The Guild Wars games sticks out in the mass of MMORPG:s on the PC-market by combining both PvP (Player versus Player) combat and instanced outdoor environments. The gameplay is also focused more on the obtaining and proper usage of skills then on experience and high-level items, including a level cap of 20.
The use of skills is also quite different then in most other games in the genre. Every character gets to choose two character-classes, and gets access to all skills of both. However, these can not all be used at the same time, since a character can only bring a total of 8 skills into combat at any one time. This makes the gameplay very dynamic, and player focus tend to be big on which skills will prove to be the best combination for the specific challenge ahead.
This has resulted in a very active and dynamic meta-game where teams with a well thought through combination of skills on all its character almost always succeeds against a not equally well prepared foe.
ArenaNet supports the fan community by introducing weekend events and special seasonal events, these have included Halloween and Christmas themed festivities. Additionally, ArenaNet often introduces new items to the game which have unique effects on the character.
