my ass mate... I already played ESO and I can say without a doubt in my mind that guild wars 2 is more demanding! just to make a quick example, I cant play gw2 maxed out settings with my brand new computer with a GTX 760 graphic card... on the other hand even my 6 year old laptop can play ESO maxed out so... my ass mate ;)

More demanding,visually, and badly coded are fairly different reasons for hardware to perform the way it does.
While i havent played ESO i have played Guild Wars 2 a lot and i can say it performs badly because it's an MMORPG that cant handle the "Massive" part real well.
If you're off in a map alone or in small groups,it runs great.
That's due to the engine being a rehash of the same engine they used in Guild Wars 1 which had vastly smaller amounts of people on the screen at any given time.

Will ESO have more demanding visuals? Its probable since the game is much newer. Will it perform better than Gw2 in its most demanding moments? I hope so.
