They wanted to do something new, not like everyone else. To create something original from something traditional. Go further where others are at an impasse. And they succeeded, albeit not on the first try.
It's about ArenaNet, the developer of the MMORPG game Guild Wars, which released a decent game in 2005. Only soon the team realized that they had not yet implemented many ideas. But how can this be done if new material is not added to an existing product? Exactly, start developing a new, more interesting and high-quality game.

What are you talking about?
The lands of Tyria are experiencing hard times again. True, the reason for this now was not the constant enmity of the five races, but a more serious evil, which arose, apparently, from their civil strife. Zaitan, the oldest and most immortal dragon, appeared to be his own person, destroyed entire cities, and even lifted the Orr nation that had sunk during the war. This holy kingdom has always been against conflict. But what can you do, Zaitan thought that the army of wandering spirits would significantly strengthen his army of the undead.
He devoted all his strength to the destruction of the five races, so those who gritted their teeth had to combine their efforts to give the enemy a worthy rebuff. And even the fierce “cat-like” Charra overpowered themselves and entered into this alliance.Everyone has his own path

After a rather lengthy process of creating a character, he starts the game from the very first level, which eventually rises to the “80” position. Experience is obtained for almost any action: destroying opponents, participating in various events, completing tasks, participating in trials, visiting dungeons, resurrecting players, etc.
Each next level increases the attributes and health of the character. This is done automatically. But along with this, the player gets 2 points for skills and traits. But this is only from level 11.Upon reaching the 80th anniversary, experience continues to grow, and instead of the level, a learning point is offered. In addition to enhancing character skills, a gift can be used to purchase various items from NPCs.

People - all the time they spend in battles, because of which they have already lost many territories. From all sides they are constantly attacked by enemies. Despite this, their spirit was never broken. And while their main city is safe, this race will exist.
Norn - worship the spirits of the wild. Representatives of this race are werewolves. They live in the mountains, and strength and a quick mind help them survive there. As friends, they are faithful companions, but if they piss them off, they will become eternal enemies.Asuras are the smallest, but also the smartest Tyrian race. They know the answer to any question. Once these masters lived in underground civilization.

In addition to race, in the game you can choose a specific class for your character. There are 8 classes in Guild Wars 2. Builds or sets of skills, skills, traits and equipment each have their own. The class is completely independent of the profession, but having chosen it once, it is no longer possible to change this choice.
And here are the classes themselves: elementalist, ranger, warrior, necromancer, messmer, guard, engineer and thief.
In addition, classes, depending on the type of armor, are divided into three archetypes: soldier, adventurer and scribe.Guild Wars 2: Modes
In the MMO game Guilds War 2, which is currently under review, there are several modes: Player vs. Environment, Player vs Player, and WvWvW.
PvE mode - the player opposes the environment. It is not designed to fight with other participants, but, on the contrary, supports individual or joint passage with them.
PvP mode - here players compete with other players on small maps. There are also several mini-games with elements of this mode.
WvWvW mode is also to some extent PvP, but several hundred players from three worlds (servers) take part in the battles. Battles take place on four maps, with 500 players each. You can leave or enter the server at any time.Guild Wars 2 in Russia
German, English and French - these languages were planned at the time of the release of Guild Wars 2. Localization in Russia was not and still is not provided. It is worth noting that each player, playing on any of the servers, can choose their own language.
