GUILD WARS? WHICH GAME?

I have the trilogy. Just got it today. I'm confused on which game to play. I played the first GW game for a bit and it seemed really hard, the henchmen die a lot. (am i suppose to have friends to do missions?). I then tried factions and it was pretty decent, no tutorial crap required. Nightfall was okay too, but kind of the same with factions. All along, I thought all the games were tied together, but now I find out that the trilogy are three different games. Should I just skip to Nightfall? Which one is the funnest, without having to finish all the other games? What did you guys do, most importantly? I'm a huge GW noob, I don't know anything, and I find the missions and quests to be an utter waste of time. Also, if you make a PvE char, can you still PvP? Or if you want to PvP, you have to make a PvP char. I'm so confused. help!! don't know which game to play!.GUILD WARS? WHICH GAME?
If you're completely new to GW's you should start on Prophecies,it's the training campaign.Very slow and takes longer to level up but gives you time to become accustomed to the map (s) and get a decent skill bar.

Sounds though like you just want to be thrown straight into it, in which case i'd say nightfall.The hero's you get are pretty useful,you can equip them With skills of your choice and control them too.Henchies do die easily,so yeah on missions it's easier to find a group,especially if you're not quite sure how to do the mission.

NF is pretty long but very quick to lvl up, i think Factions is more fun, it's shorter and again quick to lvl.

Yep they're all stand alone campaigns ( the exception is EOTN ) but you can take your chars from one campaign to the others by way of quests in Lions Arch,Ascalon, and Kaining Centre.



To play your chars as PvP,you do need to be lvl 20,although you can make a char just for PvP that will be 20 straight awayGUILD WARS? WHICH GAME?
I think you should do Nightfall or Prophecies first. Oh, and you can still PvP if you have a PvE character, but you have to reach level 20 first. That's the reason there are PvP characters. That way you can verse other people without having to take the time to level your character.

CHIKAN SOUP!!!!!
The quests and missions are the point of the game. If you have no desire to do anything of that, return it to the store or make pvp characters only. You have to do quests and missions to level up eventually. Killing things will get boring really fast. Start with prophecies, it's the most in depth although in my opinion the hardest. Factions and Nightfall both have mini-tutorials to cover the basics covered in the first part of Prophecies. If you choose to use a pve character you'll eventually need to do the missions and quests to progress. It's an awesome game, give it a chance and you might find those quests and missions aren't so bad. They are all tied together eventually. In Prophecies you need to get to Lion's Arch to get to the other games, and Kaineng Center in Factions and to a certain level and take a certain quest in Kamadan to get out of NF.
