Curse

So it was. When I first heard the GW2 rumors.

Suddenly I had this emotional stomach ache. And I realise, what a big part of my life that GW has been since 2003, when I first started following it, like a religious nut. It has never taken over my life or something, but GW has always been there for me. On the side. Like that friend you can almost count on. He is there as much as you need him.

I am shocked. And I am scared. I was naive enough to think that GW would last at least 10 years before we where to see a sequels. Thats what I hoped for. The promise of possibilities for the upgration of the GW engine has me in massive hope.
I don't want a sequel. I like my characters way to much.

And unlike all other MMOs where I would not change to a newer game, because of the time previously invested, in this case, its merely because of my love for my characters that I feel are a part of me.

Even if GWs server would still be up, I would hate to have the focus being drawn to a full fledged sequel.

Is it wrong to have this kind of affaction for a game? To actually oppose a sequel, because of the love for the original and it's expansions/extensions? I have had way to little time to enjoy this game in all its glory. I hope Eye of the north is true, but I would not want to see a GW 2 until 2015... And even then I would almost hope they would do something else. Perhaps do it in a completely different universe.

There is only one Guild Wars in my heart. R..I.P.

I gotta say my heart dropped when i read about it.

ANet have a serious amount of experience with GW. Over Four releases, and countless patches, they must have nearl mastered it. now they get to start from scratch, but unlike last time, they have 5 years of experience, they will know what will work and what won't. GW 2 should hopefully be GW but even better, nicer and bigger. The only thing that i'll miss is my charatcers, but it'd ruin it for me if i could bring them into GW2, I wouldn't get to start from scratch again.

2 Active threads on the speculation of Guild Wars 2, the first of which is directly related to this topic, and 1 suggestions thread. The concern is a valid one, but entirely based on unverified speculation, and as this thread has already turned out somewhat poorly as it is, I suggest shifting discussion of this to pre-existing threads.
