You bring up an interesting point. Games have slowly been starting to drift away from classes and doing their own thing. A prime example would be the popular Fable and Fable 2. Both use classless systems where you can customize what you do. Then again a game like Borderlands went ahead with character classes. Meaning the character you pick is the class you have to become. Kind of like Diablo where the only female character was the rogue.

I think players are starting to want customization over everything else though. Which is why GW 2 is so appealing. The only problem is the lack of plots and stories to satisfy those people that would want to utilize such a great coded system but not just for killing other players.

Do you think we're seeing the decline of the traditional "class" ?
