So far, ArenaNet has managed to make one big every update every month, just like said they would. I am very impressed by this. It will take a couple of years for a MMO to really find itself. Right now they are still things, conceptualizing the future, and like all MMOs it results in a two step forward, one step backward mentality.

One recent thing is that the game is much harder now in the end game fights. It's very cool but some casual gamers are a bit frustrated by this.


It's hands down, one of the most impressive online games I have ever played. The value you get is incredible.

ArenaNet? I wish I could research it here at work... could you describe the gameplay a bit more?

GW2 Review

Each profession/class has several weapons it can acquire, each with different attack skills earned by using a weapon. The five skills are keys 1-5, keys 6-10 utility skills are earned by spending skill points derived from challenges found in PvE. GW2 does not have addons, weapons and armor are limited as to level. A player can’t “pay to win” but some items can be bought with gems paid for with real money, including storage space, temporary boosts, and vanity items.

Target your foe, use you 1-5 keys to attack and augment the attack with keys 6-10, watch its health bar shorten, and loot. Good, if profane reviews of Guild Wars 2 can be found here:

Not me. I've not noticed anything unusual in your posts. Which post do you think it was? My guess is an auto warning is just that, auto generated with a flag. If you've not heard from a mod or seen your post disappear, I would not worry.

I'm hoping Elder Scrolls Online isn't a flop. Blizzard is working on Titan, but I don't know much about it.
