Happy birthday, Guild Wars!

I remember launch day like it was yesterday, I skipped school and went without sleep for at least 24 hours. Good times.

Can't wait for Guild Wars 2!

I remember the preview events before it came out.

Used to have a blast waiting for it to open at 3AM and start playing all weekend.

To be fair, there are also human made games that release and lack any fun at all either.

jznrpg32d ago

But all of the great games have been made by humans

One is by choice, the other is a feature.

Guild Wars 2 been playing for 14yrs, 1st beta. This is just one company I support, Arenanet and NCSoft, even though I torrent, there are a few PC companies I will buy from. "PlayStation’s Horizon MMO spin-off, Horizon Steel Frontiers." I feel this will be good, NCSoft is a good developer/publisher.

It’s a tool. Use it elevate things and get it done faster. I’m sorry but not every game made by humans is good. If this can help things, then I fully embrace it.

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 😎

TGG_overlord192d ago

Sweet =) I hope that you (and others) will have a great time with this one.

jznrpg191d ago

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

TGG_overlord191d ago

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.

Michiel1989191d ago

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

TGG_overlord191d ago

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.

Michiel1989191d ago

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

mkis007191d ago

Here's hoping gw2 gets some enhancements soon. I want better draw distances.

TGG_overlord191d ago

I bet that's coming as well ;)

Travesty191d ago

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.

20 Years Ago, Guild Wars Made a Promise That it Still Hasn't Broken Today

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.

jznrpg395d ago

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.
