I've been playing this game since 2018 and been playing just about every day. The best part is, when I decide to take a week off or a month off or a day off, I'm not suddenly behind when I decide to hop back in. Worst case scenario, I missed out on some great sale or a new cool skin they put in. I love how casual the game is, I love that it doesn't hold your hand and tell you what you have to do, it just suggests you do things.

I've read wiki pages for so many things I probably have a pve content mini-encyclopedia in my head but at least there's an in-game command to /wiki whatever thing you're trying to figure out. (Example: /wiki Not So Secret) It just opens your browser to the wiki page searching the thing you entered.

Oh and I will say, as I came to it off Blade and Soul, I very highly recommend the "Toggle Action Camera" setting in the Control Options tab of the options menu. Just set a keybind for it and turn it on and try it out. You can always click the keybind again to turn it off. It makes your mouse your camera without any click drag and your Left Mouse Button (LMB) function as your 1 skill button. Note: please go through all your settings or watch a youtube video about gw2 settings, you can customize the game to be played in whatever way is most comfortable for you so just take the time to do that immediately.

I set up my steam account as a secondary account and plan to build it up over time and maybe support my main account with money and materials I guess. I know plenty of other players do that but this is my first time trying it out.

Game on folks and give this one a shot, it's got content for all sorts of play-styles and no pressure to do any particular game-mode. I know folks that only play world-vs-world or only player-vs-player because that's what they love. Most importantly, the core start of the game is free so all you lose is some time if you try it out and don't like it.

edit; we're nearing the end of 2024 and I'm still enjoying poppin in to play.
