LOTRO and the new MMO : Guild Wars 2

My gaming life continues with LOTRO. Between last post and now I have levelled 3 characters altogether to level 75, bought new quest packs using Turbine Points, and doing raids with kin mate once in a while.

However, since early July, my LOTRO gaming has been sidetracked by the news of the release of a new Guild Wars game : Guild Wars 2. There has been 2 beta weekends before I joined the third one using a beta key given to me by a forum friend. I finally decided to buy the game after a new credit card billing cycle. A number of stress test have been announced and done by Arena Net in order to fine tune the game.

The game will be officially released on 28/8/2012. A pre-purchase account like mine will have 3-days headstart on 25/8/2012 which is just after Hari Raya holiday.

More news after the game release...
