Guild Wars 2

Post by Earthworm James » Sun Dec 04, 2011 3:05 pm

My cousin(more like brother) is working on this game. He's the type of guy who has rigorously played every MMO and RPG game to date, a total gameplay fanatic. So far, he raves about what they're doing with this game. Having seen some videos and read about it quite a bit, I am hoping this will be a great one!

Release date TBA

Your thoughts??

Whoa Whoa Whoa! Your cousin is working on the game!!! As in he's one of the devs?

I've been waiting on this game since 2006! So I'm a major fan (don't know how much lag I'll get in Australia but I'll roll with it).

Get him to tell me what the 8th profession is!

All I can say it this game has some really great potential. I'm looking forward to buying (yes actually buying) this.


Unless Diablo 3 comes out and isn't as bad as I think it will be with that RMAH

I was into the whole franchise from Guild Wars, and Nightfall. I never got into Factions, despite the fact it had a really good storyline... at the time the Priest and the Assassin classes didn't attract me. What attracted my cousin and I in Nightfall was the Dervish class. Paragon was a weaker version of a warrior and some what of a healer attached in an attack class.

I'm hoping this can create some popularity so we can create a Guild of Villuns. Last time when it was the original, not many regs got into it. A few joined the Guild my cousin had and we would all level up and help each other through the storyline.

His & my mother are identical twins and we grew up spending tons of time doing what kids do. I am not exactly sure what his role at Arena is, but I value his opinion of games, which is mostly factual & experiential.

One of my favorite parts of this game is the cross profession combos. One classes ability will add a potential combo for another class. This sort of mechanic increases team dynamics & potential team play, something I've enjoyed about TF2.

For my depth on what I only mentioned, combos @ bottom of blog: http://www.arena.net/blog/guild-wars-2- ... jon-peters

His family is either from Appalachia, or European royalty from the late 19th/early 20th century.

Clearly Mateo is only interested in his own cleverness, or lack there of. Back to GW2.

I don't know what it will be, and I am not inclined to ask, but it sounds like you're pretty certain! I was thinking some form of a Druid.

As for GW2. I may try it out, but I don't really have any interest in it. I couldn't quite get in to the first one.

there are a few concept pics floating around, looks like a mesmer or something similar. it'll likely be something similar, the new classes are a spin of old ones, such as engineer basically being a mix of trapper ranger and spirit ritualist.

btw, they have said numerous times they will announce the final class before the end of the year, so we will find out in the new couple weeks i guess
