Sadly though, natural progression dictates that the older games will always lose population as people move on. I too miss the glory days of Guild Wars, porting into Lion's Arch or Ascalon City to find it teeming with life in all regions. But this is just the wants of one very sincere player about a game he really enjoys and would like to see flourish. Probably due to me never posting much on there to begin with. I don't really expect much of a response on this thread - but the last time I made something like this was on Reddit and for some reason bots just usually delete it for some odd reason.
HOW TO PLAY GUILD WARS 2 FREE SERIES
I'm not saying Guild Wars had the popularity of these two, but there are a lot of people who probably prefer the original over the new one and it would be SO awesome to see the original series have some life in it.
HOW TO PLAY GUILD WARS 2 FREE FREE
to generate revenue from but currently the game is pretty empty in most parts because a lot of people don't really feel like forking over the cash when Guild Wars 2 is free to play and more 'modern' and highly stylized (Though I personally will always prefer the Guild Wars original look.) Obviously you'd still have all the cosmetics, EoTN, the PvP and Skill packs, etc. This would include Prophecies, Factions, and Nightfall.
The game is just not suited to what I like - and hey, that's perfectly fine! Because there are plenty others who do like it.īut what I suggest is making the first three guild wars games in the series free to play. I don't think any changes to the game or new content will ever change this fact.
I personally don't like Guild Wars 2, and I never ever see my self playing it. But I'm more or less over that now.Īnyways, my idea is this. It especially bugged me when the game went free to play. I'd buy each expansion to try out the new content but I just could never ever really get into the game what so ever. I would FORCE my self to play it in hopes I could just find something I really liked about it. I've played Guild Wars 2 both off and on. Now I understand when you develop a new game within a series you have to try new ideas and concepts that you would think improve on what currently exists. Though when it released and I played it for the first time I was kind of sad seeing how the two games were almost completely different in the way I played. They were always pretty awesome in the first series and I was delighted to know that I could finally play them. Obviously when Guild Wars 2 news arrived and surfaced about I was super excited for it and found out I got to play as my favorite race, the Charr.
Guild Wars really helped me escape into a different world from some issues I had to deal with at one of my parents homes so it REALLY helped me out a lot and it genuinely was just a fantastic game. It was probably one of my favorite MMO's - competing with the time I spent on World of Warcraft. Even when I was younger I would play on my brothers account until I finally had got my own. I've been interested in Guild Wars since 2005. Sorry, I didn't really see a section related to this but I just wanted to express something that means a lot to me really. You may get a few drops, maybe even enough for an entire glass, but why not just let the cow relax for its final years of life? There is no need to keep milking a cow when its milk starts drying up. I would like to have a larger community for when I actually do play. I own the game, and still jump on from time to time.
You aren't losing anything, and you will have gotten more out of the game than F2P players. You got all of that extra time, prior to when I would go F2P, to play the game. Why should they make this free now? They uld make a little more money with that.Īnd this why does me and the many players who purchased it should be penalised by giving it for free? Is there a good reason to make this game free to play?I get that it's not very active, however, there is a great amount of solo content (well, it is based on solo content, literally) that it is still worth bying it.
