400 thoughts on “Guild Wars 2 Angry Review”
I’ve never enjoyed an MMO, but Joe, you have convinced me to try this Guild Wars 2 shit out.
Joe, I remember seeing a review from the early days of your channel on Sins of a Solar Empire Entrenchment. I of course bought the game afterwards. However, Stardock has released the latest expansion of SoaSE and it revolutionizes and expands the game play to new heights, you should try it out if you loved the original.
This video made me lol, and I’d like to point out that I had this game before Joe even reviewed it. Keep up the good work Joe!
hello joe you are very natural funny. please take care of my daughter. your fan, ham.
The Game does look good, and it does seem like it earns that 10/10, however at the moment i cannot in good consience purchase this game since the over marketing of this game is part of the reason that NCSoft is shutting down my favorite game, City of Heroes. I’m not saying i won’t buy it, just not right now.
I wish I could buy it,but those who have better enjoy it…
And as allways im laughing my ass out XD
What is the name of the song at the end of the video? <3
Angry Joe, this is an URGENT WARNING!!!!
You need to do a public service announcement on the MASSIVE ACCOUNT HACKING that is going on in GW2. Literally THOUSANDS (upwards of 8,700 confirmed) have been hijacked.
The Hijackers can steal your game WHILE YOU ARE PLAYING!!! ArenaNet did not implement any intermediary step between changing you account email, hitting enter and being hijacked. They send you a shitty email after the fact that says. “Someone -hopefully you!- has requested to change the email address associated with your Guild Wars account.”
And here is the really creepy part. Arena Net is saying it was because of a fan site that got hacked. But there has been more than one extremely tech savvy person that set up specialized email accounts and passwords that have ONLY BEEN GIVEN TO ARENANET that have been hijacked. What that means is that ArenaNet’s own server MUST have been compromised and they are not telling the public.
This needs to be brought to the public’s attention.
Actually, most, if not all of the hijacked accounts came from phishing attempts, in which some hacker in China had managed to steal accounts from various games before, like WoW, or other games, and is then systematically checking Guild Wars 2 servers for matching information. They then send an official looking email, with a link telling you to change your account email, and password, and when you put them in, there goes your account. People have been doing that since MMO’s have been on the rise. You cannot just put this all on Guild Wars. You paid your hard earned money for the game, so you need to learn how to protect your investment.
The game is excellent, hands down. A truly 10/10 game, compared to other shameful MMORPG which require a sub. fee and they are terrible (Aion i.e.)
eh the game was good but i feel as if something is missing
what was missing was probably your ability to play it as intended, and not like WoW or a gear grind system.
it’s not about leveling. it’s about having fun…
Why is that NO reviewer talks about how some skills affect other skills. It’s such a bad ass feature.
Like my ranger can throw fire on the ground and then jump through it to be covered in fire while I’m fighting someone.
Professions can also help each other by combining skills. Everything else in the review was dead on.
Except I usually wait 1 min to get into wvw so it was probably a launch thing. Thanks for the entertainment Joe.
You’re seriously comparing MMO’s by their quests? Quests have no merit in comparisons because they are 5% of the amount of time you’re going to be playing it. We’ll see how long it holds up with its lack of any end game content besides PvP.
Stop sucking ArenaNets sack Joe.
It would be true, if the guild wars 2 leveling system isn’t completely based on questing. This 5% you speak of? It is a LOT larger than that in GW2. Grinding simply doesn’t give as much exp in GW2.
The 5% im talking about is the game you experience whilst leveling. Most of the game you will be playing and enjoying for years to come will be the end game when you’re at max level. That’s the most important part to get right, something has to impel you to keep you there to keep playing.
As I said only time will tell if it holds on to players that are interested in not only PvP but PvE as well. Especially those who want and are used to Raids and the like.
mad wow player ? GW 2 is awesome if it can hold on we will see .
No not mad just weary. Few games I was excited for over the past 2 years and they were awesome while I was leveling up heading on my way to max level. Even for a bit after I reached max level I was having fun. Until the lull of no end game content settled in.
Hopefully GW2 has some engaging end game stuff that the devs will put in on a timely matter. As they already said there’s nothing like raids or the sort, so I’m just curious as to what the “meat and potatoes” of end game could be.
Not only is the first guild wars a amazing game already better than wow but when guild wars 2 adds expansion that’s when the real amount of players well hop on board, for them each DLC is a whole new campaign with almost twice the amount of game play replay-ability, he should have included this information in his review but im telling you guys now if you think the game is not worth the buy wait till they make the expansions because your mind well be blown! In Guild wars nightfall, Factions, and Eye Of The North made the game 10x better so be on the lookout when these gaming geniuses come out with there expansions for this already massively immersible game!
