I had high hopes for my first experience with Guild Wars 2, and I was not disappointed. Although the game is certainly not without problems, the problems are small and easily fixable. The launch date is still a vague 2011 (or "when it's ready"), and yet, with the exception of the few combat and graphical bugs that are to be expected in any demo, the game has the hallmarks of something far into an open beta.
The demo showed Guild Wars 2 is capable of fulfilling the promises it made -- at least, at the start and somewhere in the middle. If the full release can sustain what the demo showed, World of Warcraft may finally have a run for its money.
