Rating: - Good for PvP'ers
On its own, Factions is a good role-playing and PvP MMORPG. And only in Factions can you create the assassin and ritualist professions.
The plague-infested streets in the beginning of the role-playing game are dull, but the landscapes get much better once you're out of town. The storyline is interesting, but not as good as Prophecies or Nightfall. So when I created my assassin, I played Factions long enough to collect a few good skill combos then took the character to Nightfall.
If you enjoy PvP then you'll get into the alliance battles where teams on opposing sides play territorial games to redraw the battlemap for their guild's chosen faction. Some find it fun, I feel PvP is frustrating. Thus I give the game a fun-factor rating of 3 stars. Overall I give 5 stars for the excellent graphics, character development, skills and role-playing options, which include challenge missions (great fun).
The best part about ANY Guild Wars game is there's no monthly fee...just buy the game. The Guild Wars online store is available in the login user interface, and offers special game upgrade purchases at reasonable prices.
Rating: - Game of the Year
Buy this game! Guild wars has amazing graphics and a intresting combat engine. I have not played the PvP section of the game, yet, only the role-playing section. Guild wars is an fun and interesting game. Amazing graphics. You can see every detail in your players body. I im a hardcore gamer and belive me this game has amazing graphics. The game is a solid built MMORPG destined to be on of the greatest games of the year. Some of the monsters can be overwelming though. I usually travel with some henchmen. You can also get help from friends on quests. Buy this game.