Congratulations on a very successful review! Keep it up! Your reviews are funny, thorough, and ultimately satisfying to watch. I always look for your opinion before any other reviewer out there!
From the image I was actually expecting Joe not to like the game. This looks way better than I ever thought it would, so I might have to check it out in the future. No monthly fee really makes it seem like a no brainer purchase
Lol, that guy planking in the background… Great review though.
Since your Skyrim review I have been extremely skeptical about thine opinions, but in this case I must agree. The game is great for an MMO, it is fast paced and maybe I just liked it for its single player approach.
And a 10/10 in comparison with other MMO is correct.
You have redeemed yourself.
HI There Joe coud you tell me what is the server world etc. where you play cuz i’m going to have the game in november this year and i woud like to play with you.
Peace
While the waiting queues for WvW are long, it also is extremely server and time dependent. Angry Joe is literally on the premier WvW server, and as such the queue is much longer than servers with a lower population. From personal experience (on Jade Quarry, which was regrettably being stomped in his video) the wait time for WvW could be anywhere from immediate on the borderland maps and 30 minutes for the Eternal Battleground map at down times, to around 2 hours for borderland maps and 4-5 hours for the Eternal Battleground map during the busy times. (and we are one of the other large WvW servers).
Take this into consideration when choosing a server to join,
As stated in other comments: mounts, especially for WvW, would both break immersion and go against the core precept of WvW. The developers want it to take an amount of time to reach the battlefield; because much like in real war, reinforcements must take a while to get to the fighting. Adding something to get to the fight faster would mean that battles would end up quickly as both sides having everyone there, which would destroy much of the strategy in the game. It would be harder to sneak through and take supply camps without being spotted and taken out. This means that actually operating in WvW successfully as a server as it is now will require both communication and planing.
rumors have to be the whole story or either true or false? Rumors can coantin bits and pieces of both. To use your example of the Dwarven Kingdom and the Imprisoned Demon you could use a lot of rumors and hints sprinkled throughout NPC dialogue as well as traditional quests to convey the truth.Maybe NPCs in Joe’s Bar have heard that there were already caverns in the mountains before the Dwarves arrived. Or that they’ve heard people talk about feeling watched when they are in the mountain. Maybe the Dwarves themselves talk about how they have terrible violent nightmares when they are at home, but not when they are away from the mountain.Things like that help convey a sense of foreboding and atmosphere that players (who care about that sort of thing) might think about when they are in the zone/region/area. But, without going all out and just giving the entire story away. Or misleading them with a totally false rumor or statement.As for writing stories for MMOs, I have found that I write best when I have an overall story for the zone and then break it down into pieces. Typically as I create/plan the quest hubs and what-not the smaller stories pop up and I can find ways of tying them into the larger story. And of course, with the larger story I work to find ways to tie it into the even greater story. Or at the very least create hooks for future links to the greater story(ies).Anyway, my two cents on it all. Love your blog, keep it up.
This is the first angry review I ever watched and I can tell as a gamer and a designer myself that is the best video review I’ve seen so far. I wasn’t sure if I’d buy GW2 because other reviews were not complete and I didn’t get the whole picture. Thank to you I made up my mind and I will get this as soon as I can. Nice work man, I’ll follow you from now on.
Cheers from Italy!
Word! Exactly my thoughts! Thanks a lot for that great pice of work
Damn Joe i was gonna skip Guild Wars 2 because i just have too many great games right now… but this review 100 percent sold me.
You overated the game not by far but it doesnt deserve 10/10. You didnt even touch its flaws. Its either flame legion, sons of svanir, bandits or the risen (especialy risen) throught the entire game (i dont mean literally but still its pretty much these 4). Story is not good in a way that everything is left on a clifhanger and you just jump in a new story chain without real conclusion. Tybalt dies in a cheesy way and traherne is just boring and not as good as Tybalt. The “epic” Zhaitan fight was dissapointing. The pve and questing is an improvement but the boss tactics are pew pew and watch for the thing so it doesnt get you. world dragon bosses are epic for the first two times later on not so much due to standard mmo mechanics we see in all mmos. Questng is an improvement but Colins “Hey i swung a sword again” quote as much as he didnt want people to say that its still there. The questing is still collect 10 bear asses but it doesnt tell you you have to collect 10 bear asses and you get 2 more quest inside that one hear to complete but its stil the same. 9/10 for gw2 i still find it the best yet but it doesnt beat wow or tor one a some points. It should have been a p2p game so the devs would focus even more.
