What's your favorite Guild Wars?, Prophecies, Factions, NightFall, or even the EOtN add-on?
If you are a long-time player of Guild Wars, you probably own every game. I know I do. But then brings the question: Which is the best? Prophecies, Factions, NightFall, or Eye of the North? This can be judged on many things like storyline, skills, professions, etc. So share your thoughts on your favorite. Let me start off.
My personal all-time favorite is Factions. This was the game I first bought and played. Of course, I bought NightFall when it came out and Prophecies after, but they never stood up to this.
I think Factions did not have the best storyline, Nightfall did. But it was so much FASTER!!! In Prophecies (definitely least favorite) and Nightfall, gaining Exp is unbelieavably SLOW. Factions you gain levels fast and furious, especially if you do all the Secondary Profession Missions (which I recommend.)
I cannot fairly compare Factions to Prophecies storyline wise, but I can exp wise again. Propehecies...O-M-G!!! I could not play it after playing Factions. I think the max level for a character I've every had on Prophecies was like 6. On Factions I am whipping out Level 20's by the week.
For Professions, Factions also had the best in my opinion. Assassin is exceptionally my favorite profession of them all. It's fast and furious 24/7. Killing oppenents in 2-4 seconds always puts a smile one anyones face. Ritualist is also a fun profession to run when you need a change. Spirit Spamming is just a good variety from what the usual Point and Click professions like Elementalist is like.
Comparing to Eye of the North: I don't know...I guess EoTN is sort of fun.
Here's my take:
All in All:
1. Factions
2. Nightfall
3. Prophecies (no thought)
Storyline:
1. Nightfall
2. Factions
3. Prophecies
Professions:
1. Factions
2. Nightfall
3. Prophecies
And there we have it. That is my take on it all. Please post your take. I cannot wait to read what other people have to think about Guild Wars: A Great Game.
