So, now that I’ve found some stuff to read (and time to read it) I found some stuff in my RSS feeds. BTW if you’re using FireFox and want a nice RSS reader I can recommend Bamboo. It’s proven itself worthy of my subscription to the entire internet.
Anyways onto what I was supposed to be writing about that may or may not interest me. Guild Wars 2 is now free… kinda.
The main game is free, however you’ll have to buy the new expansion coming out. Seems like an interesting way to do it.
“We believe that if people love Guild wars 2, they’re gonna buy the expansion pack,” O’Brien says when I ask why ArenaNet is doing this. “The expansion pack is such a great value. There’s so much content, not only in the expansion pack but in all the free updates that will come past that.” While Guild Wars 2 is now free, it won’t receive future content updates—including the newly announced raids. Those are earmarked for Heart of Thorns, which will essentially become the live version of the game.
I guess one of these years I might give it a try. Maybe even give Guild Wars another try. Back when it was given to me I didn’t really have an interest in MMORPG’s, but with my happy fun time adventures in Skyrim I feel like I’ve learned to appreciate another genre. But that might be a ways down the road because… games. There’s lots of them.
