Guild Wars 2 Manifesto Video: For MMO Fans And Haters Alike
I've been interested in Guild Wars 2 for some time now, particularly once I found out about how they're dumping some of the MMO genre's most restricting conventions. No healers and no death penalties? Alright, I'm listening. Today developer ArenaNet released a video showcasing the game and what they're calling their "MMO Manifesto." Needless to say, I continue to be impressed and interested.
The most eyebrow-raising line in the video comes early on from ArenaNet founder Mike O'Brien: "If you love MMOs, you'll want to check it out Guild Wars 2, and if you hate MMOs, you'll really want to check out Guild Wars 2." Check out the video for yourself below and see if you agree with him.
