Guild Wars 2 Beta Weekend. SWTOR or GW2, what do you prefer?

Why pay $15 dollars a month when you can play chances are the best MMO made for free? That's what most people are going to do. More so then that the Dev's over there are working with the players on making the world bigger and better. And it's not like Skyrim it's an MMO not a single player game that well could have been so much better.

I'm going as far to say that from the beta alone GW2 is going to be the game everyone plays.

Really, the only things I preferred in GW2 are the market interface and the dynamism of the worlds (especially the cities). Everything else wasn't really as revolutionary as the fanboys and ArenaNet would like us all to believe.

I was especially disappointed with the so called 'dynamic events'. They made a huge deal about how GW2 wouldn't be linear and would feature a persistent world where your actions would have an impact, but I saw none of that. I saw the same events happening on a near clockwork schedule, and what was worse- they didn't scale to the number of players present. 5 or 50, it was the same number of enemies, the same objectives; pretty weak delivery on that promise.

The writing was abysmal- though I suppose I"ve been spoiled and am unable to view it objectively.

The combat was enjoyable, but unpolished.

I had fun, I guess, but after a few hours I came back to swtor. There's your answer.

The game is better than SWTOR in almost every way.

Guild Wars 2 will not "kill" anything and is probably my biggest disappointment in any game I have played in a long time. I found it to be outright terrible. With it's extremely cludgy and frustrating combat mechanics, overly difficult "solo" missions, and very poor client performance I think a lot of other players who were looking forward to the game will be very disappointed.

I loved GW1 and still play it on occasion but this version is so far removed from the first it's like the took out everything that made GW great to begin with.

I can say one thing, after playing GW2 I have a new found appreciation for SWTOR.
