Guild Wars 2005

About this game

Released in 2005, this online role playing game has a cooperative role playing portion and a competitive Player versus Player portion. In PvP, players can use their cooperative characters or PvP-only characters who start at maximum level and have unlocked content through their account. A player creates a 3D avatar from up to ten professions and can pick hair style, face, skin tone, height and a name. The view is mostly third person with an optional first-person view. Avatars walk and run, chat, fight, pick up objects and interact with special ones, and unlocking armor and weapons changes the avatar's look. The player also decides whether the avatar starts in the player versus environment portion or in PvP. A game that offers both cooperative play and PvP is still a place to start together.
