In case any of you were curious and not yet aware: https://beta.guildwars2.com/

Edit:
I just realized this was my 1k post. Was I supposed to do something cool with it, or is that only when you hit 10k?

I wanted to care, but I think when I got into GW with what 3 expansion packs and I realized that it was just glorified version of Diablo... which is odd because I've been enjoying my solo romps into pay to play worlds lately. Something is seriously wrong with me.

I think I'll end up buying GW2 like I did 1 just to support the idea, and I would play from time to time (maybe more I really dunno how different it is). I just like the payment model. Give me good **** or I won't give you cash.

GW2 is being pitched as being distinct from its predecessor. For starters it's a proper persistent world rather than just being able to see other folks in hub towns. They're also attempting a fundamentally different approach to the MMORPG genre. Or at least that's what their PR machine has been doing a really good job of convincing me of for a good while now. Press beta was last weekend so there should be plenty of info floating around the web now.

I'm pretty excited about this game. I think it represents a nice shake-up of design philosophy in the industry and that's a positive thing regardless of whether or not the game tanks.

What I got from the press releases is that it will be kinda like the persistant world mods to Neverwinter Nights (1 & 2 and/or the Ultima Online mods all of which are pretty much free to play) other than a story with a budget behind it...

As I said, I really like the monetary model of the game(s) and I'll support that whether I like the game or not.
