Worth coming back?

Hai guys.
I have quit playing GW back in January or so, after year and a half of playing it. I don't know what made me think about getting back to it now, maybe because I saw some of my old screenshots... Anyhow, I'm pondering about installing Guild Wars again.
My question is, is this game better, worse, or the same as 8 months ago? Anything new about GW that is worth coming back?
I'm not much intrested in PvE as I completed everything I had in mind and I don't plan to redo it, even if I would return, it would probably be some RA and AB / afk'ing in outposts. I don't care about titles either and trying to complete my FoW set would be too much of a chore.
Since I don't have guild (obviously) most of the fun stuff is denied for me (GvG, HA and guild e-dramas).
Thanks for reading.

If you have no interest in PVE than your only recourse is to join a quality PVP guild and start the real partying. The only way to know if you will like it is to do it.... imo *it* is worth it.

Probably not worth the hassle of installing. You can easily join a guild to do what you want to do, though.

Some of the different things are a few elite skill buffs that were made, split PvP/PvE skills and changes to GvG. You can check the official wiki for the list and see if that interests you. We can't really tell you if you're going to have fun or not.

It's called GUILD Wars. You're missing out.

Join a friendly guild for socalizing and PvP. If you can't do that, then don't come back.

Shame, shame, shame ! First off the game rocks, and after being gone that long your gonna freakin be loving it ... 2nd, what hassle lol? Do it the easy way.. download the client from the site, install the initial vitals, run a -image and go to bed, done.

Not much has changed, everyone at ANet is spending all their time on GW2.

Guild Wars is a great game but hardly anything changed since you quit. If GW was not the game for you then it still is not your game now.

Its probably not worth your time to install it. You mentioned only installing it for AB and RA. RA gets old after about an hour and AB gets old after about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Completing the final missions in each game is hardly "doing everything" in pve. But thats neither here nor there, some people like pve some like pvp. You should stick to minesweeper.

i lol'ed at your avatar pic, i nominate your pic for biggest douche pick of the thread. nice 80's hairdo.

hmm 8 months ago. well that was when i played pvp seriously before my comp blew up. im guessing it is more or less still the same? if ur friends kept playing thru the 8 months they may be quite burned out by now. ima just say it is not worth getting back into

Well, if you just plan to RA/AB, you might be disappointed and lose interest in a couple of days if you are not going for a title.

If you want to enjoy some PVE, some dungeons are fun to play, even if they have already been done.

I could do slavers every day and not get bored of it. also Kinslayer is fun too.. The snowman dungeon is fun just for killing huge mobs.

Well, I must say I'm surprised by a number of replies telling me NOT to come back. And they are probably right since I didn't plan to join guilds anyway, and all of my friends stoped playing.
It's just wierd, because back then when I was playing, everyone who would say something like:
"I'm quitting, the game is dead", people would respond "NO U"
But now it seems that everyone agrees there's nothing left out there

It got worse since 8 months ago, so the answer would be no.

Don't waste your time. Do something entertaining instead.

They are saying don't come back because they don't want to have to see your "QQ GW is dead" thread in a few months after you quit again.

Yes it is and it will be. This was and still is a great game. Endless possibilities I would say. There are a bit less people playing nowadays but still the community is very large. Most of the changes recently are connected to skill balancing and changes so for PvP you should not be bored.

If you've allready played a year and a half you've probally got your moneys worth out of it.

Well, to be fair, you said you didn't weren't going to play PvE or join a guild. People aren't saying there's "nothing left out there". They're saying that if you plan to reinstall to do a little RA, AB, and AFKing in outposts, it's probably not worth it. Take your extremely limiting criteria into consideration before interpreting the responses.

A game is as fun as you make it. If you intended to come back, join a guild, and play PvE and PvP, I'm sure you'd have plenty to do, and many more folks would recommend it.

Came back a few weeks ago from nearly a year's absence. I am having fun. More things are better than worse.

I think PvE has improved a lot. Not sure about PvP because I have not had a chance to play very much of it. The Fort Aspenwood teeter totter is hideously unbalanced, as usual, now heavily biased to the Kurzick side. I think the Luxons were on top when I left.

ANet is making an effort to improve GW1 and keep it alive. Seems to be plenty of players. Take a test drive and see; not as if it's costing you anything.
