Customer Reviews:
Good for PvP'ers, 2007-12-19 On its own, Factions is a good role-playing and PvP MMORPG. And only in Factions can you create the assassin and ritualist professions.
The plague-infested streets in the beginning of the role-playing game are dull, but the landscapes get much better once you're out of town. The storyline is interesting, but not as good as Prophecies or Nightfall. So when I created my assassin, I played Factions long enough to collect a few good skill combos then took the character to Nightfall.
If you enjoy PvP then you'll get into the alliance battles where teams on opposing sides play territorial games to redraw the battlemap for their guild's chosen faction. Some find it fun, I feel PvP is frustrating. Thus I give the game a fun-factor rating of 3 stars. Overall I give 5 stars for the excellent graphics, character development, skills and role-playing options, which include challenge missions (great fun).
The best part about ANY Guild Wars game is there's no monthly fee...just buy the game. The Guild Wars online store is available in the login user interface, and offers special game upgrade purchases at reasonable prices.
