Carol Pizzamom posted:the combat feels like a downgrade from gw1 (other than the removal of 2.5d) and the story and artstyle don't grab me as much I'm gonna guess everything except the artstyle is just nostalgia. GW1 had a tab target combat system, both of them are pretty floaty movementwise so no change there, and GW1 had an okay story until you leave the shiverpeaks. It gets really weird really fast after that in GW1. GW2 isn't better at all, but they're both pretty bad. Art style, though, yeah. Babyface human women is still just really weird to me.

Are you all forgetting the play in Nightfall where Anet lampoons its own terrible GW1 story http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/All%27s_Well_That_Ends_Well

It gets really weird really fast after that in GW1. GW2 isn't better at all, but they're both pretty bad. I liked the multiclassing and team composition. I picked it up more recently to finish the story with the expansion packs and they more or less save thes tory and wrap stuff up although the premise is a bit cliche, it's done fairly well. There's something about just the environments and music in that game, though, they all look very unique and you can tell some very artistic people worked on the aesthetic. With the exception of one or two zones in GW2 I never got htat, it was just really dumb poo poo like lol ussr moles or whatever fantasy cliches. Things like the weird swamps and desert zones in GW1 had an aesthetic that looked like nothing else for some reason. I also have a lot of fond memories of being a runner, which is something that didn't quite exist the same after the first expansion, where people would pay you to run through the shiverpeaks across areas that didn't even have much of a reason to exist
