Which game to choose? - Guild Wars Forums

jedibob5 · Mar 08, 2008, 01:16 AM // 01:16

OK, so I want to buy another Guild Wars game, but I only want to get one. I already have Proph and Factions, so I can get either NF or EOTN. Which do you think I should choose, the 50$ full campaign or the 40$ expansion?

I have both, and I really enjoy a lot more EotN than NF, although I would still go for NF if you need the character slots. If you don't need em, you can't go wrong with EotN =P (it's also cheaper)

seriously... its you who will be playing it, so get some basic info about both games and pick the one that sounds better to you
if you dont care either way just flip a coin or something

This is my info gathering. Part of it at any rate. I'm just trying to get some opinions from other buyers to see if they liked it before I make a choice.

you will not have to pay that much to get the games, either, unless you are buying them online.
if you go to a store, you can get nightfall for ~$20-30; don't know about eotn. so, if you have only $50 to spend, you might be able to get both.

i would recommend nightfall though. it's a whole campagin, not just dungeons and grinding.

Nightfall
extra character slots
paragon / derv classes
longer storyline
ability to get legendary titles (if that's your thing)
more heroes
more new skills (and elites)

GWEN
1 hero of each profession
grind titles for armor
slightly more flexible storyline (also shorter)
dungeons out the wazoo
cheaper
only 100 new skills w/ no elites
Hall of Monuments (if you plan on continuing into GW2)
amusing pve skills

just some general data. Hope it helps with your decision.

This week I have seen EotN on sale at Target for $9.99, however out of stock. If you could snag one of those, its definitely worth it. Then heck you could get NF too.

Meggle · Mar 08, 2008, 01:56 AM // 01:56

Get Both, as far as i know there are places selling EOTN for $9.99 so yea go for it.

Or get NF, char slots + access to classes + easy $$ from mishes etc = win

Correct.

Eye of the North is being sold for $10 at Target. Some stores like Best Buy and Wal-Mart have price match guarantees as well.

If you are on a budget, that's a great deal.
