I played WoW for sixteen years. Finally had enough of the subscription grind, the associated FOMO, and the constant resetting of all gear progressing with each expansion. Took a year off of MMOs and then picked up GW2.
Comment on Guild Wars 2 in 2025 is a MASTERPIECE

I tried to get into it but I’m a Vanilla and TBC WoW simp and I couldn’t adjust to the fact that GW2 is different than WoW.

The gear and stat reset in elder scrolls online made me quit that game. I struggled to figure my best set up and then to have it reset was just too much. I did not know WoW did that. I was considering picking it back up but definitely not.

Every time there’s an expansion in WoW, everything you did prior to it, is mostly obsolete…

I like WoW, and I like GW2, and I especially like that GW2 is different from WoW.
I really hope you’ve been enjoying WoW classic! I personally didn’t have the patience to go back through everything in vanilla and TBC for a second time, but the nostalgia hit me hard. I won’t knock modern WoW, but something about playing during the TBC/WotLK era just hit different.
Anyway, GW2 is my jam now, but I’m glad that we have both.
