Goodbye, farewell, and thank you

After over three years and over 4,000 hours I have decided to stop playing Guild Wars. But before anyone references doom and gloom the reason is to have more time for real life things.

I have thouroughly enjoyed playing Guild Wars over the past few years; it has been a truly phenominal experience. ArenaNet have created one of the best games of all time, supported it throughout its life with consistent care and commitment, and should be proud of all that they have acomplished.

I have finished every quest and mission in the game, killed every foe, aquired EVERY item, kitted out every character and hero, maxed most of the titles, finished top 10 and top 20 in GvG seasons (way back when), won halls 67 times despite being (barely) rank 4, had a run of 50 in TA, beat PnH, EVIL, WM, Rus, played RA until I fell asleep in my chair, finished every campaign with every class, deleted a myriad of characters on porpose and by mistake, stalked the forums, fixed the wiki, and screamed at the top og my lungs on vent.

Guild Wars is a piece of art and I will in many ways be sad to see it behind me. Those who don't see this, or complain about minor changes are really missing something.

I leave behind one PvE character with a set of armour, starter sword, a shield, and a herring. But I also made a few people happy by giving away well over one million gold and items.

Farewell,

Edwinna Elbert (Maestro Ed)

Bravo!

you do know that this will be deleted right?

good luck to you in whatever

Glad you enjoyed your playtime to the end. Hopefully others can appreciate the fun aspect of the gaming experience as you seem to have.

Since this is technically not a discussion I'm going to close it, but it won't be deleted.
