[QUOTE="BrunoBRS"][QUOTE="Jankarcop"]Gonna be a good game, but won't compete with subscription MMO's. ToR doesn't have too much to fear in terms of sales/subs. It will compete with other online RPG's like Diablo III due to the price model.Jankarcop

do it like this: instead of paying $15 for each month a player has played of WoW since its launch, this player could have paid $60 for the game and subsequent $60 for each expansion (though i'm pretty sure GW1 originally costed $40-50, but let's go with 60 for now). which one is cheaper?

[QUOTE="Jankarcop"][QUOTE="BrunoBRS"] except it's offering what the monthly fee MMOs are, but without those fees. it's making people think "well i can pay $15 per month to play this one game... or i can pay $60 once and play this other game". they ARE competing with subscription MMOs, in the way that they are preying on it by offering the same experience with an infinitely cheaper price model.BrunoBRS

[QUOTE="Jankarcop"] I doubt it will be just $60 if you want new content on the level of sub games. I think they will have expansions every 6 months like GW1 or alot of microstransactions. Ibacai

I only have 9 points so far, so enough for the orange tabby cat.

But I got a lot of gold on me, so I can easily get a few extra points, and I have a few titles I have yet to deliver.

That might work if all the content for each game were of equal value and in the same quantity levels. But WoW is a much much larger game than GW. The F2P model often ends up lacking in customer service, content updates, bug fixes....Something has to pay for those. And no, I'm not bashing GW2. I'm actually excited to see what GW2 turns out to be especially with the persistent quests that are apparently procedural. Definitely hyped.Ibacai

I would argue that while it is true WoW has more content, Guild Wars has more relevant content. Why? Because while it is true WoW adds more content on a regular basis, all the major endgame content for Guild Wars they have added is still relevant as opposed to WoW where all the content they add gets obsolete with the next expansion pack and in the case of WotLK, the release of the next raid.

Guild Wars never raised the level cap, and as a result, what existed as endgame in GW at launch is still endgame material right now. One of the beauties of Guild Wars' design.

Meeeeh. Too instanced and theme-parky for me. Call me when they make it open PvP and open PvE.

Hmm, finally some more info on cross profession combos. A Link to the Arenanet blog.

Looks like the exact system I have wanted for almost 10 years now, nice that someone is finally implementing it. *sheds tear of joy*

It looks great but I don't want to buy it thinking it's a real MMO like WoW and end up experiencing that instanced bullsnitzel like the first game was, Warhammer was and Age of Conan was. I'm probably missing a bunch more too. I like a fully open and persistent world.

Seems kind of silly to be making this thread when this game won't even be out this year.

FFXIV 2.0 will be better!

WoW isnt fully open world, far from it. Heck, nowdays that open world you see is barely being used with everyone sitting in Orgrimmar or SW waiting for the next instanced dungeon. Heck, WoW is barely any less instanced than Guild Wars these days.

What QQabitmoar wants is ZERO instances and ZERO battlegrounds. All PvP will be world PvP, all PvE will be in the world and can be interrupted by other players. Much like Lineage was, and back when mmos were good. With actual guild competition and rivalry.

This will be the first MMO I will ever buy.

Yeah, that seems disappoitning so far, I am hoping we get more creative combinations later on. Still, it is better than nothing, where there is minimal interaction with party members. Something that has been an enormous issue with the mmo genre.

It seems taht someone with a Zelda sig didnt notice the Zelda reference in my post. I must be terrible at making refernces :cry:
