Yeah, I have GW installed on my own desktop computer, on my new laptop and on my dad's computer for when I'm at his place, so I always have access to GW everywhere :P. And no monthly fees! I didn't mention that in my entry, but it's really a big plus (though I actually was willing to pay a monthly fee for WAR if I liked it enough).

I didn't have any real issues with the UI in WAR, though it did feel kind of cluttered because you can use your bazillion of skills at any time. GW's feels cleaner because you're limited in what you can bring (which I think is a big plus, cause it makes for a more strategic approach of the game, especially when you factor in your teammates as well. But with all UIs, it gets easier once you get used to it and know where to find stuff. I know it took me a while to figure out how exactly attribute points worked in GW :P

It's a shame WAR doesn't have trials out yet (as far as I know), because there's a lot of good things about it. Another thing I completely forgot to mention is the Tome of Knowledge, which is a big interactive book that keeps track of everything you've done, everywhere you've been and everyone you've met. It also gives you lore and background information to read--it's absolutely fantastic and GW2 should totally steal it.

Speaking of, we really need more GW2 stuff. Come on, they're bound to have some concept art by now, share it! :P
