Will Nightfall dissapoint?
foody
i have a bad feeling i will be dissapointed with nightfall like i was with factions. it was hyped so much and it just dissapointed me with the stupid luxon kurzick crap. allince battles n aspenwoods and jade quarry was fun but the rp was just boring. the quests were kinda hard in the beggining for just starting like mayhem in the market.... get booted off island around 12-14 n then have to go right for lvl 20 monsters.... i just didint like it and i hope it dosent happen agian. the rt n assasin were ok but i do not like the dervish or paragon at all. please give me some thoughts and concerns if anyone has any.

Custom Heroes sounds more interesting that Faction vs. Faction, admittingly.
I have a feeling that ArenaNet will learn from their mistake.

no it will not be a disappointment. Actually it might be to some people if they dont get what they are looking, you cant make everyone happy but I think they have learned from their mistakes and are going to give us a much better game and im excited to play it. The game WILL ave flaws and it wont be perfect and thats what updates are for.

It honestly depends how badly they nerf dervish IMO.

You can wait 1 month after release, we will let you know.

Seeing that most people have extremely high expectations from Nightfall, it will probably dissapoint. However, it will still be a good game, and very likable by all players. Just not up to their expectations.
That's just my guess.

In addition, I really do think Factions was a trial run. I have much faith in Nightfall.

You can't have high expectations of sequels from the original impression. It kills when the expectations aren't met.
About Factions...it was okay except for the CITY's quests which were incredibly fed-ex.
I have higher expectations for the Paragon than Dervish...more combo-ability with other classes.
Things I'm thinking about:
A/P, W/P, P/W, R/P

I think Nightfall will be a success. I really wanna try out some new builds. Guess we'll see what happens in a few months.

Well i like Factions, i found it really good, then again, i look at everything, yes the story line was not great, but the modeling the was it was put togeather and everything else i really liked. So for me i like it. As for Nightfall, i like both the new classes and i most likey will like the game becuase it just the way i am. Give about a month after it comes out and i will have a better idea of what people should thing about nightfall.

Factions might have been a type of trial run, but they will get better at this. I think every 6 months, a new PvE version of gw, and every other 6 months pvp. Eventually they will get better at bringing in stuff that people really want.
When Factions was to be released, I remember like 4 days beforehand them announcing all this new stuff, including Titles as one of the main things, 4 DAYS BEFOREHAND. So our best bet, is that the BEST STUFF IS YET TO BE ANNOUNCED. Which of course keeps us hopefull.......

I've been to the future twice now, and I can say with absolute certainty that Nightfall will not disappoint.
It's the 5th Chapter we must worry about.

If you just expect a good game that continues the series, you more than likely will not be dissapointed. If you get enraptured by all the hype, especially the hype that exists on forums, you will most likely be dissapointed.

Factions is cool, wats wrong with it? Having a blast in it. Just don't like the expert and master system in the missions.
mega_jamie
An inteligent Dev team will have looked at our complaints/suggestions and approvals from factions and tried to get these into Nightfall. Hopefully Anet have themselves an inteliget Dev team.
But I doubt that Nightfall will bomb, the number of people called Xxx Reaper Xxx or ||| Death ||| will increase of course :-S

i for one am happy with both of the chapters, more prophecies than factions i would have to say. factions was fun for 1 character, but after that, i got bored with the missions and what not. i didnt mind all the chinese stuff, and as far as nightfall goes, just cause of where it is based (elona, kind of a part of prophecies) i think it will be PvE based.... as i think Factions was PvP based. so it will give soething to those players who like PvE again. the one thing about factions i didnt liek however, was that EVERY boss had a gren to his name.... i like alot of the greens (stonreaper, sskai's sword, ghials staff...) but i think that was just overboard. the point of greens (i thought) was supposed to be more rare than a gold. i see greens going for a few hundred gp, and the golds at 100k+ sometimes.... i wish the green were worth more again ^^;;
all in all i think nightfall will not dissapoint.
oh btw
/jump <-- ZOMGZOR i can jump!!!

hen you put that hype in the hands of forum readers and it quickly spins out of controll, and expectations go through the roof. (i.e. OMG, it is called NightFALL, as in we will be able to fall, so we must be able to jump, NIGHTFALL WILL INCLUDE JUMPING) |

