What is this I don't even...

GW2 is fun for some not for others.

Without a doubt the PvP in GW2 is really good. One of the best pvp games made in awhile.

I say GW2 falls very very short on PvE though. It is primarily solo outside dungons. The Dynamic events are not really that fun at least no more then questing. The lack of holy trinity works wonders for pvp balancing but is very anti group again. There are no defined roles. Crafting is sorta bad. Weak story.

GW2 isn't a bad game for PvPers but for those who hate PvP honestly I would say GW2 is the worst mmo made since the original launch of XIV 1.0. XIV right before shutdown was a far better mmo then GW2 PvE wise.

At the absolute max GW2 should get a C or C- for a grade.

blerg, I don't even like the pvp in that game its just a zerg fest.

Lets not get into a "which mmo is better" fight here, that is not what i meant to argue within my side notes. I simply meant to acknowlege that pitting FFXIV against its competition is valid and ultimately beneficial to us players as a way to drive the improvement of the game.

The number of subscriptions/players on a game has no bearing on my appreciation of a game.

she solo'd a monster that is designed for groups in FATE, but then she realized her level was to high and, then complains about it?

People have become used to being rewarded for everything anymore, thanks to devs continuously increasing the reward given for even the most menial of tasks. They even feel entitled to it in many cases. So, it doesn't surprise me at all that she assumed that to be the case with the FATE she did.

Copying this design from Guild Wars 2 isn't a crime in and of itself

LOLOLOL this newb thinks GW2 invented public quests...

Yeah, GW2 is apparently the MMO "everyone is copying" right now - at least according to forum goers.

At least WoW is getting a break for once, eh?

It can afford a break, since it prints money (as opposed to GW2).

What did you expect, professionalism? They lost that credibility when Sophie decided to write a "half-assed" piece of "journalism".
