I don't agree, I find GW2 very comprehensive and laid back mmo. You can lol solo or just participate in event with others and get same amount of exp as everyone with laid back playstyle. There no fighting over zones if you looking for mission item or something. The game has a lot of pets that follow you. The ones that fight can be accessed by ranger, necromancer and engineer classes. Story bosses are easy, if anyone ever has problems, it's always simple to find someone to help out as everyone is friendly af for majority of time.

You said it, the bosses are easy, if someone helps out, but the wife wants to play solo. And I'm pretty sure the necro pets and engineer golems are not falling into the cute pet category. But I mean, the basic game is free, so she can certainly try. I would say, that the Zhaitan fight might frustrate her though.

No I said bosses are ease. If someone does have problem, other are always available. Everyone I know soloed story without any problem. Yeah I can see how not everyone will. Find fleshy abominations cute, but they're cool lol. Yeah, it's free and pretty welcoming. I play solo and it's my favorite mmorpg ever. Not grindy, play how you like, new content being added, classes variety. You obviously played it, so you know what I mean. Whenever I did have a question in game, everyone was always cool and friendly. Barely see any weirdos in chat too. Unless you're in WvW and PvP, but overall, i got only good memories about it.