Besides, whats so chinese about the Kurzicks and Luxons anyway?
On topic, Nightfall will only disappoint if you want it to. If you are gonna sit here for a few weeks telling yourself its gonna disappoint over and over, then yes, it will disappoint.
Works the other way too, screaming its gonna be the best GW ever may leave you a bit dissapointed if not everything you thought there would be is in the game.
Will it dissapoint? Maybe.
Will it be a bad game? Of course not.
Empex
I take it you don't remember how much whining about the game there was after the release of prophecies? Now suddently everyone loves prophecies and hates factions. People on internet forums whine, that's what they do.
Sagaris
Nuhuh.. not for me. Anything that carries the name Guild Wars doesn't disappoint me.
-Loki-
There will undoubtedly be people unhappy with it, threatening to leave the game if something specific isn't done, because epople enjoy pissing and moaning. Visit any game forum.
bigwig
some people have all ready made up their minds.
Lil' Bill
The thing that's worrying me most is how will choose what class I want to be? I really want a dervish but with 9 class's to choose from for a secondary its going to get real confusing. I feel sorry for any people who join into nightfall its going to be very confusing and if they dont buy the other games they wont have space to try different class's out and 4 spaces can only go so far...
kimahri
I try to keep my expectations low, and simply wait and see how it is. I try not to hype it up too much but it's hard when you see the log-in screen .

In fact before Factions, people were complaining that Prophecies wasn't like WoW and didn't have enough PvP.
Then when Factions came out people complained it wasn't like Prophecies and had too much PvP.
For me I will buy Nightfall and love it, just like I did with Prohecies and Factions.
Thallandor
I will be watching the forums closely for you guys to tell me if it sucks
unless of course the mods just decide to close every negative threads and ban any who say otherwise, then you know for sure to stay away from the game and the community

Its Prophecies team, A guildwars that we never seen before.
Its impossible to not like it.. lol

there is also hope for the chapter 4 team as well as Anet has been and will continue to gather data on players preferences.
this means how they actually play not how they forum bitch about something.
you can bet that chapter 4 is prepared to jump either way (more PVE/PVP) depending on how people play Nightfall.
if Nightfall is a bigger success than Factions as determined by their play logs they have the lead time to add a bunch of the chapter 3 stuff that people have shown they like by the play logs to chapter 4.
as i said a year ago the first few chapters will be finding out what the sweet spot balance is between PVE/PVP and then it will settle down

it does not matter when you do an amazing game like gw1 you need to match it or make it better and to everyone who says a sequel is never better then the original it is a bull s*** lie. Terminator 2 was better then 1 diablo 2 was better then diablo 1 finial fantasy 7 was better then 1-6 and 8-?. sorry for spelling it is to early.

Well there's no way of knowing but some things: it's being made by the team who made the original Prophecies (good thing) and also they've said several times over now it's more for the PvE crowd, while Factions was more PvP focussed (so that's good for the PvE folks)
One thing though I'm pretty sure of, it will be smaller than Prophecies due to not having years of work on it, but hopefully still bigger than Factions.
Either way, I get the feeling a fair number of people will decide to buy/not buy future chapters based on how good this one turns out to be.

As long as its pve isn't set up like factions and its pvp to be more versatile w/ the 2 new classes not adding whole new dimensions of balance problems, then it'll be fine. I know the consequent chapters will never be as big as prophecies but it should be set up like it was in prophecies, made the game alot more playable for repeaters.

No.
Also, I hate factions, but never understood why people complained about Prophecies. I'm in love with Nightfall.

There is a difference between blind complaints and actual issues and suggestions.

Will Nightfall dissapoint only if you set unrealistic expectations... NOBODY will get everything they want thats just how things go..
But for me I'm excited.. The hero vs hero thing sounds fun as hell... The rumored customizable henchies sounds awesome as well... The saved skillsets for your characters I have been wanting since early on in Prophecies. ( GO ANET!!) The new characters look like fun as well.
I too pray for a improved way to sell and trade things... I HATE spamming to sell my finds to the public it just simply takes to much time away from killing stuff. Yet even if I don't get an auction house or something of the sort who cares? What we have works if the community uses it in an intelligent way, and I can turn it off when it gets too annoying.( trade chat is not idiot proof thats its main problem)
I'm a fanboy I wont even try to deny it. This game and how it evolves from balance change to balance change (I hate the term nerf) keeps the game intresting and fresh even for someone like me with just over 5200 hrs of playtime across two accounts. So another chapter, more bad guys to kill, more places to explore, new skills, new characters, new wepon skins....... How could I possibly be dissapointed?
