This game is great. I don't have nearly as much time to game as I did when I was younger, and this is a game that respects your time. Only have an hour to play? Okay, great, there's plenty to do and plenty of progress that can be had in a hour. And if you have a whole afternoon to play, there's higher end stuff to do too.
This MMORPG feels different .... Besides the pressure of getting mounts to make your life easier in terms of traversing the world of Tyria ..... The rest of the game is pretty chill, you can go at your own pace, it is a game really worth getting into if you don't want your typical MMORPG of endless grinding and be powercrept months later.
