    I think the differences between those areas isn't time, but culture. Fields of Ruin is a long time battle zone over Ascalon. With hatred that just kindof breed there. Generations of fighting at that spot and feuds (between families and species) just don't change. Lions Arch was built on a diverse group of people. There just wasn't the animosity there.

    Ha ha, yep. Though I think gw2 likes the hourglass look too. Kindof interesting how many of the armors fit into on of the two category. Into the Hartman hips for sure if your selected model has has the smaller chest size. Heavy armor a lot of the time just suddenly justs out to make a wide hip. And a lot of light armor just embraces it. That's really interesting, thanks for link.

    Lol, fair enough. Especially when most commoners in the area are not dressed that way. An attempt to fit in with the locals gone horribly, horribly wrong.

    Very, very true in real life. However... in gw2 though where so much is in varying levels of skimpy something that fully covers has the feel of heavy or medium armor. Especially when outfits they give NPCs to "cool off" exposes more skin. So, the hope of if it were to be made into an armor skin it would be made into heavy. An outfit would be ok, but those get so limiting (example: can't where glasses or anything with them)

    You make Mark Twain sad: "I don't give a damn for a man that can only spell a word one way."

     

    But really the people do the "ideal" build anyway. Lots of people Google builds before even making a class. That's why raids expect specs before you can play with them. I personally find it sad and unimaginative, cause it leaves out people who don't have the raids ideal build but may have stumbled onto something really good for them. But to each their own. I don't see how having a new racial skill path would change this significantly, especially if every class has it. Could open up unusual combos for those of us who are like to play the really odd.

     

    Also, it's neat to see when games add in the stuff in their lore and stories. Charr should jump slightly farther than a human or Sylvari (advantage in jp mixed with disadvantage cause it's when they are on all fours, larger size, and overshooting jumps). Even simple and dumb things that show off the different cultures and species would be neat. Just some random animations like Charr shake off when they exit water or Sylvari leaves droop more in the desert.

    Funny, I'm the opposite. Taimi is the only asura I like (from gw2, loved Vekk from gw1). Most embody the bad parts of grad school too much. Taimi has the nice freelance scientist, run amuck curiosity feel. For the record, I would have totally poked the red exalted.

  9. Had been able to log in for a moment earlier. Now can't log at all. Says can't connect to network / check internet. When on trading Post was down and kept getting a pop up saying not connected. Toon mapped to divinity's reach, both don't think that actually happened. Still showed in Lions Arch.

  10. I would love if the elonian cavalier clothes became heavy armor skin pieces. I guess I'd settle for it as an outfit, but it would be much nicer to have stuff in parts. There are so many outfits I don't buy cause I like one piece of them but hate the rest cause it's too skimpy or bulky of charr or too gaudy or etc. If I got to pick parts I would buy so much more

    > More pants, less buttcapes.

     

    Thank you, that is exactly correct.

     

    I think heavy armor pains me the most. Most of the lower armor parts are just skirt things and are rediculously stiff. I get that a few are supposed to be plates (how that doesn't slice up an characters legs as they run is beyond me). But every single piece is super stiff. Only the kodan leggings has soft parts. I get it, they are trying to convey heavy armor. But what about chain? It should hang and move like cloth. But fit the heavy idea.

     

    And then the shoulder guards for Charr. I play primarily Charr and most are Ash. How am I supposed to sneak through anything without getting wedged with 90% of shoulder guards? They are too massive. Need some lean ones to balance out.
