what i actually liked the most about gw2, i just had to pay that first $30 for the game, and that's it... none of that 15 bucks a month bs. and yes, i did find it an enjoyable game too. i really liked how the weapon/skill combos worked out. but that's just me. though it's been years since i've played it. when i get into just about any mmo, at some point i'll get to a place where i'm sick to death of all mmo's for a good long while... till my friends tempt me back to em. think i've been strictly single-player for about 5 years or so by now.

I don't mind paying a sub if the game is worth it. To me it was just a big kiddie game, bordering on my little pony level. I've played GW2 twice...on release and after the expansion came out. In both instances leveling characters was a chore and what was fun in the game to me only lasted so long. It just has no long-term appeal to me. The first time around I quite enjoyed doing the jumping puzzles and the second time around I enjoyed gaining the gliding abilities. For the rest it was just a chaotic mess running from one so called event to another.
To each their own of course but I don't see how you could play it for that long. Leveling characters alone is dead boring. Even Anet admitted that by bringing items into the game that allow you to skip levels.
I hear you about MMOs though. I have reached that point via SWTOR. Just sick and tired of MMOs and the falling quality of expansions and hoping for things that never come....and in SWTOR you can actually pay yourself blue on cosmetic gamble packs since there isn't much else to do. Nah, enough of that.
