Hey,

I just started playing GW again today (stopped for almost 1 year). I quit playing WoW 2 weeks ago and I feel like playing a good MMORPG again. So I decided to install GW again and I'm in love with it again!
I have Prophecies and Factions but now I'm thinking about getting Nightfall too... But, WHY should I get it?
-I really like the PvE in Prophecies which Factions didn't have. Does Nightfall have good PvE too?
-Don't really care about the PvP in Nightfall.

If you enjoyed Prophecies, you'll LOVE Nightfall.

There's really no more to say; storyline and content wise, Nightfall is my favorite of the three games. It's just superb

If you really want to know more about it, I would probably go to look up Nightfall on gamerankings.com, and read the reviews from the different websties.

It's definitely a step up from Factions, at the least.

yeah Nightfall has excellent PVE and the heroes really go a long way.

nightfall pve isn't boring and drawn out like prophecies but its not TO the point like in factions.

You MAY be surprised about final boss but not likely.

I found that I still enjoyed/enjoy the Prophecies story more than the Nightfall story. For the overall story:

Pros:
-good voice acting, probably some of the best so far
-moving lips when talking in cutscenes!
-good cutscenes that got me drawn in the story
-some of the most innovative missions so far of the 3

Cons:
-story was predictable and rather boring
-prerequiste quests and unavailable missions

IMO NF was better told but a worse story than Prophecies. I also couldn't play any of the NF missions more than once without boredom, though I can still do the Prophecies missions and have fun. Just my personal opinion.

I'd say get it, even though its pretty much the same thing with a different wrapping. But thats not nessicarily a bad thing .

I tell you that NFs beginning island is really exciting and made me go crazy for it.

But as the game progressed it got worse and worse and at about 2/3 i seriously thought of stopping.

I finished the game only because i felt i had to, didnt enjoy it at all...

If I remember correctly, there are 2 maind evelopment teams for guild wars. Team A for example, created proph and nightfall, while team B created factions and EOTN.

If you liked proph and didn't like factions, then NF will be a blessing to you.

If you have several different classes (and elites), it makes Heros much better than quite a number of players.
