  1. Fact is that GW2 is the one competing non-wow MMO that got out of favour the most due to lack of content. Check google trends, FF14 overtook and overtakes all the time with huge spikes during expansions. They already have 3 expansions although the reboot launched a year later. GW2 never delivered unfortunately. I think they fucked up with the release of HoT when they hyped too much and delivered too few. You don't do that, you need additional stuff to do AT START without a 9 month content drought. Well, they are now where they deserved. It's a shame, a lot of wasted talent.

  2. Not sure if the game can be 'saved'. Expansion would be nice, but I lost interest. Haven't even finished the first episode of icebrood and all my friends I know in real life quit playing. I think the game is in a pretty dire state, we just don't have any official stats.

     

    The only thing I can imagine is some nostalgia thing like Cantha with a full fledged expansion which means: new races and professions (classes - or at least subclasses), 5-10 new maps, new raids and fractals/dungeons, new crafting discipline etc. You know the thing you expect from a AAA MMO. This never happened, not with HoT or PoF and least of all with Iceberg (er sorry Icebrood) Saga.

  3. Something I noticed is that most players who just say this mode is shite, are not good at PvP, you even admit it. But what you don't do is tell us _what_ exactly is bad. There are a lot of feedback threads, but if you want your voice heard then tell us/the devs what you have to say.

  4. The design of he GW2 minions is indeed quite horrible. I don't mind the wurm and the devourer or the shadow thingy. But the rest is not really nice. Espeically the flesh golem looks shite. Compare it to the GW1 version. They looked much better. Also they didn't add any new ones which I think is pretty weak.

  5. G600 is still the best MMO mouse out there. I had a Naga and this one was shite quality and overpriced. It broke after like 2 weeks. Ridiculous! Anyway, the G600 is out of production - at least in Europe. No idea why Logitech does no MMO mouse anymore. Probably the market is just too little. That said, it's great to have so many shortcuts on your thumb. I could never play again without. Especially since I use fast casting and snapping on target for AoE, so much better and faster. And definitely a must if you do higher tier content like Fractals T4 or raids.

  6. The game is going down the drain. Never saw so few people on a new map and people aren't really content it seems. Compare it to some other games on the market which release constantly new xpacks and raids/dungeons. And GW2 just lacks sooooo much. It's really the only MMO I played (note it: I) with such thin content. I myself am completely unmotivated to play, it just bores the hell out of me. I feel really sorry as the GW universe was one of my most beloved ones and I loved the old games up until PoF. Now, I think there's nothing left without expansion and with such thin content overall.

    I don't know. I used to have travel sickness. Especially in airplanes and also in cars on the backseat when I was little. And I completely lost it when I was an adolescent or young adult.

  8. It still looks good, you notice its age though. Especially the old areas didn't age too well, depending on the map. Especially on mounts like griffon or skyscale you notice a strange effect in the old map: the maps look like a diorama: a small version of what should be, they look out of proportion, just check the size of Divinity's Reach on map and compare it while looking at it. It's completely wrong. Also the mountains are super small. You'll notice it if you are on a Skyscale.

     

    New maps are far more detailed, especially the textures of mountains look still astonishingly well for this old engine.

     

    I think what most people complain isn't the 'outdated' graphics, but the shitty performance. I run 16GB RAM, an SSD and a GTX 1660 and I still can't reach 60 FPS in some maps, especially with other ppl around.
