@OP, I'm not sure how long you've been playing, if the new player experience was in place or not, or when you last leveled up a character. Part of the level up is a pop-up that gives info, pointing out new skills, what are skill points and how to apply them (even opens the hero panel), what power, precision, etc are good for, that sort of thing. As @"kharmin.7683" said, the game doesn't force much of anything on anyone, so nobody is forced to look at that information when leveling up. I know my brother and daughter, both recent recruits, didn't bother to since I was around to guide them. The point is, info is there, but the impetus is on the player to acquire it. And don't we have "level up" dungeons now? But who runs them? Level 80's. If new players are forced (level gated?) to do level-up dungeons and strikes, will the level 80's accept them in their parties? I'd say no, nothing would change. So the "forced level up" instances then have to be made solo-able, for an appropriately geared and experienced player. And my brother and daughter have no complaints about the game. They are ages away from where you are and have a ton of content to play through. Maybe the uber-16hrs/day-power-MMO player has a different experience, blowing through content, but I'd say that isn't the norm. [edit] If anything, encouraging guilds may be the best thing for new players, providing possible mentors.

The problem is that enables outside gold sellers an easy means of delivering. Thus, as mentioned, unlikely to happen.

We know literally nothing other than they have told us it is based in Cantha. That immediately triggers those with nostalgia to imagine the best when, again, we literally have no idea. So to speculate what it will or will not offer is pointless and most likely setting up unrealistic expectations.

I forget which settings (can look later) but it does work, with the risk of sliding your cursor off the game. I don't have minimizing issues, just lost cursor. So play with the windowed/fullscreen settings.

You already have been given good info, so I just want to say that the griffon makes the game very fun. I only switch to other mounts when needed for their specialties.

I haven't had that issue on any raptor skin, including the chicken...errr...roadrunner.

It would be nice, but I'd hate for it to happen at the expense of a content drought. There are enough complaints about content now when it is still trickling in.

I have all 3 sets and have never experienced that.

Even games like Civilization (for an example) have DLCs you have to pay to play, so I don't see it as much different. If you started Civ now you'd drop all the cash at once to get it all, but if you played and paid from the beginning, it'd be doled out incrementally. Pretty standard practices I'd say -- except people that play GW2 continuously get rewarded for doing so. Or for logging in at least. I could play Civ every day and get nothing for free.

I think for the majority of that stuff you are 8 years too late. Can you honestly see Anet reworking/adding so many systems to the core game at this point? We'll probably see Housing in EoD, but hopefully not bound to scribing as we know it now. And definitely not bound to a convenience lounge.

Wait for Tuesday 9:00 AM. That's when most announcements hit.

I don't seem to have that problem with my Deadeye. Clicking the skill cancels it, as does weapon swap. What exactly happens for you?

Often the best farming choice is "make gold buy what you need."

As a card-carrying member of Hoarders Anonymous, I recommend saving them. But seriously, if you need gold, do something else for it. If you sell the MCs now, they may be more expensive to buy later if you find you need them. And you can't farm them up, so the TP is it. That's a huge advantage of alt-accounts. I keep the ones earned on my main and sell the rest. Pretty much never have gold issues.

OK, so long as you can pick more than one favorite. Personally, I'd like to see a rework where all characters headshots are shown in a grid (can scroll if they won't all fit) with options on how to display them: by class, alphabetical, user-arranged, etc.

I've seen requests for "main hand shield" on the forums a number of times, and never understood what that is all about. I can't see someone running around with two shields. How does that work? Why?

There is a toggle for it now in Settings.

How about simply, "Run!"?

Day 1. Got taken out by a deer. I shall never forget. * *shudders* *

There is a build link in the comments below the video on youtube.

I enjoy mine, power with primarily greatsword.

You can add me to that list!

I just log in my multiple accounts. Sell coins. Trade laurels for materials to sell. Then play the game.

I doubt it, since PoF gave us rifle. It'll be a melee-based spec. But I'd be good with longbow!

Does any game company advertise/broadcast that their game doesn't work? Seems like bad press to me, better for them to remain silent and just fix the problem?
