Reasons why you should play Guild Wars 2, the best MMO:
- no sub, free core game, paid DLC (very worth, new features/mechanics, subclasses, content)
- best of action combat/mobility/active defense + classic rotation/skills, so fluid, no other combat like this
- horizontal progression, your end game max level max stat gear you worked for stays relevant (since 10 years ago), but cosmetics, legendaries, QoL items and upgrades, build diversity, mastery skills, new game mechanics, achievements etc, there's still more to "grind* if you wish, everything you do is rewarded and relevant - respects your time and minimum FOMO
- unique classes, quite diff from other games, like the Mesmer or Revenant especially with the subclass (specs)
- flexible builds, flexible playstyle, no strict holy trinity or class bound roles, almost every class and their specs can be built to do a variety of roles, or even theory craft new builds, something to get used to sometimes - such as aggro and tanking can be very different and based on diff things for diff encounters (i.e. positioning or certain stats)
- true open world and multiplayer, beautiful landscapes including verticality, dynamic events, massively 100+ player meta/bosses events or PvP (WvW)
- most amazing mount system in all mmos, not just speed boosts, but real momentum, weight, feel, and skills needed to use them, plus the assortment of skills they bring and a variety of interesting mounts
- years of content, living world episodic releases, expansions, annual mini expansions, it's still ongoing story with tons of beautiful maps. all content (mostly) is still very alive with players doing all content and all maps, everything still relevant, people pursuing achievemenrs, people leveling alts, people going for world events, or people playing at their own paces! you'll always see people, old content is not just left behind! and do you have to do them all? NO, if you don't want to but
- depth of lore is amazing, every single detail and nook and cranny has lore rich delights, even the Snargle Goldclaw smut fictions is fun to find....
- yes we have raids and some are pretty challenging, very mechanic heavy and requires a good group, with challenge modes and more. there's dungeons, fractals, strikes and raids... so pick any level of content you want!
- yes we have housing - actually we have entire maps of our own to customize whether it's guild hall or personal housing maps with full featured place as you want design and decoration system, really epic builds
- yes we have cat girls - full furries or just cat ears (or fox ears or elf ears or...) , we have a lot of fashion wars! shiny, realistic, less clothes, more armor, whatever you wish
- free flow leveling and play, following personal quest is only a tiny portion of the game, wander and participate in tons of events or explore the map,or craft, you'll always be progressing
- Structured arena PvP, casual duel areas, or open world wvw for large scale sieges or roaming and skirmishes, play as you want
- super welcoming kind helpful supportive community, always eager to help, even raid training servers and more, this is not a competitive focused game so naturally everyone stays pretty chill
- tons of resources or even plug ins and add ons to help, highly recommend research, it's a massive historied MMO afterall and all players use the resources out there
- remember they're gonna be actively working on GW2 with overhauls and QoL as they always do and new content even after GW3 launches, each guild wars game having its own character and flavor of gaming!
