Well I bought the game a while ago, found it extremely unappealing, though some are addicted. I really dislike the game, it's repetative, boring, and you have to be in a party to see people while outside the main cities. Recently I was paid to test an upcomming game in auran studios in my capital city, and we talked about various games as we were comparing similarities, we concluded that the GuildWars Beta was extremely fun, as it went past beta, it lost its fun touch. They turned it into something horrible.
However, remember this was only mine and their opinions.
