Changes... 

I have just come back to Guildwars after being inactive for around 8 months (lol). I went around the different games, Lineage 2 mainly, which i have to say is a cracking game, but it takes too much time to stick at it.

So anyway, logged into GW, noticed changes straight away, just general ones, id seen a few of them when id logged in once or twice in the last few months, mainly the visual presentation of it.

First major one i noticed, although i noticed a long time ago when i popped on for 5 minutes, is the character select button, which i had hoped they'd introduce for a long time when i played before, rather than log out, log back in, to change characters, so thats good.

Second one i only noticed today, and i have to say "OH MY F*****G GOD", is the increased storage vault. That has single handedly given me hope on coming back to the game, since i had several characters full of stuff that needed sorting, and now i have a full 4 page storage vault. I had wished for a long time when i was playing regularly that they would sort out the storage, as it was pitifully small for a 8 character player. I have say, well done NCSOFT.

(All they need to do now is increase the material storage to take 1000 of each material lol)

Of course there are some changes i dont like, most of which happened i played previously (the various nerfs that affected farming, as i was a heavy farmer), but i wont go into them, as we'll just end up with another nerf-hate thread lol.

I have noticed that the drop rates have fallen through the floor, ive seen this mentioned on a few threads, and this does get to me slightly. The other is the drop in prices of upgrades, bearing in mind i had two full character inventories, chocka with upgrades, which now, arent worth as much, but hey ho, you cant have it all lol.

If anyone agrees/disagrees/just wants a chat on this subject, feel free lol, need to talk to some GW players again, get back in the swing of things :)

PS I am also looking for a guild now, i did run my own before, but went inactive, got kicked, but nevermind.
So if anyone wants a veteran GW player, (who is slightly rusty), in their guild gimme a bell (Falcor of Rillanon). I have 6 lvl20 characters, most of which have finished their respective campaigns (Ranger, Monk, Warrior, Necro, Ritualist, Dervish)

RE: Changes... 

Welcome back. There are many more excellent changes other than increased storage. If you say you are a big farmer, you're going to want to check out Hard Mode: some of the best farming there that has ever existed in this game.
