I had liked your post, but gave up after read this 4th topic.What the kitten you trying to say there? "Stop focusing on competitiveness and make pvp casual"? It simply contradicted the rest of the post. Very few games ever had a primary focus on E-Sports and became the biggest E-Sports. If a developer has E-Sports in mind they lose focus on the actual game and lack on the creative abilities. Guild Wars 1 had 0 focus on E-Sports but the GvG became their primary E-Sports because it was fun not because they wanted it to become some sort of E-Sports phenomenon. You can't compare both since it was a totally different period. 15 years back then, you didn't have a lot of games with an " esport " objective and you didn't have that many games that could be played on the internet. Today, that's quite the opposite and most games can provide a competitive part. That being said, there are lot of similarities between games. Implementing GW1 features could be a risk considering people " seem " to appreciate having a cash shop , a casual competitive mode and a " top players " level. Sure it would attract veterans and GW1 players, but is that population big ? Considering Guild Wars 1 was the 2nd biggest selling MMO competing with the WoW release. I think there is a great chance it would boost sales and revive the dying PvP we see today. Its an easy port to get these game modes in the game and also can tie into the story already. Also your cash shop argument does not apply to making competitive PvP options. You do realize that GW1 had a cash shop?
