New Age works for me. Not really fancy, but still sounds pretty cool. Ordinarily I woulda done "I have something better..." but I don't have anything better. Too lazy to think of anything.

Extremely confused... GTA IV, broke records in sales... I'm pretty sure IV stands for 4 but their were still a bunch of people who were new to the series when buying it. Final Fantasy XXIV or w/e it's up to now... every one of them has been successful. Halo 3, another big hit, another number. So think of this before you make silly threads.

What? No! Numbers are always better.
We'll think about subtitles later. But the number MUST stay.

Everything is nicer when it's numbered. I always wondered why don't people get a codebar at nape of the neck when they are born, like Agent 47.

Everyone and everythin should - NO! - MUST be numbered.

I see no problem with it just being called Guild Wars 2...if you want proof just look at the Call of Duty PC series, the only one that wasnt numbered was an expansion and I think there is no doubt that this is a successful series.

The name should make it clear for everyone that it's not just another Guild Wars game, but an entirely NEW game of new quality which is set in the Guild Wars universe.

I see the number 2 in the name as a must, it can't be just Guild Wars: Something, for the reason stated above.
And a simple "Guild Wars 2" should work perfectly fine as it's going to be The only one core game - further releases are going to be expansions, not standalone games as far as we know.

Its probably just going to be like how prophecies was. it was originally just Guild Wars. The Prophecies tag got added when a new chapter came out.

It should be Guild Wars: Age Of Failure

Considering how bad Anet screwed up GW there are strong predictions GW2 will be much of the same. With bug updates and skill balances never meeting the deadline as they're supposed too.

The last thing Guild Wars needs is to try to copy JRPG's and give their game an exotic subtitle. I like "2", it's short, simple, and to the point.

You'd have to convince me that there's something wrong with "2" before I said it needed changing. Like someone already said, there's Diablo 2, Lineage 2, EverQuest 2, etc. etc. They were all very successful and didn't have to try to be off-beat with their game names.

I have a better idea...
Leave it as Guild Wars 2.

Honestly, just because you think it is "bad marketing" doesn't mean everyone should think the same.

I think Guild Wars 2 works just fine.

I think they will want to retain the "2" one way or another.

Guild Wars II: The Revelation, something like that.

I always thought it would be called something besides Guild Wars 2.

Guild Wars 2: The Search For More Money...

Hmm... I think it is better off just being called Guild Wars 2 with some sort of a tagline involving a word or words synonymous to an aftermath or result of what happened since the defeat of the Great Destroyer.

Dropping the number would be the marketing mistake, not leaving it in.

I wouldn't be surprised if we saw a subtitle of some sort. Something like...

Guild Wars II : Vekk and Zhed in the Wild, Wild West

I don't even think Guild Wars should be in the title. Its not as if its about guild wars! That seemed like a pre-release idea that sort of got dropped. So unless they make guild wars central to the new game they should call it something else. Maybe just Tyria?
