Well, it's pretty obvious, I think.

So, I just picked this up on Sunday (BestBuy had it in stock...woot!)
Anyway, fired it up and logged in. First thing I noticed, I need to upgrade my rig (which is pretty good right now) to take advantage of all the graphic settings. Very anxious to do that. Rolled a Charr Thief. Combat is VERY different, but very very entertaining. Honestly, I thought I would absolutely hate to have to 'dodge', but I actually quite like it. Combat takes some getting used to so I am still learning how everything works. For example, my main attack (button 1 by default), when I hover over it, it lists several different attacks and I am not quite sure when/how they work or are used...little confusing. It DEFINITELY is different from traditional MMO's, but so far, it is refreshing. There is a learning curve, but thats cool... I tried out PvP (I am a big time PvP'r...PvE is meh for me, but i still enjoy it). I was floored when I saw all the different items you can get for PvP. Its like two different games really. PvP and PvE. Did a few matches last night and so far, after a few hours playing, i like it. I like that you cant just steamroll somebody due to gear difference. Combat is actually challenging and entertaining. I tried to queue up for WvWvW, but I had to log after waiting about 10mins because it was full. Definitely want to try that out. I tried a Thief and Ranger. Both are fun. Want to try a Necro and Mesmer. BTW, can you only have a total of 5 character slots across all the servers? |

For those of you still wondering if you should buy this game, here's a pretty comprehensive review that was posted just yesterday on YouTube. It's reasonably long, but if you're even remotely interested it ought to hold your interest.
Incidentally, if you have this game, make sure that you have a UNIQUE password for your game account. My password was pretty complex, but it was the same as a password for something else that had apparently been discovered at some point, so I got hacked. Hoping that ArenaNet will restore my account soon, because I'm itching to play more of this game! |

so is this correct about PvP? You can only get better looking items, not better items like with more damage or more armor or whatever? They are all going to have the same stats? But are there different runes? I made a few PvP items at the mythic forge and they had an open rune slot, so maybe you can make runes? I still don't understand how it works.
So that's when skill selection and actually player skill will come into play, I like that. It's not just a gear check, thats cool with me if that's the case. |
