Guild Wars Description:

Guild Wars review:
4 stars (At least get out of Ascalon before writing a review) - Please do. I don't want to hear about how the post-apocalyptic landscape made you angry, because it's not there for long. In fact, most of the game is covered by the snowy shiverpeaks, the verdant Kryta, The vibrant Maguma and the kind of strange crystal desert. And also don't complain about the instanced areas. Do you want people asking you "How I mine for fish?" in the middle of an important quest. And no in game economy, have you been to a city? Boring PVP, have you played a guild vs guild or a 8 team Hall of Heroes? The 8 skills and level 20 thing is to keep people from becoming superpowerful and killing everyone really easy.
5 stars (An Excellent MMORPG) - In the past, I used to be a hardcore MMORPGer (WoW, RuneScape, you name it). Of course, subscriptions can cripple the enjoyment and acquiring of these games. Perhaps that's one of the main ways Guild Wars weeded in players - no monthly fee. The graphics are quite spectacular - what's more spectacular is how it can run with even the worst video cards. I use a GeForce 5500FX, which isn't too bad. However, some games like BF2 I can run on low-medium settings.

I don't want to take up much time here, so let me just tie up loose ends:

---

Pros:

Excellent Musical Track/Sounds/Graphics



Plenty Of Lore



No "Perfect" Build, so you can experiment with stats and abilities all the time



Guilds/parties/constant updates allow for replayability



No monthly fees



Cons:



More fighting/crafting/quests, less of all those random non-combat abilities, such as fishing, mining, etc

As you can see, Guild Wars' pros outnumber the cons in my eyes. So, whether you're a hardcore MMORPGer or getting the feel of MMORPGs, Guild Wars is perfect for everyone.
3 stars (Free is what you pay for.) - Mind you this is my mom's account.



When I first saw this game on a store shelf I had to look again. It was that big sign that says "FREE online play". Yes this is an mmorpg yes it has good graphics yes it has all those things that make it great but there are some things that take away from this wonderful experience.



1. ABSOLUTELY no replyability. Once you beat the game with one character there is nothing to do PvE wise. Even replaying the game with another character is the same.



2.The cutscenes suck. Mouths dont move, dialogue is bad same old graphics as usual.



3.PvE and after a while PvP gets old. Same old monsters same old fighters same old attacks again and again the only thing that changes is your scenery.



The Pros have been covered already.



This game is just OK. It's a goood introduction into the world of MMORPGs Even though World of Warcraft isn't free it's worth the money. I would recommend WoW instead of this product anytime.
