Happy Fourth Anniversary Guild Wars!

Congratulations to ArenaNet on the fourth anniversary of Guild Wars! Three cross-cultural campaigns after pioneer players first heeded Ascalon’s call for heroes, the game continues to draw in new players with six million units sold.

ArenaNet’s continued commitment to improving gameplay certainly helps keep people playing, even with the delays to Guild Wars 2. Sure, World of Warcraft has 11.5 million users paying $14.99 a month to wander the world and grind for hours as deformed characters — but people don’t play Guild Wars for that. They want a highly modular, aesthetically pleasing online RPG they can pick up and play anytime they feel like it — and for four years straight, Guild Wars has delivered beautifully.

    There’s no need for this:

    You enjoy your game we enjoy our game. No need to bust people’s chops. If you like your game so much do you need to bash another game?

    And if people always veered to aesthetically pleasing then Darth Vader would have no fans or Friday the 13th or Zombies.

    Don’t sing praises to Guildwars at the expense of throwing dirt on another game. That is the way of writers who can’t write.
