Guild Wars: Not too sure about this game

I like the idea behind Guild Wars sort of like a WoW or EQ2, but without the monthly fee, which is how it should be. But the gameplay is pretty weak compared to WoW, the only MMORPG I have ever played so far.

Yes the graphics for GuildWars blow WorldOfWarcraft out of the water, and it has no subscription. Those really are the two thing's going for it.

There are a few things I wish GW could do that WoW does. First off your information on the screen, in WoW you can see your characters level, health/mana on the top left, and in upper right have the cool map that show your group too And then the bottom of screen shows your XP and all skills/spells. I did not see the options in GW to allow me to show all that info on the screen same way WoW does ?

And then the load screens between areas = ouch. Nothing runes a game more than stopping/wait for it to load another scene, in WoW almost the whole game is continous between towns/lands ?

And lastly but it is small, the movement/control of your character, I love WoW's control's. It feels GW has it set opposite which is ok, but let me change it, there are no options to change 100% of the control like WoW ? and how do you jump in GW, pressing space does not do it ?

Oh well, GW seems like a fresh idea, but needs more work

opinions ?

Alot of the things I am talking about do not rquire alot of resources to need a monthly fee, just more options on controls, and information displayed on screen.

I thnk that GW could be just as cool as WoW, as long as I could set it up do move exactly like WoW, and display more info ?

Well the guys that made Guild Wars are Ex Blizzard Employees, but I don't think they got the finacial backing Blizzard does though. I haven't really looked into Guild Wars at all, so I can't compare (I have played WoW though).

forget this, we need to march in protest that they haven't made diablo 3 yet.

we probably wont see diablo 3 this decade considering how long it takes blizzard to dev games, heh.

Have you not seen the preview of DungeonSiege II ? That game should be called Diablo3, it looks awesome, I mean more like a Diablo game with wicked graphics, and less like DungeonSeige 1.

I am surprised that Blizzard doesnt sue Chris Taylor for how much DS2 looks like a Diablo theme, down to the spells, and wrtitng, and charcter creation, etc..

Watch the E3 demo with Chris speaking about the game, he gives a tutoral, and it does look awesome, but I will call the game DiabloSiege
