    ArenaNet continues to try and innovate on the MMO market with Guild Wars 2. Both in gameplay and pricing model Guild Wars has always tried to be different. Guild Wars 2 ended up more like an MMO than Guild Wars 1 but it definitely did a lot of things right. Wildstart on the other hand didn't try to reinvent the wheel... even going with a monthly fee and the result was a giant flop... but fear not! They came to their senses, dropped that monthly fee, cleaned up what was already a pretty solid game and have turned it into a pretty well rounded MMO that focuses more on challenging group content than most other MMOs these days.

    As its currently my main mmo I will go for gw2!
    Both games turned f2p around the same time but gw2 succeded better in my view.
    Wildstar is good at some point and have a great pve part of the game but lacks pvp content, on other hand gw2 is excellent pvp based game that got a huge boost to PvE players with realase of HoT expansion ( raids , reworked fractals and new meta events in Hot zones).

    Easy vote for me, I wanted to like Wildstar and it going free was very appealing to me. It has a charm about it... but the controls really bugged me and Guild Wars 2 did it right from the start so it just wasn't worth it... especially when compared to Guild Wars 2. Voting the same way as that.

    It's a core tenant of Guild Wars 2, it really needs to be adopted in other MMOs too. One of the worst parts of MMOs is having to spawn camp bosses and fighting over quest mobs. GW2 solves both of them.

    Agree with you, i remember how much i was angry when some1 stole in from of me, rare creature that i was w8ing. On GW2 just go and kill things, also for events, u just join, no need to ask some1 for invitation. I also like fast spawn rate on quest items/monsters
