User Rating: 9 | Guild Wars Factions PC
Guild Wars: Factions somewhat of an expansion for Guild Wars but can function on its own. Allow though there is a new map for Factions (Cantha). When advancing along the storyline and traveling through cities and towns you can eventually find a dock and take a boat ride to the previous map of Tyria only if you own Guild Wars as well. In Factions you and granted all classes and skills as in Guild Wars (Prophicies Campaign) plus two more classes with their own new and unquie skills. The two new classes, Assassin and Ritualist. The only thing you are nto allowed to do if you do not own the original Guild Wars is go to the Prophicies campaign map.
One thing that old school players have grown to dislike about Factions is the speed at which you level compared to leveling in Prophicies. It is alot easier and faster to level up in Factions, which I find to be a little unfair.
Overall I would say this is a good expansion if you wish to go through another story sequence or just simply play some different styles of fighting in PvP.
(Worth buying, and playing)
