Factions was a tremendous disappointment for me. When people said Factions PvP was on an epic scale, I was expecting something exciting. Instead I found a red and a blue line that does not move beyond harvest temple, and the ownership of towns were decided by how fast u can run from Breakers Hollow to the supply master. Also, the "Befriend the "insert faction here" quest served as a road block for many people, including myself. It completely discouraged me from continuing through the game. The scenery was quite disappointing also. When Anet said Factions was going to be based on an Ancient East Asian theme, I was expecting fancy temples or structures that looked an awful lot like the Forbidden City. Instead the whole place looked like a town made of cardboard box.
I prefer Nightfall over the three chapters. The missions in Nightfall is much more challenging and fun to play. Missions are nolonger simply "kill this kill that and kill some more". NF offers a variety of missions. For example, in Venta Cemetery, it tested your ability to avoid enemy detection. In Grand Court of Sebelkeh, it was a race against the Blasphemies to shutdown the rifts while preventing the Altar of Lyss from being overrun. My personal favorite is Tihark Orchard, a ONE MAN mission. In here, it tests your ability to enjoy a party and have fun! Also, just like Photics: Revisions, Nightfall lets you choose your own path, different choices would lead to different missions and having different heroes.
