Anyone coming to GW from WoW - Guild Wars Forums

So I'm a frequent WoW player that has for awhile thought about trying something else and GW intrigues me as it seems like it is almost a Diablo III in many ways both from a design perspective and the fact that many of he people who made this game worked for Blizzard.

My question is did any of you come from WoW to GW, if so what do you think about GW.

I feel sad when I play this game. I came to WoW because I was bored of it and hoped this would fill the empty void. It didnt. WoW is a much better game and much more polished. I also think the videos and screen shots (most of them) made this game look better than it really was. Its a good game, but its nothing like WoW was in my prime of playing it. And me posting this proves it. I didnt post anything for like 2 weeks after i got WoW.

Now all i do is play GW and look at old pvp videos i made when I played WoW and cry myself to sleep.

I am.

I was known as Raymond on the skullcrusher server. I was a level 60 warrior with many alts, so I was able to experience most of the game before switching over. All I have to say is that I am liking Guild Wars much better than I ever liked WoW.

I played WoW even in Beta's now WoW has a much better PvE side of it. But im PvP'er i like to PvE every now and then but usely just to grind armor gold and weapson. GW is way more fun in the PvP area the fighting areas are great, and when grinding u dont get jumped by some one 10 lvls higher then. I love the lvling system, you only have to grind xp to lvl 20 thats great. The balance of this game is great, i know what class i can kill and what class i cant. Im a N/W, and set up as Vampire thats the best way to put my build. I love the fact that i can do that there is no real class, theres ways to make your own class. So by far this game is much better then World Of Lagcraft/gankfest. Have fun if you still play maybe they screw paying customers some more and make you pay to test battlegrounds and then tell you to give it time screw Blizzard

I would full heartedly recommend this game to everyone, even people new to gaming. So no question, I would recommend it to WoW players.

Since I bought this game, I haven't logged into WoW even once.

Been about half a dozen of these threads, and everyone degenerates.
