Guild Wars

Guild Wars was developed by ArenaSoft and published by NCsoft. It is one of the few large MMORPGs commercially marketed with no monthly fee. An individual could buy the game at your local electronics or big box store and start playing as long as they could provide an internet connection.

Guild Wars has two related campaigns: Factions and Nightfall. Because these two games are called Guild Wars:Factions and Guild Wars: Nightfall, the original game is generally referred to as Guild Wars:Prophecies. Because characters can move freely between the campaigns after reaching a certain point in the game (assuming the player has purchased a copy of any campaign he wishes to explore), Guild Wars is generally used to refer to the overall game, and not to a specific campaign.
