Guild Wars is one of the leading MMORPG titles on the market, and unlike many of its competitors, is completely free to pay after you have bought the game software itself. But this is not the only reason for its ever growing popularity. It is a vast and highly detailed environment, filled with all kinds of monsters to kill, quests to complete and treasure to collect.

After creating your first character, you will often have a far slower rate of leveling up, and this is expected, as it will take a while until you get used to the games mechanics.
