Two weeks to go until the April 28 release of Guild Wars: Factions.

I spent way too many hours with Guild Wars over the past year and can't wait for the new role playing content and 12v12 PvP arenas.

For those who missed it, GW is a MMO in the vein of a Phantasy Star Online in that you form small parties in towns and head out into fantasy-themed instanced environments. There is no player killing except for in PvP arenas and there is no lasting penalty for death. Drops are random and assigned to individuals, so there is no loot stealing.

Factions is a stand-alone followup to GW. You do not need GW to play, so it's not too late to jump in. If you have both games, however, your characters can travel between the two continents.

Anyone else excited about chapter 2?
