Finished AC story mode with guildies. SO HARD yet so amazingly awesome
Mid-40s, and loving warrior still
Leveling with Sallennia a little on my engineer. Had a blast going through the Sylvari starting area with her.

Ask An Asuran

Has there been a significant loss of GW1 players?

From my brief 3 hour observation along with talking to players in chat (who chose to remain civil) it seems as though aside from the HUGE bump in august for wayfarer’s reverie the population hasn’t changed much. A lot of non-adopters can rattle off a laundry list of the reasons they haven’t switched. Most of which are related to equipment and the related costs of moving over. Many of them, because their PC is old haven’t even seen gameplay. Some players even told me repeatedly that gw2 is just a fad and with gameplay that poor you’ll be back to gw1 in a month.
