over again. There's more quests than you know what to do with. And they help you discover the world.

The people seem to be nicer and grouping isn't much of a hassle. PM me if you decide to go with Guild Wars and I'll show you around and send you a clan invite. My name is Voltron Ender.

See ya in game!
