I mentioned before how I’ve come to love the ‘Hero’ archetype of character in games recently, well I think I’ve narrowed it down even further, I think I’ve come to love being a Berserker/Barbarian character, and if those aren’t available, general warriors. I think as I get older I’m starting to enjoy playstyles that are simpler to execute, so taking a big hammer and smashing people works well in my unga bunga brain that I can generally switch off and just enjoy the gameplay of smashing things. It’s easier on the hands too, less dextrous actions, not as much reaction time needed, soon I’ll be an old man and I won’t be able to even think of playing agile thieves or mages that need to constantly keep out of the fray, so getting into heavy armor and smashing away may be my best course of action. This is of course completely different from my other love, Necromancy, but who said a guy can’t enjoy opposites. Either way, for now, I think I’ll play a new character in Guild Wars 2 and just focus on hitting things with a big hammer, that sounds like fun.
Do you enjoy playing as a warrior/melee character? if so which are some of your favourites? Let us know in the comments! That’s all for now, and as always. It’s not just a game, It’s a Life.
