    Convincing a friend to play GW2

    Taken from Guild Wars 2 Facebook page:

    --------------------------------------------------------------

    Convincing a friend to try Guild Wars 2? Here are ten reasons PvE players will love GW2:


    • *Because Curtis’ ranch isn’t going to save itself.*
    No, really. If you’re hanging out in Claypool and Cattleman Curtis runs up shouting that bandits will take over his ranch if you don’t help, he’s not kidding. https://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/dynamic-events/


    • *Because this is one of the little dragons.* http://www.flickr.com/photos/arenane...n/photostream/


    • *Because that player isn’t coming to steal your kill, he’s coming to make it more epic.*
    Cross-profession combos are as easy to create as they are are dangerous. No need to stop, strategize, and debate group dynamics–just go with the flow of battle and enjoy playing with everyone around you! https://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/combat/


    • *Because dungeons are waiting to bring the pain, and then do it again in a completely different way.* https://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/dungeons/


    • *Because you don’t have to play through boring stuff to get to the good stuff. We give it to you right out of the gate.* http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OO3nTjwpguE&t=5m11s


    • *Because you can see how the other half… er, fifth… lives.* All racial zones are open to all players right away, so you can join your friends no matter what race they choose to play. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEdr8HHJ-zU


    • *Because everyone loves a big finish.*
    Events in GW2 don’t occur in a vacuum, and a series of dynamic events can explode into a final meta event. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fb...levant_count=1




    • Because the quaggan are just so cute you want to help them. http://www.arena.net/blog/the-mostly-harmless-quaggan


    • *Because it’s so much more than swinging a sword.*
    (Or shooting pistols, or firing a flamethrower.) You can cut a swath through the baddies of Tyria, but there’s so much more. Puzzles, trivia, and all manner of non-combat challenges await you all over the world. Keep your eyes open and pay attention to your surroundings–it’s not just window-dressing! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx4UdIpaCWU


    • Because Destiny’s Edge needs you. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Destiny's_Edge

    That's the best 'why you should play' I've seen so far, thanks. I'm looking forward to seeing how they work Destiny's Edge back together.

    I am really a big fan of dynamic events. I thought this one of the better things in Rift.

    Easy XP and the loot that drops scales with your lvl. So you can be lvl 26 and fighting along side lvl 12's.
