It was at release but over time it just went fully stupid.. team content sure but no one wants to follow your story so everyone does it solo, but now the bar is so high its gotten ridiculous..

And i'm not kidding about my hands hurting either.. They really do after a few hours dodging red circles.. Man that balthazar fight was horrendous.

I still have no idea where that vendor is.. I'm still battling through living story 3 because its so hard i went on to Pof instead.

I do agree with others the modern stuff really feels out of place but each to their own i guess..Strangely the Asura tech doesn't feel wrong to me no idea why.

That was my first thought as well when i returned.. It used to be one of my favorite maps, now i detest the place.. Its kinda like orr we killed zaitan 7 years ago but its still never gotten cleaned up, all our efforts were for nothing.

This shift also marks the point where the regions of the game world are now effectively locked in Time, so the content is permanently accessible for Players wanting to go back to it. So since Kessex hills was a disaster zone prior to Season 2, it gets to stay a disaster zone.

> But judging by the backlash to Lion's arch, it seems the community doesn't like remodelling projects.

Actually the new lions arch grew on me over time.. The old one i never really liked because i dislike Pirates they just do not appeal.

First game was far far superior than the second for many reasons. The story was more interesting, the mechanics game wide were far more balanced, there was no insane power creep like guildwars 2 and everything was in the game, not in a cash shop.. There were a lot less currencies and grinds and they had bots to help you pass most content.

They also had Cantha.

I played Guildwars for more than 4 years non stop.. I played Guildwars 2 for about 2 and then took a 4 year break.. :)

The list goes on..

Steam Pets for Engineers please with options on skins for them and Ranger pets, thanks.

I want bosses in story missions to be toned down.. After playing living story 2 and half way through 3 i've given up, everything is so hard solo and my hands have been starting to hurt..

Please tone done the CC and red circles for story mission bosses, its just too much.

Its designed that way to sell stuff on the black lion..

Been waiting for that since release.

> People who play alone typically aren't "anti-team play". They're typically not for content like Raids, and it isn't due to team play, but how inconvenient it is to get a group.; as it requires sitting around talking to random people to get one going.The most popular games globally are team oriented games, but getting into a team of randoms is quick and easy for these games.

Most are team play when its forced on them.

Again GW1 started guildwars so your post is moot.. Guildwars 1 charr were far more primal and accurate to charr. Guildwars 2 turned them into some odd fuffy toys.

I mean't both.. I personally am very Antisocial, but yes Asocial are also included.

Is this in living story 4?

Doesn't make any sense what so ever, what did that have to do with my post.. Charr in Guildwars 2 pale compared to Charr from Guildwars 1.

How did you aquire that?

A lot of Antisocial and introverted customers play MMO's as well, i believe Developers forget this when they design team content everywhere.. Its a mistake forcing customers together to complete story parts, and i agree the pvp and raid aspects need team play.. but the rest should not and the rewards should be the same everywhere.

Its dumb.. Longbow is bad enough as it is making it no longer even used as a weapon shows how poor the balancing is in this. Especially as ranger took years to get to even what it is now..

Personally hope Cantha is coming.. I've been waiting for Cantha since Guildwars 1...

Wow i wonder why everyone hates Taimi.. Shes the only well acted character on the team and killing her off would be like ending the whole team because shes their heart.. Now i'm ok with ending the team but not Taimi shes great.

I gotta say i'm totally with you there, they should have made proper elves or kept the Dwarves, cause i detest those salad huggers.. That said isn't eating salad cannibalism.

Thats not how it was explained and swearing is a lot more mature than whining about virtual swearing in a forum..

Just one simple request..

Please tone down the cc on monsters in hot and the living story 2 and then it would be fun to play in those areas..

Thanks.

I hated HoT with a passion it needs a very big overhaul.. and monsters need their CC toned down before i go back there... That said I've completed HoT on my main i wont be doing it again on my alts.. I started Pof and yes its a lot less insane, needs a lot more waypoints though imo..

Although i haven't gotten far in pof. I decided to go back and complete stuff i missed but i'm really starting to regret my decision..

Doesn't like a massive amount of the population hate underwater combat, i highly doubt they'd make a whole addition for underwater. And if they do... I really hope they do an overhaul on underwater combat and its skills as a lot of classes are absolutely terrible playing underwater..

Guildwars 1 charr were the best.. They were how i expected charr to be.

I'm not sure what happened to charr in Guildwars 2.

> Anyone else thrown off by the amount of expletives being used in dialogue during the Bound By Blood release for Icebrood Saga? I understand that the Charr are meant to be portrayed as a warrior race and edgy, but I expect there are better ways to demonstrate this. Some of these expletive comments make them appear less like battle-hardened veterans and more like tantruming children (especially for Charr leadership).

No in my opinion we need more, less babying is actually more interesting.. At least make fantasy writing some what realistic.

I dunno all the modern team is pretty forgettable... Only one i like is Taimi.

The rest are very over acted or really really boring, i'm following season 2 now and i can say holy hell is it bad, between the lackluster characters and the over tooled enemies its not remotely fun to play.. i really hope season 3 and 4 are dramatically better character and mechanics wise..
