I might have to try factions first. guildwars is getting dull and im just waiting til my birthday to get a different one (although GW will always be a part of me like the rest of my games, and the acct will still be there for later)

BUT, and this is a huge but. (pun intended)

I might try out factions before i totally leave (for a bit) because assassins look pretty cool and remind me of rogues on WoW.

I dont want to leave (for a bit) but GW seems to be getting stale because of all the same things over and over, and the fact that all the gear/weapons/etc have the same stats, and it seem pointless to me to grind for titles and stuff that doesnt improve on my overall gameplay.

I perver PvE over PvP which is one of the reasons that I like WoW, the quest rewards accually compell me to do the quests and I can use the items that i get from them.

do you think that assassins and factions are fun enough for me to stay playing guildwars or should I just leave (for a bit) and go back to WoW (which I will play anyway even if i stay)?

I stayed because I had friends in real life that played but now they are all gone. and after my last break, nobody on my friends list logs on anymore.

also i wanted to beat NF and prof which i did.

Theres no point in buying factions only to quit, so ima say just go do whatever it is that takes your fancy.

The Factions chapter is pretty easy and quick to finish. You will spend money and be bored again within days after beating Factions. Factions towns are mostly deserted by the way. But hey if you want to spend the money to play like a week or two longer it's all up to you.

If you're really bored of GW, getting Factions and making a sin will only hold your interest for so long, before you find yourself bored and wanting to quit again. It's your choice...doesn't seem worth it imo.

See, when I was your age, we called it wanking. But candycoating is an apt euphemism.

I might just go and give it away to lowbies then.

When you were my age dinosaurs still walked the earth. Your idea of a date was bash the bitch across the head, and then drag her away for some loving.

So you are asking US if you would like 'sins enough to keep playing this game?

Erm....no you won't like playing as an assassin because you don't like to fight up close. Furthermore, you are easily annoyed by the sounds the daggers make, so after 2-3 hours you will be suffering from a tremendous headache.

So...yeah, just quit GW and be done with it.

Assassins are fun in pve, so i suggest trying out factions!

I like melee except when i get lodged between 2 enemies and they make me stop. also noises don't annoy me. but I think Factions probably costs $30-$40 so would it be worth it? especially since so many people are saying its easy?

My honest opinion would be to take a break from GW. Factions is a good campaign, but it's short and sweet. The assassin and ritualist are great fun to play, but in the end you'd just be getting back to the general grind.

If you feel that GW is getting stale for you then buying a new chapter won't cure the underlying issue. Take a break from GW and play another game for a while, and come back to GW when you feel like you want to play it again (your account and characters will remain the same no matter how long you leave them).
