If you like Role-Playing games, kind of Diablo II style, you’re going to love Guild Wars. Guild Wars is an online multiplayer game only, which is free, and offers a very well designed world to play in. The world you play in Guild Wars is extremely big and filled with quests. The environment is beautiful, especially if you’re running on a fast PC with a good graphic card. Though this game does not require an extremely fast PC, it is recommended to have at least 1.2GHz or faster because you will be playing with over 500 players at once. Guild Wars lets you play with a party of two, but as you increase in level, more players can join you on your quests. Joining or creating a Guild is the main factor of Guild Wars, and the wars between guilds is very fun. The game offers 6 character classes, which is called professions. You start off by choosing your primary profession and as you advance in the game, you are given the choice of choosing a secondary profession. That means there is a total of 30 different character types that you could chose from. The professions are: Warrior, a strong fighter in melee combat; Ranger, very able with long ranged weapons and can charm animals which can accompany him/her through the game; a Monk, which uses white magic: heals, protects allies, and can cast spells on enemies dealing holy damage; Elementalist, a character which can summon fire, water, earth, and air; a Mesmer, a master of illusion and control; and a Necromancer, which can turn an undead creature to assist him/her in battle and cast death spells on enemies. You can chose to make your character male or female; small, medium, or tall; and you can customize what he/she will look like. Overall I do not have any negative remarks and Guild Wars is a must have.
