Ok, Im looking for something to occupy my time in night whenever I cant sleep or if I have nothing better to do(over summer). My friend told me about this game and I was kinda interested in it at first. I always thought Guild Wars kinda suck but I dont know for sure. Ive been playing WoW for about 6 months total and was wondering if Guild Wars has those aspects? Is so, Can someone tell me the downsides and good parts of this game.

Im quitting cuz 15 dollars may not seem much but I just dont feel like throwing money at an MMORPG. Lol I didnt quit cuz Blizzard is rich. I mean Im just gonna wait if they ever have a price drop on the fee.

How is it the devil?
Since when to nauseatingly cute monsters popping out of balls have to do with anything satanic?

Idk my dad is one of those stereotypical parents that get all fed up and blame video games for their tough times.

Lol yeah I get the same exact shit from my mom. She doesn’t ever back it up with any proof or anything she just says random things are “of the devil”

I had to buy Oblivion and hide it to keep my mom from finding out I own it because she thinks its Satanic.

My mom thinks video games were the reason for Colombine and the VA Tech shootings.

I mean how retarded is that, there wasnt even any graphically violent games when Colombine happened...

Well their was that Doom game the Colombine dudes played but it wasnt....that uber omg super duper violent. Ughhh now their flaming on Counterstrike. My dad sees my cousin’s Wii Sports game as heaven(WTF my dad doesnt notice I have the game as well!?)and thinks LoZ TP is nonsense. Anyways back to Guild Wars, Which one should I get? Factions? First one? Or Nightfall?

I looked them up and the best one is the first one. The second best is Factions, and the third best is Nightfall.

Ratings:

Factions- 8.5
Nightfall- 8.2
First One- 9.2

Hmmm might get Factions cuz they have an assasin class closely familiar to a rogue of WoW or I just might get the first one instead.