And it is YOUR opinion among a lot of other, and other that think different.
I got a 7 years WoW player in my guild in GW2 that says he is sorry he didn’t ever played GW1 and that GW2 is by far better than WoW…
So, opinions opinions opinions…
Great review Joe!! Thank you very much!
P.S This game does worth the money that’s why it got 10/10
Hilarious review, and he’s right about so many things! This is one of the best MMO’s I’ve ever played and I’ve played quite a few. I agree with Joe, this hopefully marks the last time I’ll be paying a damn dime for BS subscriptions.
See you all in game!
So, somebody deleted negative posts about GW2 that where on here before..
Just wow…
Hope it arrives on PS3 soon.
OMG, Guild Wars first has no subscription too… So this is no dicover…
Angry Joe is not a credible source for review of a PC MMO. Watch the video, it refutes angry joes review of GW2 completely.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2f4qwXW73ko
GW2 is an embarrassment to the MMO scene.
GW2 is NOT a revolution. Heart quests are the same thing as traditional quest hubs. Kill centaurs, burn tents, kill centaur leader. The only difference is you see a progress bar instead of a number required. gear from chests, quest rewards, karma vendors, etc.. are all irrelevant because you can just use the trading post to get a full set of the best level appropriate gear for mear silver peices. level is irrelevant because you get scaled to the content anyway.
The game lacks depth and substance at level 80. There is nothing to do in pve once you are 80, and your pvp combat feels lagged because of animation delays. There is no character progression at 80 in pve and none what so ever in pvp. Your achievements lack any thought they are all kill 10 of this or that.
Well, if you and some guy who’s probably also you on youtube says so, it must be true.
lol, totally!
I’ve been playing MMOs for years – liked some, hated some, found many rehashing the basics too much and not trying to innovate. But I love GW2 and often find myself online with my friends commenting about something or other that we really like about the game, as we’re playing. You bump into so many moments where you can’t help but think “awesome”. And that’s my experience of the game (and that of most people playing it, out there).
But hey, if this guy and his friend don’t like it; well, that’s up to them. No great shakes. They just won’t play it. I will. My friends will. And we’ll enjoy it. And that’s what counts in the end.
I am thankful that you put the link early, clicking on it made me realize that you are not even smart enough to understand that normal viewers cant even see private videos, so I didn’t have to read the rest of your post.
This is the feedback people will be giving when most hit max level. Just like SWTOR, just like TERA. Nothing to do at end game when you hit max level. Yeah sure you can say all this stuff about questing and zones and blah blah, but is it going to hold your attention after none of that matters? Hopefully in the coming months they don’t let down.
Imo people who want challenging PvE will be let down and will leave.
This game sounds like a winner, but I probably don’t have the computer power for it. Mine’s on its way out.
The game scales surprisingly well. It’s only direct x 9, older systems should be able to run it.
my only complaint so far has been que times and harder enemies just one shotting people with little to no warning. Fire elemental in asura zone is a prime example of kind of annoyance can run into. That said i agree with what joe says… nothing in the game that cant be fixed, and most of issues are slated to be fixed.
also… i’m kind of upset that WvWvW and WvW are effected by gear and level discrepancies something that joe didnt mention and i think needs mentioning.
Are two kinds of pvp in GW2 standard and World vs types. The standard levels you to 80, gives you every skill and top gear basically it is how you design your class that matters. While World vs just upscales you you to 80, but gear and level will effect it meaning… if a lvl 80 runs accross a level 10 that 80 will totally annihilate that level 10 i am REALLY upset that the standard system was not applied to World Vs because frankly makes me not want to touch World vs mode till i am max level.
yeah but wpvp is more like an end game content i see it as a way to reward those who worked hard to get 80.
Mmh… I’m not an MMO fan, but I’m sorely tempted to try this one. Well, Joe has never led me astray with his recommendations. Time to start saving for a new computer.
We got a legendary sandbox (Red Dead Redemption), a legendary RPG (Skyrim) and now a legendary MMO. If the world really ends in 2012, we’ll at least enjoy some great games before the end.
Bah. RDR is far from legendary! Its a boring empty game with an overblown & cleiched story, onesided characters & a COMPLETLY EMPTY play field. I dont want to hunt. I don twant to replay the same lame dungions & I most certenly dont want to sit through the ohh so super serious custsenes while I roll my eyes in desgust at the rehashed & totally phoned in lines.
