I just recently went back to GW. I have to admit, if you want the control of the game in your hands and not be at the mercy of "twinkers", AH pricing, and crafters who think their crafts are worht a king's ransom, then it what you want.
WoW combat is 80% gear and 20% skill.
GW combat is 70% skill and 30% character build.
Notice gear is not really an equation in GW. As long as you keep up to date with your gear, you dont need to worry about "twinking" to get the quest done or be good in PvP.
Yes, GW is short lived, since the max level is 20, but so what? With my return to GW, I thought I would hate the lvl 20 max. TBH, its not bothering me much anymore than what it did in the past. I have all three from the franchise and I am finding Nightfall and Factions to be very much fun.
My brother, a long time friend of mine, and I play it, and we been having quite a bit of fun. We got a guild, but its only the 3 of us (for now). And we enjoy its gameplay and its graphics much more than WoW.
Yes, PvP can be sometimes a pain, but thats the same for any MMOG that has PvP. But its has a lot more fun than WoW's PvP.
Later I plan on getting the expansion when its released, and then GW2. So far, it the only RPG, I seems to come back to and stick with.
If you decide to play it, you can find me in game almost daily, but at sporatic times.
IGN: Zenous Zi, lvl 18 pure nuker with pet (Pyro E/R). Looking for a Pheonix to tame..... Factions
