This is a great edition to the guild wars saga, fantastically, fun, fabulously, P-H-A-T
Gameplay
Gameplay is great, couldn't ask for anything else... tuns of equitable weapons and armors threw out the game. Some things though come faster then others in nightfall. The controls only take you a hour tops to get down normally, plus if you don't go changing them around you can use the keyboard index inside the game cover.
Graphics
Graphics are good still but still the same, so its kind of 50 50 sense they don't feel like bettering there games. Still for most people sense it has been what millions of people have grown to know and love it really doesn't effect the game.
Sound
I still have a problem with there sound like i did in the first one, i would say out of the three factions had the sound tracks pin pointed the best of all 3. Even though its not as bad as the first one its still to damn quiet for the most part. They need to keep in mind some people don't like quiet all the time and we are to concentrated to use actually songs. So in my opinion they need to fix this issue for the next one making availability's for those of us who want sound. But more or less you'll be active enough in the game to not notice the lack of sound you'll be hearing. And in some zones of the game it can be more effective then others. Still factions rocks the vote on sound over the 3.
Value
If you like RPG's i guess sums it up. But to be honest guild wars has a lot to offer and nightfall has an impressive story line. I actually thought the second time i played threw the islands was even more amazing sense i knew what to do faster then the first time. Also the mouths actually move in nightfall for the cut scenes.

NOTES
A little Advice
I say grows on you because unless you have played previous guild wars and enjoyed them, you might have slight doubts at first so a small bit of advice to have fun filled game play due to lack of speech craft from player to player in the game just join the first guild you come across... Thats what i did and it really made things hundreds of times less dull within only the first week.
My Thoughts
This one is my favorite overall out of factions and the first one because this one is just right for newcomers and fast leveling compared to the first one, factions is much harder to get use to for being new, it almost expects you to understand the game completely but nightfall kind of drags you along the way, baby steps at a time which can also be semi annoying for the players of the previous guild wars. Though you can use your old characters if you preferred.
Facts
Iv noticed a lot of people calling nightfall an expansion? Nightfall is not an expansion though it sums it up, it in fact is a game of its own requiring neither factions nor the first one to play. The only benefit of having the other two is using your created characters in all guild wars and making it easier to stay in touch with people, guilds what not. The reason it isn't an expansion is because expansion technically means extension and this is a game of its own though can be compatible with both other guild wars.