Rockestar is the actavison of sandbox games. Every one they make is the same boring garbage they have done before just with prittier graphics. GTA 5 will suck all the life out of us just like GTA 4 did.
I guess we didn’t play the same RDR, I thought it was a great game, had a great story and the “phoned in” lines were every bit as good as a top notch movie would created. Jaded much?
never interested in MMO’s, mostly due to monthly fees, till this giant came along. BUY IT! Worth every friggin cent.
Also Joe, you think you could review the War Of The Roses when it comes out in 2 weeks?
watched this yesterday…got it today….awesome
just wow , I have always been interested in the first guildwars when i heard it didn’t require monthly fees , but in general i’ve never been a fan of MMO’s even though i am mostly a PC gamer.
for starters the subscription fee alone always had me running …. 15 bucks a month OUCHers. seriously do the math 15 bucks x 12 months. that’s 180 bucks a year! for 180 bucks i could buy a new video card hell buy a new console even , or buy new set of stings for all 4 of my bass guitars (plus an extra set of strings) , or buy 4-5 other games at 30 bucks each on sale at steam. the list of what i could do with 180 bucks and what I’d rather DO than buy a WoW clone mmo for a year is endless. I just always felt that subscription mmos were the biggest scam in gaming history. Then came Free mmo’s … at first i tired to get into many of these when they first poped up around 2005 but at that time most F2P MMO’s seemed cheap and “clonish” of the subscription mmo’s in fact many newer f2p mmo’s still feel this way. its only been real reccently that i’ve found a few free mmo’s i like and most those don’t do the standard WoW format of RPG. I got in to APB for a while till i got tired of being fragged by cheaters (that game as much fun as it is really needs better cheat blocking). then i got into Star trek online , while being a bit more like WoW than others , it does ahve good ship to ship combat and i like the fact i trade dilitium for real money that can be used in the game store. but i’m getting off on a tangent. point is JOe’s review of this really has my interest perked up. However , being the ever broke student i am these days (game design major actually), i have to pick and choose and right now my PC is really overdue for a cpu upgrade. which i will need to run MWO.
speaking of which when mechwarrior online goes open to the public you think you could review it joe , it being the Grandaddy of big robot games i think it deserves a look by joe , so far the beta is looking awsome from the video’s and screen shots posted at the MWO website. It’s set to release to the public soon and it’s free to play , but NOT an RPG , it’s strait old school mechwarrior action. maybe it’ll also help you wash that bad taste out of your mouth you got from steel battalion -kinect on the 360 , Joe. assuming piranha doesnt screw it up.
wow sux, it has no story, guilds could be better, leveling could be better, items, balancing, every other aspect could be better and should be due to the outrages $15 dollars a month. guild wars 2 really is thinking out side the wow box. It’s better in every way sept for the no one on one trading. How are they doing this with out a fee? Or maybe a better question is why is WOW charging a fee?
As they say, there’s a sucker born every day.
I do agree about the WvW queue being too long and I also think dungeons need a bit of fine tuning. Some of the content is a bit crazy but we don’t want it being a faceroll either. Rewards from dungeons needs a bit fine tuning as well.
Mount is World vs. World? No. I do not agree with you on that one. Mounts do not belong in Guild Wars 2 at all. Takes away the sense of scale in the world. Also everyone would ride around on mounts all the time. It would be immersion-breaking. Far more epic to run on foot in the huge battlefield. Use your speed boost skills.
No trading system. Well thats just incorrect.
@ yaswanth
i agree… i think joe is spoiled
i like all on foot too!
Mounts wouldn’t just break immersion it would break the game. Imagine all the people you’re killing at a point you’re trying to cap just riding back in a quarter of the time.
I am waiting for your reviews on assassins creed series,uncharted series.
AngryJoe why do you say there is no trading system? The Trading Post is the trading system. It works so well, that there is no reason for direct player to player trade. Also it eliminates most of the amount of “WTS [insert random item]” in the chat. The alternative is far more annoying and immersion-breaking if you ask me. I must say I really hate how the trade chat in WoW is always cluttered in peoples effort to sell stuff. The trading system in Guild Wars 2 is probably the most well executed to date imho.
not really. Someone people, in particular like me prefer face to face trades. What the hell? I can bargain much better deals where both parties are happy than working with pure monopoly of the Trading Post? It is also better for your guildies and friends or particulary people you got aquainted with could give you favors on certain items traded such as incentives and discounts.
