Will you be purchasing Guild Wars 2?

For only 50$ why the hell not. Even if it only gives me 1/100th of the fun time GW gave my It would still be a better value than almost every other game out there.

I think a lot of people here have questions that have been answered in a way here: http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Guild_Wars_2.

Based on the "projected" gw2, I will buy it.

Yes - on day 1 (or before if i get beta)

I might not agree with all the last six months changes in GW1 - but the amount of time i've played make me believe that the same developer group will turn out a game that is worth playing. BUT i think I will still be playing
GW1 as well.
If after a few months I find i've made a mistake I'll carry on doing the stuff I like on GW1.
After three years - and a low bordom threshold - I still find different things to do as and when I feel like it.

i met alot of nice people tru gw1 and i hope to meet them again in gw2 ^_^

You can't put words to what you can not know. If someone wanted to say I voted yes because there was no maybe option, they could have posted that fact.

I voted yes because there was no maybe option.

I shall most definately buy it! After spending 2,000+ hours in GW1 I definately want to play the sequel!

Voted "no." This could change if: it gets good reviews, and (at least seems) to get away from some of the things that have been happening to GW1; and if they make a linux-native version. So, i really doubt that it will ever happen.

Without a doubt I will buy it.

The main question for me isnt the money, its the time investment again. Depends when it comes out and where I am at with things.

That said, I'm also very unlikely to get a new PC. I've long been a Mac user. My PC was having troubles, so I retired it, and I from GW (again). I currently dont have an Intel Mac, but that's my next computer purchase, as well as a Mac laptop. No way I'm installing Windows crap on my Macs, so unless Anet finally releases a Mac version (hah) or I have a change of heart on getting a new PC, its pretty much a "no" for me whatever the reviews are. I say that now I know (lol), but if its buy a new gaming PC specifically for GW2, its going to have to be the ideal game and far better than the "I wonder if my old crappy PC can run it" scenario that GW was.

I'm still here on the forums. Still love the game, obviously, so that at least is saying something. Guess we'll see.

You sound like your taking offense because I didn't vote. I gave a reason why I didn't vote if you don't agree fine.

No I can't decide between a yes or no. The game has not been released nor is it near release...

Agreed that this poll really needed a "maybe." GW2 is too far away and not enough is known before a beta to really make a definitive choice. There will be a few who will get it no matter what, and a few more who wont get it no matter what, but I would imagine the majority to be in the "maybe" category, myself included.

Chill dude. Some people are wise enough to not make decisisons about buying products that aren't even on the market yet. This thing isn't even in beta yet! Don't get your bowels in an uproar because you were too shortsighted to realize that a lot of peeps are still undecided.

Voted yes.

I Believe that Anet/Ncsoft will learn from past mistakes and deliver us a fresh start over that will rock us like when we first dipped into prophecies so many years ago. I can't wait for it!

It's hard to answer this question when we don't even know what GW2 will actually be. Funny, that.

If it's anything like GW1 is now, there won't be any point. If you want grind, there are better games out there for it, where both the aesthetic and practical rewards are far greater than anything you can get in GW. If you want skill, there are better games out there. And if you want community, there are better games out there. About the only hook that GW continues to have is the pseudo-MMO aspect without a monthly fee, but that's not a significant factor for me. If anything, the game might benefit from a higher bar for entry

Yeah. I like trying new things though that'll be the major reason. Sure as hell won't have anything to do with how ANet is handling things now n days.

Doubt I'll ever get it.

If I do get it, it will be right away. I hate coming late into games, you miss out on too much.

90% chance I don't, though.

Maybe he is just interested in the undercurrent of those who would say yes/no at this time.

If you are sitting on the fence, don't post. It's a yes/no thread. He wants yes or no answers, and why. No maybe's. No, well, if I don't see my shadow, I'll buy it, but if I do see it, I'll run away and stay home 6 weeks.

It's his thread. You want a maybe, post your own thread. after the first five people saying they want "maybe" with no change, I'd think they could guess there won't be that choice.

On topic...by the time they come out with a new game, I'll be onto something better. There are a lot of games just out or in the pipe. I'm willing to cough up the price of three lattes and change per month for a game that fits my tastes.

To the one that hoped for a Linux port...Anet is Microsoft's RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO. They are DirectX bitches that have all Microsoft servers....which explains their slowness and lack of good security. Vista will be the min req for the game. WoW actually is the best MMO on the linux side, and you still need an emulator for it.

I voted Yes, and I'll have someone pre-order it online for me lolol !

Arena Net, give something special to players who pre-order please thank you.

@Sir Seifus Halbred, quickmonty, and Clarissa F quickmonty, I don't care what he chooses or if he chooses at all. I don't know why, but for some odd reason it just seemed like the dumbest thing to say. What the RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO is maybe going to tell anyone? I've seen other people ask for that, but please mod don't change it. You're either with or against(hypothetically). Clarissa basically explained it perfectly, I thought I'd never see anyone with that much understanding. If you can't decide then you don't have to vote.
