People were complaining like CRAZY! Where's my healer!!!? Where's the tank!!? We need a tank we can't take this boss down!!! Complete removal of the holy trinity system is the stupidest idea I have EVER seen. By the looks of it...the GW2 beta brought a lot of people back to reality. All over the place, I belong to LOTS of gaming forums and lots of people didn't like it. They say the things were cheesy, sub par, overall confusing and boring. There are going to be a lot of disappointed people out there when they pick up GW2. Again...it's one world. You can only go so far with one world. TOR has 17 worlds in a galaxy. There is UNLIMITED amount of room to how big this game can get.
SWTORs 17 planets are far smaller than Tyria (GW2 world) far, FAR smaller.

Show me a link to all these gaming forums that "dont like it" because I will like two forums for every one that has tons of threads talking about how great it is.
Those who beg for mercy are too weak to deserve it.

Then you are trolling. You cant tell me that this http://i.imgur.com/bXytk.jpg looks like the PS2 picture I posted, if so, the you need to state the same for SWTOR, cause the graphics of Guild Wars 2 and SWTOR are pretty close to each other, other then some art styles.
How do you measure the success of an MMO?

GW2 by a country mile. Been playing the last two days and it is utterly superb.
I was only waiting for that to see if it was worth keeping my sub on SWTOR. Decision made.

My first MMO was UO and it was the 1 I liked the most. Been waiting for something to fill that gap since 98. Someone specifically said GW2 was the answer...pumped. Care to elaborate on what makes GW2 so superb? Im looking for more information on gearing, open world, and combat.

Dialogue means zero to me in MMOs. If it were my choice I would force anyone in a group I start to autoskip all dialogue so I do not waste 15 minutes running BT. Yes, there is 15 minutes of dialogue and animations in BT.

So the quality of dialogue in GW2 is meaningless to me.

I am willing to try GW2 or any MMO. I've found that some of the best MMOs are the ones I wasn't even interested in. While the big hype ones were always a let down.