You do have the option to mail to someone on COD. That’s not a bad trade method in most cases.
it is good game but not awesome, just one more fantasy mmo on market,WAR is better,TSW is better…
Another pro for the game. Free home server changes. All it does is keep you out of WvW for a week or so.
Oh yea, you can also group with anyone across any server for PvE, and guild membership is cross server (though guild perks are unique to each server).
how did people react to the douche knight who was dancing while a Giant Undead Dragon was attacking them? lol.
Despite your best effort the review only scratches the surface of this massive game. But I think people will see enough anyway to know that this is a wise purchase for any fan of MMOs. I too would rate it 10/10 because despite its flaws, most of them will be gone in mere months or sooner. They are already working full shifts to resolve every newly discovered bugs in quests or NPC code.
If you ever liked an MMO; this is a no brainer MUST HAVE GAME. It’s the long overdue successor to the tired old WoW that players like myself have been waiting years for. It adds most of the things we’ve been wanting in MMOs for years but no one, including Blizzard, would give it to us. Questing is actually fun again and encourages random teamwork rather than the exact opposite in what is suppose to be a “multiplayer”. They hit pretty much every nail on the head when it comes to leveling a new character, crafting, questing, and PvP. This game is one huge pile of long desired innovation. It’s not just another clone of a boring tired old formula. This is an entirely new standard and this is what every MMO from now on will be compared to. Soon no one will GaF about Warcraft anymore except maybe for its endgame raiding.
This game also has a lot of fun for solo players, so if you ever liked games like Dragon Age Origins; you won’t feel left in the dust. There are no “group only” quests like WoW once had, and the story quests can be played out pretty much like a singleplayer game with you as a rising hero. There are 5 different racial backgrounds with multiple paths per race and then 3 different factions to join later on that all have different paths. Simply put, this is an MMO that can be played any way YOU want to play it. Or you could play it every way; do the solo quests, do all the huge player events, do the PvP, it’s all great. This game makes you feel like a kid in a candy store all over again and you’ll have trouble deciding where to go or what to do. The leveling is pure gold and the PvP is top notch as well.
The amount of value you’re getting for 60$ here is out of this world.
I’ll admit, Angry Joe hit the nail on the head with WoW. It’s become a company who keeps losing players because they released an expansion that could practically be finished in months and then they tried to keep the money rate up by releasing more merchandise than Kiss rather than try to fix what they had broken. The difficulty. What kept me playing when I began in 2006 was that I couldn’t solo everything, that I had to group up with other people to reach level 60, then 70, and then 80, which formed bonds of friendships and founded great guilds.
I have no problem admitting I’m only still playing because of the friends I’ve made through the game and I don’t have much faith that Blizzard will redeem themselves with MoP. Again, my friends will probably still be all that keeps me playing, because they’re great people and not all of them can afford switching to other MMOs.
That’s the beauty of Guild War 2 Trolldrool, it’s a free to play game. No more monthly subscription. So they would save money by switching to Guild Wars 2. And trust me, after being a WoW head for six years, it’s SO worth it.
I already gave Blizzard one last chance with Cataclysm. But yet again I saw an expansion that did pretty much nothing to innovate or improve the game’s tired old formulas. All they did is change what the quests do and what the item rewards are. They did NOTHING for the actual obsolete mechanics. Simply put, it’s the same thing with a different paint job and better item rewards; that’s it. I wanted questing like what GW2 now has; an overhaul of the old mechanics to be replaced with an entirely new standard that is actually FUN. But Blizzard doesn’t care about any of that; they just care about taking the least minimum effort path and then taking your 15$/month as long as they can.(That’s also why they have lockout timers, forcing you to wait week after week to access content so you will inevitably pay them more fees)
I also wanted PvP maps like the old Alterac Valley, which Blizzard shamefully gutted and to this day still refuse to return it to its former glory. I bet they will soon though after GW2 starts to steal subs. Too little to late though. Go ahead and fix it now, I’m done waiting. I’ve moved. You didn’t care about your playerbase, at all, while they were there, don’t pretend to care after they all move.
Anyone that buys MoP is a sucker.
You do realize that is their business plan.
You staying because of friends is what Blizzard is counting on
what server are you guys on ?
Drain.8765 at Darkhaven.
Very nice review Joe!Im ready to join Guilt Wars 2 now!Whould you think a good idea to re-review some older mmos that are now free and have improved over the passing of time such as Star Trek, or DC Univerce online? It would be really helpfull to new players I think.I would really like to see that.
