While you can change your home world, there is a limit of one world transfer every seven days per account and a charge of 1,800 gems for each transfer. A world transfer moves all of your existing characters to your new home world. Any subsequent characters you create will also play in this new home world.
When Guild Wars 2 launches, you will also have the option to play with your friends on another world with our free “guesting” feature. With guesting, your characters can play on any world where you have friends—with certain restrictions. For instance, you will not be able to participate in WvW while guesting.

I thought this was coming out in May. My bad, carry on. Seems like poor marketing to be this vocal about a game when it's who knows how far off.

Very disappointing that you cannot play the game without paying $60 first. The one day headstart when you pre-order from amazon is something. I guess if I make the pre-order then cancel it I may get that 1 day free trial out of it but that seems like a lot of trouble to be putting a legit customer through.
I'll stand on the side line and see for myself what this game plays like. Seems like there is smoke billowing up from behind the wall...otherwise why not let people play it risk free?

Its always fun to watch the predominantly ANTI BLIZZARD Blues News crowd rally behind the latest douchebaggy MMO that comes out that is supposed to be the grand savior of a dying genre then later turn against it in scorn.
I give you all about...3 months

Well, not an issue for me personally, but I could see someone having an issue with the "all your existing characters" part. What if someone wanted to have characters in different worlds to play with different people? Most MMOs allow you to do that, so it'd be strange for GW2 to not.
