I played the game for 6 years, then stopped playing for 2 whole years. As I return to the game, I couldn't agree more with each and every point that you mentioned!
Awesome! Welcome back!
Started playing the game in beta for about 6 months...was not so great back then. Started playing again since December last year and have been playing non-stop since then. It's so much better now
Similar story as yours, played in beta, then came back a few years ago - Great game now!
Awesome video! Please keep them coming!
All I needed was was the first 5 seconds, ty and see ya in game XDXD All true, but a heads up for new players if there's any: the base game story 1~80 and the Living World season 2 are the most low paced story content the game has to offer, but if you are into lore there's much to get from there too!
Very true, the story gets really good in the expansions and lws3+4!
I returned to guild wars about a month ago and these are the exact reasons I've loved coming back. Great video👌
Awesome!
Genuinely very good video. Keep it up guys!
Thanks!
This video's editing, presentation, contents are great.
Thanks, I appreciate it! ❤️
I played the game for 5 years from release (also GW1). But stopped after that totally, but couple weeks ago I returned!
Nice! Enjoy, new content is coming out this month also!
Super nice video. merci
Your welcome!
love your video! a little advice is too add timestamps for easier navigation
Thanks!
This game sounds too good to be true. I've never played a mmo before but im gonna be trying gw2! Awesome video 👏
Awesome! Welcome in! I have a beginner's guide if it helps =) czcams.com/video/xAP6Dwp6AtI/video.html
@@Jrocks26 it helped and I am +lv 60 now :D is there a difference between accessing the game through steam and the official website? im about to purchase the expansions
@@bashdota1553 either works fine, I use the website myself
I started playing GW2 in vanilla, and stopped playing before getting into PoF content. Coming back after having not played since 2017 has been an absolute blast! I love how ANet has managed to cater to players of all types, as you can play the game as a casual exploration game, you can play as a hard core raider, or even a pvper, and *everyone gets rewarded for it*. I never feel like I'm wasting my time or that I'm being punished for playing the game how I want to, which is huge!!
Yeah, very great game!
going to play game again, left for maybe a good 7 years. man do i have plenty of things to catch up on
Yeah, a lot of new content since then for sure. Enjoy!
Just came back to the game today after four years man I missed this game
Welcome back!
You sold me! Installing it right now. Do I need to purchase the expansions now? Or do I just play the base game first?
You don't need to purchase anything until after lvl 80, after you finish the base game and core story. Enjoy!
Welcome to Tyria :)
YES
I come from wow 2005/2010, classic & hard core. I would like to try GW2. I have a question, is it possible to leveling and get gear through pvp ? I can enjoy pve aspect of the game after of course. Thank for answering.
Gear yes, you can get a full set of Legendary armor as well as ascended equipment. I have a guide on both actually. You have to level up for WvW. For pvp it sets you to level 80 automatically
The 5v5 Pvp mode is actually my main source of gold and gear. So definitely!
As this was not really answered yet.... yes, it is definetly possible to "level" via PvP because you get a lot of level-up-tomes from it.
I recommend you playing the first 20 levels at least though as this takes you only like two hours and you will get familiar with the most basic stuff so you are not that lost with what everything is.
Yes you can. Personal advise is to try to level through the first few levels (about 20-30) alone, because the higher you go the higher the XP requirements meaning that all instant level ups you use on higher levels are more valuable than lower levels. The game is gonna teach you some basic things through that as well. BUT, while leveling you will engage with the open world- arguably best PvE done in any MMORPG. So you might end up liking it.
What class/subclass is that blue warrior looking guy at the beginning of the video? Looks like it has a decent mobility and looks fun. I'm thinking of giving this game another chance and i'd like to choose a class but i'm having trouble on deciding which one to play (or, more precisely, I lack information)
That is my Guardian/Willbender, a lot of fun, definitely recommend
Thanks for answering 👍@@Jrocks26
great intro XD
🤣Thanks!
i want to try GW2 but im worried about taking the jump. im stuck between starting GW2 or WOW as both are big games
Both are great games! One cool thing with Guild Wars is its free to play, no subscription fee. So you can play to max level for free. It is also a horizontal progression game so all your progression is the same when you come back, you dont fall behind like other games if you decide to take a break. We are currently taking a break and playing FF14, but anytime we jump back in we are geared and ready to go!
Did they fix dungeons? I haven't played since the middle of Heart of Thorns and it felt like every dungeon boss tactic was 'Pull boss around a corner and stack and spam heals and AOEs'.
Dungeons aren't run as much as they used to be, they made a whole new system called Fractals which are fun quick dungeonsthat are really popular and very profitable
Playing Fear not this night at the start is just illegal. How am I supposed to not cry? 😅😢
🤣
i'm planning to play, can anyone guide me so i dont get lost?
Heyas! I have a great beginner's guide that might be useful to you: czcams.com/video/xAP6Dwp6AtI/video.html
Is GW2 only available on PC?
