Well you're both owned by NCSoft, I don't see why some of the lineage 2 artists and graphics designers can come over to Guildwars to help with creating better environments/items/characters.

I was gunna say something.. But I decided not to. Thus it seems this post of mine is pointless.

Oh yes, and turn Guild Wars into an Anime-fest...

I think once they decided to implement assassins they turned guild wars into a anime fest

Would you care to explain that? There's nothing about GW's assassins that reminds me of anime.

Well duh, there's ninjas in anime, and assassins are clear ninjas, so assassins are anime, which results into the GW is anime!!1

Logical.

My reasoning comes from the fact that one can rarely move three feet before being confronted with a Naruto themed assassin. I actually thought "Hey these are some clever names" until my guildies told me that they were just stolen from some kids show.

Oh yes, because assassins simply don't exist IRL...

or in movies, or TV shows, or comic books...

Yes, they are directly and strictly anime. Right, gotcha.

NO! Fool! The names are not taken from anime! *lips continue moving*
The GW community is smarter than that!*cue moving lips...*
Assassins are fast! They will race and they will win! Racing is in their blood! HA HA HA!*again with the lips...*

Oh wow, since some silly narutards name their charas after the show they like, the whole GW turned into animefest?

There has been "anime-themed" names for ages before assassins.

On-topic: I kinda like the guildwars graphics.

L2's arts and graphic are not anime, but they lot more asian, like as in FF11. Lots skinny sharp jaw guys with pretty skin. GW is a bit in between, thought you can still see the influence of asian style in it as well. They might of share some art resource with NC soft, which explain the transformation from WoW-style to current style.

I think the two game should be differnt, else it would start overlaping each's market share.

But I won't mind banning all the Sasuke or Orochimarus.

If we're going to ban names, please start with all the names that are bracketed within letters. Those bother me a whole lot more than names based upon characters I've never heard of. (No anime for me thank you.)

On the other hand, sometimes I amuse myself by talking to those people.

Thank god, or who ever you worship,
Chapter 1 team is working on next chapter, factions was as much "anime" as I can take.
A-net don't let the factions team work on a chapter again without some reorganisation (as in Bigfoot's boot)

I know what you mean. Orange is a terrible colour for an assassin. Black all the way.

Factions was not anime themed. It was asian themed. Big difference. And just because they have assassins with ninja stylized armor means nothing. Why must every asian themed thing be associated with anime?

I said Thats as much "Anime" AS I CAN TAKE (read as I do Not LIKE any anime)
You bring in Lineage2 ppl and it will be ANIME.

Please note the difference between "Anime Style", "Asian Theme", and "Asian Influence Art Style".

1 thing, Naruto isn't a kids show. The American version is kinda, all American addaptations of Japanesse anime are kinda kid stuff. Watch the Jap version and you'll see there for a maturer audiance. On topic, some of the Linage weapoins and armor is kinda cool, other than that, that game sucks.
