and yet they will not have a dedicated Healer class. How will the party survive and succeed if I am not there with the heals? That responsibility should not be shared with others!

Looks good, have to admit my attention has been on FF14 in the MMO space, if that doesn't live up to expectations then this will be my next port of call.

Will need to turn of the character voice work though that's guna get annoying fast.

Looks ok, graphically was hoping for better though, the PvP aspect won't be my thing at all but if it offers enough PvE stuff then looks like it could be a lot of fun.

I think it looks BETTER graphically than FF14 if you want my opinion!

FF14 has better character models and more detail generally, but I like the look of GW2 more too. Both games have fantastic art direction, but Arenanet has always been very good at pushing their art as far as they can with tech they have. I still think the first Guild Wars can be very pretty, despite being so old, and this game obviously is a big upgrade over the original. The environments look really great. GW also came a long way from its beta to its retail release, so I wouldn't assume they're done with the visuals. They're obviously further along in that department than they were at the same point in the original's development, but they've always been about knocking out the gameplay details first and then worrying about the visuals later. That's a great way to develop a solid game.

I'm also pretty sure GW2 will have better performance on midrange PC's. The original was super scalable, so hopefully GW2 is as well.

Lies and Slander!

It's too bad I will have to wait a while to play this, I need something to play! XIV looks like balls, Tera isn't out yet, Vindictus Beta is over, Bioware hates me. Uh....

As someone who bought GW twice and multiple expansion packs, I feel I deserve a beta now.

Oh, who am I kidding. All that and I barely played it post-beta.

Not even close from a technical standpoint, however this game will have a very streamlined UI and control system, which is where FF14 is guna fail big time.

As Grift mentioned though this game is designed to be accessible to lower specced PC players.

I can't wait to play this to be honest. Demand beta now :D

I'm with jollipop that FF14 has better graphics but I think that will change with time. When it come out, this game will look awesome

Guardian is up! http://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/professions/...

Guardians also have a number of special skill types:

Spirit Weapons—The guardian can summon spirit weapons to fight at his side for a limited time. Spirit weapons cannot be attacked by enemies and can be commanded to inflict a powerful attack before disappearing. For example, Hammer of Wisdom can be summoned to fight alongside a guardian, then commanded to knock down an enemy and vanish.

Symbols—The guardian places symbols on the ground, where they inflict damage to enemies or deliver a benefit to allies. Symbols persist for a few seconds and then go away. For instance, Symbol of Faith is a hammer attack that leaves a transient symbol on the ground, giving allies the Vigor boon.

Wards—A ward is a marked area on the ground that stops enemies from passing through while allowing allies to move freely. For example, a staff-wielding guardian can create a Line of Warding in front of him that keeps enemies from reaching the allies behind him.

Aegis—Guardians are adept in the use of Aegis, a removable boon that blocks the next attack. Guardians have access to this boon through the virtue of Courage.

GDC presentations. They revealed the thief last week too, but I haven't seen any details. Can't believe I almost forgot about GW2. This is my most anticipated RPG.

I'm just curious if we can expect a western release at the same time as the Korean one, I want this game so bad :O

Hmm I hope open beta comes soon.

Yes ArenaNet are American developers. I remember alpha testing GW1 way back in the day. It was such a different experience than this. They let us play that game before the graphics were even done. It seems like GW won't have a proper closed beta until it's completely polished. I can't wait either. Here's some awesome armor in the meantime.

Well.. mostly armor.. except the Mesmer (right?) who looks like she belongs in a Victoria's Secret catalog.
