I was kind of disappointed with the time I got with GW2. Don't think I'll be giving it another shot. I wanted a more detailed and freeform character advancement system with more choice, and I'm also kind of tired of generic fantasy.

Not that I agree with how he presented it but its easy to see how Yakubs was perturbed by your post. "I dont like level based MMOs so I'm kinda eh on GW2" is an opinion, sure, but doesn't really say anything worthwhile about the game itself for people interested in making a purchase decision.

Can you be more specific? I'm all for hearing the pros and cons on these things but you don't really say anything at all about Guild Wars 2. What were some of the things you liked? What were some of the things you disliked?

Hands-on time with the game is probably more than you or anyone else in this thread have.

Errr that was the whole cause for disagreement, he didn't say anything at all about his hands on time. I'm sure most of us would love to hear about it given how stringent the NDAs for this game have been up to this point. "I like chicken" is an opinion but generally it helps when people put a little more substance into these things.
