When Guild Wars 2 was coming out, I was a little bit unimpressed. Sure it completely sold out IN A WEEK. Side track note -- how is that even possible for an MMO? Well the un-impressionism didn't last for long. Let me tell you why-- its better than sex. And here are a few reasons why.
I can make my character wear whatever I want without getting yelled at
How many times have you've tried to convince your significant other to wear something sexy but was met with disapproval? In Guild Wars 2, you don't have to
It Doesn't Judge Me
Remember that time when your girlfriend/boyfriend found out about that one time when you took the vacuum cleaner, trampoline, toaster, and made some sort of crazy sex machine? Oh... Us neither. But hypothetically when they did, remember how they freaked out and made a big deal like it hasn't been done before?
Well Guild Wars 2 doesn't judge at all. I flipping fell off thirty or so stories, taking 150k damage (yes you heard me, 150k damage) FROM WALKING OFF A LEDGE. Sure, a few random strangers laughed, but I sure did not get any scorn.
Really Bad Clichés Are Good
Think about getting roses for your girlfriend. It's overplayed but you'll never live it down and get sexy time if you, say, get her a giant tomahawk instead. In Guild Wars 2, Cliches are good.
When it comes to original lines, Guild Wars 2 wins. No, not really. As I play through the noble storyline, I constantly hear chants of “I’m rich you know” – as if I was oblivious to the fact that living in a three story flat in Divinity's Reach is a sign of poverty.
Mass Orgies of Like-Minded People doing Like-Minded things.
Ironically, you don’t need a guild to play Guild Wars 2. Funny, since you would think that the whole marketing concept would be built around joining a guild. The group missions are made so anyone can join, resulting in a giant debauchery of Norn, Charr, and humans in one concentrated area, killing Kol on repeat and assisting Dolyaks.
I've never felt so part of a group at any point in my life.
No Attachments
When you are done with Guild Wars 2, you can leave scot-free. No attachments at all. No wedding rings, kids, therapy... The list can go on.
Psych -- you just wasted 100 hours of your life and you still aren't level 80. Better luck next time.
