I played WoW a bit after its initial release through the first couple xpacs. Getting the MMO itch again, but I know the WoW I grew up with doesn't really exist anymore, so now I'm pretty out of touch.

For those of you playing / recently played an MMO, which one? How's the community? How's the lore? Gameplay in pve/pvp/rvr?

Currently I try to decide between New World and Guild Wars 2. Can't play both but not sure which to pick ....

If you're mainly interested in PVP or resource gathering, New World.

If you want better PVE, more interesting storylines and better more varied world design, Guild Wars 2.

Personally, I quit New World as a mainly PVE player after playing for around 30 hours. It was just too mind-numbing killing the same 5 mob types over and over even after getting to a new area. Even reading all the quest texts, I never got very interested in the world or (barely existant) storyline.

New World was such a huge letdown for me. Low level mobs respawning so fast you can't even clear an area long enough to loot, empty world outside of endgame areas. etc.
