Guild Wars: Nightfall Reviewed

Posted December 18th, 2006 by LadySirse

An illuminating dissection of the latest chapter in the MMOG saga

Computer and Video Games has posted a review of Guild Wars latest expansion today. See what they had to say about Nightfall!

n fact, at times Guild Wars: Nightfall is a bit hard to call an MMORPG. It has all of the hallmarks of the genre, but at times it feels all too similar to old-man Diablo II mixed with two-parts EverQuest and three-parts of fantasy-cliché. Playable as a standalone part of the Guild Wars world, Nightfall mimics Factions by bringing two new classes to the table. The god-bothering, scythe-swinging Dervish can enchant himself with all sorts of spiritual prayers and cause ice and earth damage, and the friendly neighbourhood Paragon can tactically assist players on the battlefield with various buffs and health boosts while lobbing spears at people's heads.

Get clicking to find out more of what they had to say about Nightfall!
