No, they are not nerfing Shadow Form. Yet. But Guild Wars community manager Regina Buenaobra released a preview of some skill updates and updated GvG restrictions that are coming. Since they'll be released shortly before a Monthly Automated Tournament, and affect PvP heavily, the preview is being offered to give players a chance to plan for the changes. Regina does note, however, that these are preliminary notes, and subject to change.
"The widely beloved and critically acclaimed MMORPG Guild Wars®, played for over 1 billion hours by over nine million players, is receiving a huge update to its player experience and user interface as developer ArenaNet® and co-dev partner studio 2weeks bring controller support and updated visual fidelity to the game while simultaneously consolidating all of its expansions for the new price of $19.99.
Beginning December 3, Guild Wars Reforged will launch on Steam and Windows PC." - ArenaNet.
I played the first beta of GW1 way back in May 2004, still playing it sometimes today, now I'm mostly in GW2. I will definitely go back in GW on Dec. 3 to see the improvements 😎
Put it on console and I’ll play it again. I’d didn’t do much of the endgame stuff it any at all (it’s been so long I don’t remember what I did besides level up) Since it has controller support it would be perfect for console
That sounds like a good idea imo, but I don't know if the devs have such plans. Maybe if this one turns out really well for PC, they might go down that road.
no fucking way. I really hope that they give "new" servers, so not every new player starts playing when the veterans literally have endless piles of gold (platinum in this case) and honestly as a veteran I want a reset as well. I can't believe this is actually happening. Pleaseeeeeeeeeee be good. Christmas comes early this year
I don't recall that the devs have said anything about the matter as of yet, but we shall soon find out since the drop shall be done this December 3rd.
Yeah looked around a bit and there is no reset or alternative sadly. I'm still super excited though also because they said that they will continue with some kind of updates (it's probably not content updates). Was planning to play some again in february but that will become december
I loved GuildWars.. back in the the day I would play this countless hours.. I was young and didn’t want to pay for a subscription like WoW.. My friends were stuck playing RuneScape and I thought this was next level content.
I play most my games on console now.. so I kind of wished they could bring GW2 to it. I haven’t played that game in years either.
After 20 years of ongoing service, the original Guild Wars still makes good on a promise it made that no other MMORPG has been able to truly mimic.
Been there since day 1, and the first beta, same with GW2. 20 years and they never said oh now we need to charge a monthly fee, and they only made Guild Wars no other games. I'm going to assume GW3 will have the same business model.
I got to 50 I believe but never got into it very much.It was fun but all of my friends were still playing EQ. Good to see it’s still going though.
The release date and other details have been revealed for The Complete Art of Guild Wars.
Haven't played Guild Wars in ages. Nice to see NCSoft still supports the older games even when GW2 is their next big thing.
