Overall i liked GW1 better, because: Variation of Skills: years ago we spent hours trying to think of new dope team compsStory: I am not really into story, because i dont like playing alone - but the story in GW1 felt far superior and honestly that whole character personalization system feels pretty lackluster to me. And you always found people to play story missions together, because everyone played the same story.PvE: It was more challenging fighting against a group that has certain roles inherit, so you have to think about which target to prioritize (healers..).I do like dedicated monk classes a lot...Cash Shop: Yes i understand that this payment model is pretty much meta irl, and its not really a problem to me but i think i got much much more out of each gw1 campaign than i got from gw2 expansions..even tho the base game was not f2p (again i hate the gw2 playable story with a passion)Pre-heroes GW1 was probably the best mmo i've ever played Game had crisp sharp UI and probably even runs on a potato smoothly. However right now i would strive for GW2, because: much greater active player basevery good class balanceThere are also a lot other improvements but these two are the main reasons for me currently putting gw1 aside, even though i liked the game better.Also thumbs up for being able to use markdown in a forums post!
