Comment This is what I like about Guild Wars. (Score 1) 220
Guild Wars offers some features other MMOs don't. This is why I play:
1. No subscription fee.
2. At any time I can simply quit the program without worrying about getting my corpse, XP loss, camping in a safe spot, or training people. The next time I log in I will be in the last city place I was in, with full gear, and no xp penalty.
3. They have designed the game from the ground up with the mantra that Skill > Time put into the game.
A. The level cap is 20. Just by doing the missions and quests in the first half of the world you can easily get to level 20.
B. You can bypass leveling and create a level 20 character that is for PVP only. You can unlock all of the skills for PVP by either just leveling up your normal character or by fighting in PVP battles and earning points for the upgrades you need.
4. Their streaming content means no more 18 hours of downtime while they patch the game.
5. The game has only been out for 2 months. I was in beta, but still this is a very new game. ArenaNet's Baby. They are taking very good care of it.
6. They constantly actively listen to the community on their own hosted boards and of the fansites boards.
I doubt anyone here who games could ever have a perfect game for them. But these 6 reasons rank high on my "must have" list for a MMO. Just my 2 Cents.
