yeah i would. GW2 has the most release date content ive seen so far. level caps 80, world is gigantic, lots of stuff to do if your bored. *You cant out level quests, which gives you an incentive to complete them all. The combat systems changed, its not more active. There are 5 races and 8 classes. The classes are very flexible also.
