"I think that the idea that the MMO crowd doesn't exist is belied by the number of players who are still in World of Warcraft"

I want a good MMO, but I also don't want to pay a lot to play it properly.

    Guild Wars 2 is the only MMO that doesn't aggravate me.

    • Feels like a real video game. You can dodge and stuff.
    • Other players can only help. No "kill stealing"
    • Other players are frictionless. They show up, do whatever, leave. No need to make a formal party
    • Level cap doesn't go up. No need to chase stats forever.

    You do have to buy the expansions, but the core game is free now.
