Guild Wars 2: Anything to note?

[Talgurin]

Was looking around for an interesting MMO. Is GW 2 just another WoW clone? Is there anything redeemable about it? Some people really sing praises, although I'm not sure why just yet.

Its aite. Fun for a minute. Not "just another wow clone" but it is "just another modern MMO"

[FoxxHound]

It's fairly mediocre.
The worst is only being able to have a small handful of active/passive abilities selected at once. You can rotate them in/out, but not in combat.

[Talgurin]

Is the combat twitch or static like EQ / WoW? Sort of looking for maybe a twitch / Diablo style or else it'll just feel like yet another of the same old same old.

Path Of Exile then. It's what Diablo 3 should have been.

Played for a little last fall, think I was a hunter (ranger?) can't remember particularly, but was kinda cool cz abilities changes with weps with that class, I guess I'd best put it like this:

Pros: seemed versatile at times, for ex. world events where a farmer's crops would get raided and enough of a player base on hand at any point to do these events, wow-like but they added a feature where you could roll with two strikes of a direction key in any direction lol, when walking through the world you would scale to the level of the zone a lot of the time (ex. lvl 19 would turn 80 in a lvl 80 zone)

Cons: (in my opinion) wow-like at times(not that wow was bad(maybe), just played a lot of mmos like it), able to break max level in a week or two solo if online alot (cap was 80 at the time), seemed a bit easy tbh but never did the raid scene/much of the high end so can't really speak on the behalf of end game [You must be logged in to view images.

This looks awesome. I'm going to check this out!

Played both now. Path of Exile is quite good if you're into clicky combat. I'm enjoying guild wars 2 as well. Plenty to do. Free and the no group, open world thing is nice for casual gaming. I like the aspect of joining a massive train of other players to beat on champion bosses across a zone. The leveling is probably the fastest I've seen in a mmo lately though. Played about a week and a half and am at 40 already, and I'm a VERY casual gamer. Good, easy, momentary fun, both of them. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Here's my note.


This game is fucking gay.

[Noselacri]

Game was shit when it came out, and since nobody is talking about it, streaming it, competing in it, or otherwise give a flying fuck about that piece of shit ultra-casual wannabe-MMORPG, my guess is it's still exactly that.
