It can get really frustrating. It seems to me though that GW2, at least what I played of it in the beta weekend, has solved that issue of having to deal with people who don't want to cooperate. That gets me excited to actually start playing online with others instead of trying to do the whole game solo. Although it's nice to be able to choose one or the other.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01900216633662961062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6261670119972823151.post-58765204756524317182012-05-04T09:25:39.052-07:002012-05-04T09:25:39.052-07:00The review makes me miss my old MMO days.

Very nice write up though. <br /><br />I do remember the frustration of having to try to team up with random idiots to accomplish things all too well, luckily I had a group of about 10 friends who played and could be counted on for a helping hand.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6261670119972823151.post-70625264737186033902012-05-04T08:45:51.055-07:002012-05-04T08:45:51.055-07:00Thanks, Cavernshark.

Now I just need to spend some more time in GW1 amassing more rewards in the Hall of Monuments before GW2 is officially released.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01900216633662961062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6261670119972823151.post-37130410654701445612012-05-04T07:59:48.547-07:002012-05-04T07:59:48.547-07:00Good write-up, especially with all the screenshots...Good write-up, especially with all the screenshots showing the various interfaces. <br /><br />I think it's awesome for you that this was your first MMO. I've been playing them for years and the ArenaNet team really has gone out of there way to re-imagine almost every annoying mechanic of the genre.Cavernsharkhttp://questproquo.comnoreply@blogger.com
