Guild Wars 2 arrives this Saturday! Gamersledge PSA
The official launch date is this Friday night/Saturday morning at 12am PST (3am EST). However, they have announced that they may launch up to 3 hours early (12am EST or 9pm PST)… Remember that single-named characters will go quickly. Just get in there, make it and don’t worry about what it is… once you have it made, the name is yours for 24 hours even if you delete the character.
Secondly, the server we are all building characters on at launch will be Ferguson’s Crossing. So if you want to play with us, that’s where we’ll be!
Look to see you in game!
So here we go. Tonight will be my delving into an area I generally avoid for many various reasons. Honestly I wouldn’t be participating if it wasn’t for the fact there is no subscription fee. The big question is, can they survive in the one elephant environment? Cause that damn elephant doesn’t move easily. And is adding kung-fu pandas.
Yeah, I think there are enough differentiators and fun gameplay options to make it stand out. Is it a wow killer? No. And what I like about it is they don’t care. They are following their own vision and want it to be successful, yes. I hope it becomes a wow killer.
Being the only one of our loosely knit group that didn’t partake in the beta (or even knew he was doing this till less than a week ago) I wonder how differently I will see things. I know it is supposed to be different. It is supposed to be more actiony. It is supposed to provide a tailored experience. I guess we’ll have to see how that all really plays out.
