Yes it will. You can use AI chars to play with you if you don't want to group up.

Every class can be picked. so if you have a dungeon or something that needs 5 you choose 4 NPCS to do it with you ( you pick the class)

it was like that in GW1 as well..

people need to research a bit more.. GW was awesome, GW 2 will be too


What are you talking about?

Will there be henchmen or heroes?

No, there will be no henchmen or heroes. The companion system mentioned in early interviews about Guild Wars 2 was scrapped.


But dungeons and the competitive 5v5 pvp arena are the only parts where you actually need to form a group. Rest of the game is very fluid in not actually requiring grouping even if it is stuff you do with other players.

They talked about it but scrapped the companion idea. Since there aren't any straight tank/dps/heals classes all of them can solo. That was one of swtor's biggest strengths and flaws. Sure companions were great for soloing but they really discouraged grouping with others.
