And decrying every other race choice as teh suck and worthless. Now we can choose to play what race we like out of flavor, without having this on top.

    And at that point it ceases being culture skills if anyone can train them.

    WoW is a good example of how bad it can go with racials.

    I think you misunderstand. People constantly change races in WoW due to perceived notions of racials being subpar or OP. And I repeat, do you really want racials on top of having the best classes? So if you want to be an engineer, you have to be a sylvarri engineer or you are gimping yourself, could very well be one of them.

    Look at WoW and the endless bickering about racial imbalance and how you need to be certain races to be optimal. Do you really want -that- here?

    >

    > I'm sorry but that is just false. The community reacted exactly like it should have. An employee of Anet attacked a community member that has added a ton for absolutely no reason. Anet has always asked the entire community to opine,interact, criticise, discuss on every platform, everywhere, all the time, in game and out. You cannot tell a community you will always be open to them then allow an employee to insult and degrade.

     

    Call it what you want, nothing was presented as reasonable discourse with a very large amount of spammed threads to clog the forum. Plenty of posters declared for throwing anet under the bus and comming up with all sorts of ridiculous things such as asking if they were racist or had a whole culture of it. Simply unable to wait for a response from Anet on the matter.

    The community went way over the rails in witch hunting and baying for blood. That is what i find utterly deplorable. Plenty of angsty edgelord coments that is disgusting to read.

    > Since I farm every node the beetle is kind of annoying, since demounting means you have to wait 10 seconds to get speed (unless it's going down). I understand that they don't want to make jackal and raptor useless, but a) they are far more agile and can turn easily, while the beetle is hard to steer at full speed and b) just lower the time to 5s or so.

     

    Use raptor or jackal for farming, the beetle is a wrong mount choice for that.
