Don't get to dissapointed as you never know there could be more add ons.It would be nice if they unerfed a lot of areas to make the game a whole lot of fun to play.Bring back May 2005.
I guess after this we could look at modding.
So very dissapointed

You sure you've done everything? I'm a PvPvEr and I never have a shortage of things to do. I mean so far I'm done SF beaten the 3 campaigns on multiple characters, gone after many greens but I still have a lot to do (DoA, clear UW, FOW, ELite missions etc). Not to mention all the stuff to do in PvP.
If your bored of this game why not take a break? My buddies go to Counterstrike and Warcraft 3 if we can't think of something to kill in Guild Wars. It's not like the game punishs you if you come back.
Guild Wars has a lot of content for a game with no subscription fee.

EASY to say and this is the facts....GWs is DEAD....new EXPANSION....who really cares...the game is over afterwards!!!!!
ANet is banking that you'll buy GW2 and that it won't end like this did....but in 2-3 yrs it will be GW3 if they are still around!!!
Hey where is Gaile BTW.......use to be a weekly or so sighting....now lucky if it's once a month....

I dont get people saying GW will b dead after GWEN or GW2 is gonna fail or not... HOW do u know? have you done research between the GW community? Have you made research between THE ENTIRE game community? I think not... Lets stop the *forecasting* and w8 till GWEN and GW2 come out.
Oh and O blue O:
1 Try PvP part of Guildwars
2 You told us all about your uber1337 titles (i realla think they r Uber1337 :P) and keep complaining about all the hard work for nothing...
Theres this new feature in GWEN called Halls Of Monuments...
I REALLY dont thing Anet will only give u some stupid Hat or things like that... I think the title on your GW1 character will still b seen on your GW2 character... And what are the benefits other than that in GW1?
Anyway... I respect you and your game experiences take a break and chill on other RPG's

I agree with the OP. I just came back from my second "break" from GW, this one being 4 months long. I'm ready to wander off again as I am already fully bored and cant summon the urge to login right now. Guess I am in another indefinite break period. New content is too few and far between and too many things have been nerfed over time. Its been fun etc and it remains a great game concept - it simply has its limits once you've played through a number of times. Combining that with loot scaling, anti farming measures, economic woes and PvE falters.
There's just little purpose now beyond title grind and HoM is not enough incentive for me, since that's just changing the look of the monument in an instanced area. No longer at all worth my time in game. The real answer of the worth of titles I dont expect until we are much closer to GW2 when we know what those rewards will actually be, and I cannot fathom sticking around after I explore GWEN all that long so that I find out, which is even beginning to make me wonder if I'll bother getting GWEN. Who knows.
Its been a great game. It remains a great game. It simply has its limits.

Don't take this the wrong way, but it IS possible to care TOO MUCH about a game. 
GWEN will have more titles and armor for you to grind. Otherwise, see you in GW2.

I think GW:EN is going to be really great. I am really looking forward to seeing the new races and exploring all those dungeons. The storyline to GW:EN is going to be intersting and it will lead us right into Guild Wars 2.
At times i do get a little bored because yeah GW1 does have its limits but still it is one of the best games out there. For an online rpg Guild Wars is alot better than any MMO out in the market in terms of graphics and game play.
Guild Wars is my game of choice and I am so looking forward to Guild Wars 2 MMO.

Extending level cap beyond 20 in GWEN would be a piece of cake. Insanely easy. Restrict PvP to level 20, i.e. those who have higher level are level 20 when PvP. Restrict old content to level 20, see above.
Done.
Done.

Of course, they made no promises about Guild Wars 2...
vaxmor
yeah >20 lvl cap = really easy, lvl 30 mending ftw!
hint: incase you havent realised if they increased the lvl cap w/ additional attribs - what do you think that would do to the entire skill system?

