Are you really ready to play? My fiance and I are gamers. He is more hardcore than I. I find recent games rather boring on most counts. But I will venture into Guild Wars 2. The problem with games in my view is they are too generic and no one wants to stand out of the main stream and take chances. I mean I love beautiful people. I am stricten that most games cater to the men and not us ladies that do in fact play MMOs and other games. I usually run around on a female character because most male characters in any game are just horrid to look at. Since I am playing that character I have to look at it alot. Another thing is just the main stream games out there that are just about violence (And I am not talking MMOs). Your character runs around and just kills mobs of people (suppose villians and/or bad guys) and just never have set scars, need medical attention, or anything that would enchance the game play. I mean how cool would it be in an MMO to be a hero and go out and conquer..but recieve damage/scars/wounds that you had to fix..Say pay or rest or what not. My guild wars characters fight tons of mobs (and will in Guild Wars 2) and still come out looking brand spanking new..XD So I made a character that I would absolutely play in a game..scars and all.
