Cya Anet, go play your sub-par PvE and unrewarding PvP yourself.

Quite a lot, like I just played some Morrowind (which I never really liked) and realised how bad GW is, compared to it.

Since GW is so bad to you then leave. post crap like this is just dumb. if you don't want to be part of the community you don't have to be.

Morrowind is an action game compared to how dull and boring Guild Wars PvE is

Now you're just being a troll, lol.

Morrowind can be beaten in 20 minutes. There's no multiplayer. Combat & spellcasting is seriously lame. Too easy to just get away with murder (literally).
Yeah, Morrowind is so superior.

This post is about Oblivion which is going to eat Guild Wars for breakfast as it comes out around the same time. And if you like multiplayer so much, why don't you play WoW or Lineage ? Those games have a much better "multiplayer" than GW (not instanced world etc.)

Bleh, fanboys...

Hang on a sec....since when were we comparing the two games on multiplayer aspects? Just because Morrowind had no multiplayer, does not make it a bad game.
I love Guild Wars, I love Morrowind, and Oblivion looks certain to cure all the misgivings people had about Morrowind. Yes, I am a huge Elder Scrolls fan, but I agree with a lot of what people say is bad about Morrowind...just in my opinion the good far outweighed the bad.
And no, Morrowind can't be beaten in 20 minutes (unless you call playing the game the whole way through, then finding all the exploits and skipping out as much of the RPG element as you possibly can and go straight to the boss completing it).
And besides, I don't believe Morrowind is the kind of game you can complete.

And to the OP, I just dont see how you can compare GW to Oblivion like that.....two completely different games.

Awwww... so much for expressing an opinion in a discussion forum. All you naysayers do realise by responding in a negative way you are falling into troll-bait. Will you never learn? If you ignore the thread it will fall into oblivion (no pun intended...well a little).

But that being said, GW is a different game than Morrowind or Oblivion. Morrowind was friggin awesome when it came out, but not for everyone. Oblivion will be hopefully just as good.... but that doesn't mean you can't pop on GW and play it too. We can have the best of both worlds

They are both RPG's so they are more than comparable. And Guild Wars feels like a single player game most of the time, especially when you use henchies.

That's because you make it a single player game by using Henchies. GW allows you that option. Where's the option in Morrowind/Oblivion?

Both RPG's, true. But within the genre they could hardly be more different.

It has to offer a huge game world, numerous NPCs with life-like schedules, and full player interactivity with the game world. Combat is no longer based on luck with random die-rolls. Stats obviously play a part (as in most RPGs, including, might I add, Guild Wars).
Need I continue?

it is simple for me.

i will get and hopefully enjoy both.

ARENA and DAGGERFALL were the most fun and hopefully OBLIVION will be excellent as well.

as for chapter 2 getting it is easy for me as i have confidence they will keep improving even as they stumble a bit

well... what if the farmer sues you? then it gets quite pricey.

but any way this thread should be closed IMO. I dont think any one cares which game this guy is gonna buy in the spring.