Go ahead and insert my standard "leaving doesn't make any sense" spiel.
Bryant Again
^ Agreed. You can't "leave" Guild Wars. It's not P2P. When someone leaves in WoW, it means they've cancelled their account. When someone "leaves" in Guild Wars, they just, like, stop playing, I guess.
Mordakai
People leave for a time, come back, leave again...
That's the beauty of GW. That's why it works for casual players. Hopefully, I won't feel totally lost if I leave GW2 for a bit and come back... but I trust Anet.

well even though i havent played gw too much(only 24 months X_X) im atm feeling a little bit bored with the game, now im constantly frustrated because i find nothing to do with it, im not much into PVP, and i dont feel like getting all those titles(tha heck with hall of monuments :P).
ive played many MMORPG(9 dragons, guild war, flyff, space cowboy etc...)
and in every game you need to grind, stayng hours in the computer...
sry to go offtopic, but i think GE is way better than all those games(granado espada-no it isnt mexican if someone asks -.-'') lol you can even afk grind, and the pvp is really great as well as the graphic and you control 3 characters at same time, wich makes it better.
that why until GW:EN comes out imma go play granado espada until it comes out xD

Why does anyone expect a game to provide "something to do" for a hardcore player for the entire time it takes for them to make a sequel?
Last time I checked, the going rate for most games is about 40 hours for $50. RPGs are, for reasons I will probably never understand, expected to add enough pointless filler and grind to expand this to 80-100. Fine. Now we go online and everyone expects it to go straight into the 1000+ range for no extra cash? Why? And before people point to tradition MMOs, I'm talking about content. Forcing us to repeat a tiny piece of content a few hundred times before moving to the next isn't adding more content. It's just extending the time for those who demand "something to do". People willing to pay for "something to do" every month or so get what they ask for. I just wanted a game worth the money I paid, and that's exactly what I got with each of the three GW chapters thus far. And if I stop playing entirely before GW2 comes out, I'll still remember the good times and most likely pick it up off the shelf when I do see it. How does that hurt anyone? |
If Guild Wars is a game that you want to play every day, that's great. If Guild Wars is a game that you burn through quickly, maybe pick up again every now and again, that's fine, too. You're buying a game (not renting it, with monthly fees) that allows you to choose what you do. You don't need to feel "Ack, I better log in so that I get my subscription fee's worth." (I've been there, done that. No log-in should feel like an obligation!) If you want to play PvP, you can. If you want to play PvE, you can do that, too. I think Guild Wars is about choices, and about each player having a lot of options.

ANet tried to market GW as a CORPG, trying to break the mold, but in all honesty? It failed... and GW has wrongly been lumped in with all the other MMO trash on the market aswell as the good MMO's (you can all decide for yourself which is which) instead of taking pride of place next to great games like Diablo 2... Personally, i think this has hindered the growth of GW and yes 4 million players or so is great, but if idiot P2P games aswell as good ones can get upwards of 14million (Lineage 2) and 8 or 9 million (WoW), then GW should be up there by miles...

I am taking a break from GW atm, I havn't really played for several days.

I agree with the sentiment that once you have run through the story then the only objective in the game to expand characters is to chase titles.
That for me, however, is enough to keep me interested, as a completist by nature chasing titles is fun, though some of themare somewhat labourous.
I havent got bored yet, and though I don't play constantly I tend to be on at least a few hours each day. Primarily I would say I'm PvE, though recently I've being doing some PvP. So I'm still entertained.
I accept that there is not enough content to keep people here constantly, eventually everyone will get burnout, but I'm sure that they will venture back at some point, like with any good game, people drift in and out.
I played Baldur's Gate over several years, gettign the upgrades, and would continue to play if I hadnt lost all my files. GW is the same to me, with no monthly fee I see no reason why I wouldn't continue to play this indefinetly.

To the Op:
You are a no-life.
I would just remind you that GW is a game, and as such, not a replacement of achievements you missed in real life.
The only thing a game is made for is to provide fun during a certain amount of time.
Work? Time? You, and only you, chose to devote that much time to this game. You finished it? Then switch to another game until the next expansion.
You can only blame A-Net on false advertisement: they said that would be a skill>time played game, which actually is no more the case, since grind is required to be more powerful to other people with overpowered grindable skills, and some details, like say, a variable hero I still fail to find (advertised on Nightfall manual).

Why would you want a higher level cap?
Yes, your numbers will get bigger, but the enemy levels will have to be increased to compensate. Thus, we arrive at the situation we have now, just with bigger numbers.