Yes
Great now i want this next expansion too. I can never seem to rid myself of Crack Wars 2 after over a decade of playing it on and off.
Is there a possibility for GW2 to be playable on mobile? Android , IOS?
Not that I am aware of
You could set it up on steam deck for sure I've played, all big mmos on there, wow, ff14, new world. You just need wifi I use my trucks wifi if im out and about. Gl some of the games like wow was really hard to get going but gw2 is on steam so should work pretty easily
The thing of being fully voice acted surprises me even all this time after. First, because is a game from a medium budget company and basically they have the best voice actors in the market and second, because supposedly isn't an story oriented MMO, but look FF14, they don't have that (actually it's a super mediocre MMO)
Really nice video! Gw2 is really awesome! But you can't trade gold for gems with a free account. You need at least one expansion to do that.
Thanks =)
MMOs do not offer anything new at the moment, it is better to wait for the next generation of this genre
welp. I downloaded it again.
Nice lol, the new expansion trailer looks really good!
agreed
Play guild wars 1 insted....
Im new to the game. Welcome me guys 😅
Welcome!
Arkadaşlar merhaba, Guild Wars 2 oynayan türklerin buluştuğu bir lonca kurduk. Oynamak isteyen ya da oynayan arkadaşları aramızda görmeyi çok isteriz. Tanışmak isteyen, oyun hakkında soruları olan arkadaşlar mesaj atabilirler. Saygılar, sevgiler.. -Lions Not Lie
Bro reviewing guildwars but got on a worldofwarcraft costume 🤣
Your commentary on the holy trinity is incorrect, Guild Wars 2 DOES have a holy trinity, even though originally they tried to design it differently, once raids released that changed and they went back on it, while it's true almost all classes have access to different roles through spec and skill choice. A trinity does exist, healers, dps and tanks are a thing in the endgame instanced pve (raids,strikes,fractals etc.) and with the heavy reliance on boons for ALL classes to perform their rotations (it is the standard to benchmark with a boon setup provided by established support builds), your point here is very inaccurate.
Regardless, I would recommend the game. You'll get a lot of mileage to money spent (assuming you are buying the expansions). It is great value.
Nope, not worth it this 2024, outdated. Anet just want your money. If you will report a players whos being disrespectful or harass you, they don't do shit. But if its about something that hurts their income like sending gold to friends or other players then they banned you with no further explanation. Take my advice guys look for other games or regret.
Sounds like you did things you shouldn't have been doing and are salty
LOL "pvp pillar"...Yaaa ok, hasn't been touched in over 5 years, NON-STOP lies from Anet "ohhh yea were working on it!!" Pvp 5v5 UNTOUCHED, and ran by BOTS 24/7...trash trash game.
I don't agree that " your character will always be viable "
Everything gets locked behind expansions, same with gw1, so if you don't pay 2 win then you will be behind.
For those that don't get it, you will be skill/ability blocked instead of gear blocked.
Its not bad tho.
You have no clue what does pay to win means; the game is buy to play the endgame
@@giovada4157 No? Try wvw and Come back to me :)
eh? played like 1 year just with core mesmer all kind of content without problems, then I wanted to get the expansions and got all at once with discount :D, but on that first year I never felt like I was locked lol, even on wvw as a core mesmer I was able to kill a lot of ppl
Nice, core mesmer is on of my favorite core to play :) Ofc you "can" kill but you are behind on everything, you don't even have access to all stats on gear. Even a mount is plenty of more extra health, you also don't have the same mobility. In a zerg you wont be able to keep up dps, thus gimping your team if you are in a full squad etc etc. Expansion classes just do all the same AND more. Can the game be fun as core? ofc but you are not competitive in a group, if the other players are, they probably don't want you around.
@@LuisAlbertoSandovalArevalo
I always told the fanboys that GW2 is still paytowin. Any type of advantage is considered a win. Though, its p2w is not as predatory as other mmorpg.
Short answer :NO
Long answer :Your free time shouldn't be this much worthless for waste in this game.Arena-net right now at route of skimplation.Since release there are so many contents abandoned and left to rot game looks like a failed abomination.Dungeons,raids,PVP all forgotten.WvW? Yeah Alliances coming soon TM.Story become a joke with Dragon cycle.Strikes nothing but copy paste of story missions.And this horizontal progression made to game aged like milk.Because after Ascended all your other item becomes a skin.And u just burying your chair like a zombie you chasing to herd and collecting materials for complete your collection or sellin for purchase new Plushie skin.
There is a cult mentality in this game keep praising every decision of Arenanet and this allows them to do what ever they want.Because there is not much an alternative of this game.So cultist of this game doesnt wanna critize bc they think this will damage their game.But you are the one damagin this game with your toxic positivity.So no this game not worth to play fmo there are so many better games and activities to spend your time than this Purgatory.
