Depends on how the game captivates me. With WoW myself and my wife played about 4-5 hours a night, and about 10 hours on the weekend.

So, it will come down to how much we enjoy the game.

Considering as it stands right now, the most I get to play a week is a couple of hours, probably around the same.

Realistically, as much as I can, but I predict that after finals and summer begins. I will, realistically, lose my social life completely and you know... I'm ok with that

Lucky for me I currently have a LOT of time on my hands. Which can be readily apparant by my posting in here. It is currently my only fix as the closest I can get to the guildwars community since I cannot log in and play. I will have to say that I will be spending horrible gross amounts of time online which will only be amplified by some other great person to group with. I really hate soloing. And I really enjoy the adventure aspect. PvP will always be there for me when I am ready. And I don't think i'll be ready for at least a month or two after the game is realeased. I will be adventuring too much. So if you like to adventure I'll be there

Forget what you thought you knew about online gaming.

I played Diablo 2 hours a day and as many as I could on the weekends months after it came out. Six months later it was wearing off because I'd already done everything, so I played about an hour on weekdays (when I could find time) and many two, three hours on the weekends. Of course Guild Wars won't have this problems, so I say consistantly 10 hours a day, onto infintity.

After the initial shock of being able to play whenever I want wears off (I give it a week or so), I'll probably be on 3-4 hours total during the weekdays, and that same amount over the weekend. 6-8 total per week...ish.

Let's see, beta started at 3am my time.
I was up at 7, started playing.
Give an hour for food, bathroom, social with parents, etc.\
Went to bed at 2am the next day.

So that's about.......18 hours that day, another 4 or 5 saturday and about 7 more on sunday. But that was beta (crunch time). On Release I expect 3-4 hours a day, I'll have finished finals by then.

During the betas I hardly sleep.

A week after release I will still be insomniatically playing through the game.

After 2 weeks? I'll still be playing. But I would be fanatically sitting in front of my computer without looking at the sun. Maybe 5 hours a day if I can somehow figure out a way to study for finals and play computer games at the same time. Maybe make it type in chemical formulas while i'm killing stuff?

How much will I play? Probably the same amount of time I do now, which is a couple of hours a day.

I tend to divide my time between browsing forums, game, and idling in IRC.. but half the time, I'm doing all three at once.

As for sleep, I start slurring when I don't get sleep! It gets pretty awful.