I’m guessing this is an older review, even though it’s post date is 6th Sep. Also, not sure if someone else has pointed these things out, but here they are:
- trading is available via the Trading Post. It’s just down for maintenance sometimes
- there are 25 dungeons, not 8
- the ability to trade gems for gold and vice versa has been available since the game launched
What he means is the trading between players, not the trading post.
Precisely. It’s not the trading post that is lacking it’s the player x player trade that’s lacking. I want to trade with a friend directly, I can’t I have to put it on the trading Post and hope he can get it before anyone else, that’s the annoying feature Joe mention in the review. Hope they fix it in a sooner patch.
Joe, I like your show and all, But do you realize that all these things and much more, you are claiming are revolutionary about guild wars 2 were done by Eve Online, and much better since 2003, right?
like, all players on one server, so 50,000 people playing the same game on the same server at the same time, with no lag unless you are like in a 2000 x 2000 battle? No queues.
No grinding, you pay a sub fee, but you can pay for your sub with in game currency. You aren’t tied to a class system, the ship you are flying at the time defines your class, all the ships are modular. Completely player driven economy that is/was studied by economics students in universities, as it is that close to real life.
All this stuff has been done before, I have no gripe with GW2, but I believe credit where credit is due.
Not really. Eve PvE is terrible. It is bad. It is horrible.
Also Eve gameplay is entirely click and watching a bar fill up for your weapons to fire (with micro to make sure you efficiently fire everything and such)
But it is not at all comparable.
In any case, Joe, you are gonna want to switch servers for a better queue. Henge of Denravi is dominated by a group called the titan Alliance, which is a massive organization of guilds that will queue up immediately at reset and maintain constant presence in WvW all day long. Which means unless you do the same, between them and random players (with an increasing amount to arrive to ride TA coattails) the queue times are probably the worst on any server. Only Jade Quarry might match them, and certainly not immediately at reset (yet, JQ is trying to self organize now to fight Henge). So you want to WvW more with the entire army, you’re gonna have to switch servers. Now you probably won’t be smearing opponents across the floor like on Henge (cept us Jade Quarriers are putting up a fight now when Henge isn’t allowed to have an hour to themselves to cap everything)
Also TA are horrible exploiters from what evidence I’ve gotten.
Also, not all of us want to fly a ship in outer space. Eve could be the best MMO ever and I’d still likely ever touch the thing. I like to swing swords or shoot bows, not sit in a ship firing space lasers. I was never a Star Trek fan and don’t care for any of that stuff. The only futuristic stuff I really like is MechWarrior, which is finally getting a new game called MechWarrior Online.
Obviously Eve pve is terrible, if you want pve why are you playing an MMO? All your doing is playing a single player game with multiplayer elements. The pve might be terrible, but the PVP is better than any game ever made by a long, long way.
LOL.
I will admit that EVE online great MMO, but it is nothing compared to Guild Wars 2. The problem it is point and click and not anything like much loved space simulator combat. In fact there is even better space combat FPS (may be called MMO, but not really) the game called Allegiance.
The only thing I find epic about EVE though is it’s massive drama on the level of All My Children series for senior sitizens.
Like the backstabbing and particually insane story of one guy who made “the bank” in EVE Online and actually convinced people into his EVE Online Ponzi scheme. After gaining huge amount of money, he told everyone to “fuck off” with youtube video, bought the most expensive battle cruiser at that time, put huge bounty on himself, and happily listed in space towards sunset.
Also not to mention developers of the game playing favorites to specific corporations they was members of and when Whistleblower ranted out on them, he got banned.
Dam it Joe! this is another 60$ I have to spend. I was happily ignorant GW2, but now…
Ah well, I was looking to get a new game soon and every game you have given a 10/10, or even 9/10, has been awesome so at least I can be sure it’s a good one.
No fucking subscription fees? Let me tell you… The only reason why I didn’t buy this game already was because I thought it would be another pay to play game. This video was very much worth my time.
Hey Joe, I was going to buy this game anyways, but the fact that you love this game THAT much made me very happy!
May I ask what server the Angry Army is on so that I can join once I get the game?
I don’t suggest his realm because he says it is FULL and has VERY LONG WvWvW queue timers. I’d love to play with Joe as much as anyone else but I’d rather not be on his overloaded realm. Mine is much smaller and doesn’t have a several hour long queue line waiting to enter WvWvW maps.
That’s the only annoying part in being in Henge of Denravi
