Extremely playable sums up my experience of Guild Wars.
Varied classes with multiple skill options available to suit different challenges.
Good graphics, with excellent area design. A sound and easily accessible interface.
Awesome value, due to no monthly charge.
Constant updates keep the game in tip top shape.
Negative:
For a game of its kind, Guild Wars have few negative points. Its simplicity might be viewed as a minus, but imho it provides a relaxing gaming experience.
After a while I stopped playing Guild Wars, but this is not because of any particular flaw in the game. Rather it is my personal dislike of what I consider lacklustre storylines and environment feedback in online games in general.
I have no problems recommending it to anyone who wants a faster paced, and less grind intensive cooperative multiplayer experience compared to for example World of Warcraft.
