    There seems to be a market for classic mmorpgs. I wonder why Guild Wars didn’t already receive the Wow Classic treatment.

      I think it’s a much much smaller player base. It was successful, but WoW was a mind blowing success.

      I was under the impression that WoW classic came about because nu-WoW was hemorrhaging players to other, better MMO’s, such as FFXIV and Guild Wars 2.

      Not much need for a GW Classic if GW2 is still going strong.

      It doesn’t really need it, it’s been live and active since its launch. I suppose new content and ongoing updates would be welcome, but I doubt it would make financial sense.

        I think even a relaunch with only the first campaign at the start could revitalize the community. I’d wager there are plenty of people who would want to relive the glory days of Guild Wars 1.
