Define your acronyms please. Us old folks get left behind. And people accuse us vets of being impossible to understand.

Since I know Guild Wars 2 won't have a subscription, I'm assuming B2P means Buy to Play. If I'm right P2P means Pay to Play?

That kinda puts Blade and Soul out of the running for me. Even though it looks pretty.

But to be honest what I'm interested in regarding Guild Wars 2 is the promise of a changing dynamic world that response to Player actions. You burn down a town? It'll stay burned down until someone comes in and rebuilds it. Stuff like that is more interesting then the graphics. Lets see if they can keep that oath though.

I'm actually very interested in Guild Wars 2.

Used to be big into WoW, but it got old quick. Especially during Cataclysm, and I'm not expecting to head back for Mist of Pandara.


But yeah, Guild Wars 2 is showing off interesting new forms of combat, and new take on the persistent state world...and considering I JUST bought a new laptop, I should be able to play it on the new hardware.


I'm not to interested in Blade and Soul.

yes you are correct :)

and yes the reasons stated above are also what am looking forward to.


Combat that is more visual,location & movement and skill combos with other peoples skills all become importent

Also .. NO HEALING CLASS !!! :D the holy trinity is no more! instead each class has its own heals and or heals that can help the group in there own special way, that is of course if you group up with people, you will still be grouping up unofficial by doing the dynamic events.

Mage puts fire on ground > archer uses a skill called "whirling defense> which by being in fire sends fireballs toward enemy.

Take a look at all the profession vids and the trailer they have it looks wicked!
