      Does anyone now when the Open Beta might be launching? I was in both the Alpha and the closed beta, and I was originally supposed to test the game with 2 friends during the closed beta, but one of them had his house burn down literally the day before the servers went live, and the other one fried his heatsink so neither of them were able to participate, and they're really anxious to try it out ever since they've seen the gameplay O.o

      I've started GuildWars just because I didn't know what to do with the paysafecard vouchers I got for my birthday but I tell you what... It's an amazing game, much better than I've expected! I really loved the graphics, the characters, the story, the quests - everything. My friends and I quit playing Diablo 3 because of the GuldWars. And lots of people I know did the same.

      i played the first one and it's the only MMO i've played to date. the graphics were nice, but i couldn't care less about interacting with people, and most of the time i found having other people around doing dance moves and talking in internet-speak just distracting. and playing an MMO while hating all the other players and wanting to do everything alone gets incredibly boring incredibly quickly, so i was done within 5 hours. this sequel looks good but maybe one day NCSoft will make a single player RPG for the rest of us, since they won't be busy gouging money from people every month, WoW style

      This game is a 10/10 and here's why. Aside from the new combat (if you think it's simple your not really using it to it's full potential, and you'll die in a dungeon, horribly, over and over again). There is a learning curve for those of us who are used to "stand in a corner and heal or dps" or "stand still" and spank. This isn't WoW. And it takes an adjustment (I'm still learning how use this more complex but less button system to it's fullest). Aside from the making grind quests, i.e. go collect 50 pig snouts and 80 worm anuses, into collect 50 pig snouts, OR 800 worm anuses, OR put out these fires. So no more kill boars in the forest to reach level 60 ala South Park. Aside from getting xp for everything you do. Aside from crafting actually being fun. Aside from a personal story for your characters. Aside from the dynamic events turning into a chain that takes you across the countryside only to have the quest turn into a merchant who sells you those lovely worm anuses as a necklace that boosts your stats... Aside from all the little things, the little details, the dyes to changer your armor, the beautiful artwork, the xp and rewards for just exploring, the lack of asshattery that happens when you have that boss KS'd out from you, or have resources stolen out from under you... Aside from all that, and much more...it's a 10 because it is packed full of content that has nothing to do with your story, or the game's story or the quests. I was in Lion's Arch and I overheard two skritt talking. One about a hidden hideout. The other skritt told him to stay with her as they probably figured out he knew and closed the opening he found. He started to walk away, and I followed him and found the hideout for the Whispers group. All from listening to a random conversatin with an NPC and following where they lead. I found a chest from a jumping quest, which lead me to another small jumping puzzle to a dungeon of the Nightmare Court which held another chest. There is a Quaggan swimming in a town humming a toon, in that room is an organ shaped like a coral plant. Play the tune she's humming and a shell opens up and there's a chest. Anet thinks alot of us as players. They think we'll explore, be curious, and pay attention. That's love, and some mad respect, right there. Worried about content cuz you're not forking over $15 bones a month? Bullocks! This game is so full of content, I'll be dining on it long after the next expansion comes out. An expansion that I will happily, gleefully, cheerfully fork over some more money for. I paid $15 a month to play WoW for years. I enjoyed it. Until I was forking over $15 for months with no updates, until six months later.By then I had paid $90 to get a raid? Yeah, I am never paying a monthly subscription again. That's my money, do what you like with yours. As for me, with what Anet has given me aleady? WOW! And bored, yeah, no.

      First thing I did when early access went live was make sure I could dance. Because I couldn't during the last beta. And I danced. And there was much rejoicing. Then I went and killed a bunch of ghosts.

      garnsr How come even non-human females always have boobs, too? If they aren't even mammals, especially, why would they?

      Kalrekos Understandable. It was called the Forge, in order to distinguish it from STO's Foundry, until some time last year.

      I actually got 3 Beta keys for participating in the Alpha. I'm really looking forward to the 8th of August to see how they've improved it (Plus, I get to laugh at my buddies as they get smacked around by everything XD)

      Ahh--Good Ol' SoE--Fool me once shame on me. Fool me twice--you got me again. Yeah--and you have fooled me a third time too--but guess what--never again. PlanetSide 2 could be released with the best reviews ever written but one thing I am confident about--SoE will massively botch the game after taking everyone's money. Personally, I'll never give SoE another dime on my cash.

      Actually I find GW2 to be the most anti social mmo out there. Yes, you play with people all the time, but you don't interact with them in any way. You just play, join quests, you do some part, they do some part, etc. And I absolutely LOVE it. At least there won't be much if any elitists out there.

      Sinsational Isn't "social MMO" kind of redundant?
