Guild Wars questions

How customizable are the characters in GW? I'm just curious since the game has no races what makes characters look different.

Your post count is 1337. Cherish it.

Each class has their own distinctive look and armor outfits.

Regarding each class, you can change their gender, face, hair color, hair style, skin tone and their frame size.

About the same as in WoW.

For those of you that have played WOW and GW, which did you like better and why? SH*T. I'm no longer 1337!

the ability to change your look is horrible. preaty much everyone looks the same. but i came from City of Heroes which is the best character creation out right now.

When the honor system was implemented everyone stopped doing instances and PvE grouping and started raiding TM 24/7. Maybe it has gotten better since blizzard made it to where you dont have to maintain your rank to keep your PvP honor goods you purchased at a certain rank.

Yeah, everyone stopped doing instances. Right, because those honor rewards sure trump that Molten Core gear. It was a bright shiney toy that everyone wanted to play with when it first came out, that's about it though.

Well, more to it than just gear. People wanted to say "look at me, i am high rank!". Pretty soon PvP stopped being about fun and started being about the next rank, the prehonor system PvP servers were more fun to me than the post honor system.

Just like when my FPS clan switched over to a stat server for CS, many of us, including myself, stopped having fun and became slaves to the stats.

what about if you join a PVE server? Isnt there such a thing still?
