Guild Wars Nightfall is set in Elona, where the storyline follows the Sunspears and their quest to overthrow ultimately, a mad god. However, like Guild Wars, you do not have to follow the storyline if you just want to get into some PvP action, or go out and kill things.
One great plus is the addition of heros--fully customizable characters that are unlocked as the story progresses (or in PvP you can buy the unlock), which are extremely helpful when soloing. Henchmen are nothing compared to heros! They level with you (leveling slower if they are not in combat), and there are heros of all classes. This way, you can either solo yourself with three heros and 4 henchmen, or you can play with a friend, 2 players and 6 heros.
Again, I loved the graphics, the scenery is always stunning. The new characters introduced are the dervish and the paragon--I actually found the paragon not very useful, since it's damage is low and it is used mostly to fortify the team. However, in the latter part of the game, the paragon can be very useful, if used properly.
The dervish is one of my favorite characters, because it is a melee character like the warrior, but makes no use of adrenaline, instead, casts enchantments on itself to boost attributes, and when the enchantment ends, the dervish gains energy.
All in all, very satisfactory!!

Nightfall is worth buying for two reasons:

1. You get heros; which you take to the other Chapters of Guild Wars (Propecies, Factions) to help you on solo questing. The heros are smarter than the henchmen and you can equip them with gear, upgrade their armor, etc.

2. You get a full campaign of PvE content, and it's a good storyline.

These are easily the best MMORpG games available. Sit down WoW cause you don't even come close. The graphics are superior, the storyline is fantastic and from an economic view it's the best. I don't get stung twice by an already rich video game company. Why? Because there is no server subscription fee's, that's right I dont pay to play after I've already bought the game. No monthly game play cards here.
