Video Game Reviews of Guild Wars
Customer Review: Simply Perfection
Summary: 5 Stars
Overall, if you like mmorpg's where you grind for levels, enjoy grief playing, and only play to PK, then you will hate GW. This game is for a more mature player who instead of seeking greater levels to turn the tide of battle, use their own strategies on a balanced play field. Also, you don't have to worry about other players ruining the game for you because you can only interact with them during guild battles or in towns. So there will be no kill stealing, or ambushes to ruin your game.
Description of Guild Wars
Guild Wars is a new kind of MMORPG experience. It eliminates the less exciting aspects of world-map play by using a mission-based design, while still keeping the features that make massive online role-players great. Make new allies in towns or outposts, form a party, and then go tackle a quest together. Your party always has its own unique copy of the quest map, so camping, kill-stealing, and long lines to complete quests are all things of the past. As you play out your quest, you have an unprecedented level of freedom: Your magic can build bridges and open up new pathways, or it can burn down forests and villages. Best of all, you'll never meet new players only to discover that you can't play with them or compete against them because their characters are on a different server than yours -- in Guild Wars, all characters live in one seamless world.Fantasy Games
