Sorem.9157 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 What a blast! I loved the new map, the content, the collections, the dialogues, the fights, the metas, the scenario, THE STORY (yes, the ending was brilliant, in my opinion): everything was on point! The mechanics of that last fight, oh my! Everything was exceptionally well done and i must say that i am grateful for being able to experience it. Credit must be given when it is due and i must say Great Job to ArenaNet and all the developers that took part on this episode. Awesome work.

Omernon.9762 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 I’m sorry, but what’s wrong with Kourna? As far as the story goes Istan was my favorite (I really like that prison break mission), followed by Kourna (ending was great) and Ep5. Episode 2 was rather forgettable and although Jahai has a nice touch, main story isn’t really that engaging in my humble opinion (that part when you run away from Kralk is pretty good tho). > @"ZeftheWicked.3076" said: > > @"Sorem.9157" said: > > HYPE FOR EPISODE 6 > > You might wanna hold your horses there chief.

Parts of map inaccessible (the fortress). Main meta cut down (was supposed to be 3 alleys), and large zones with nothing going on in them (north desert). The story itself was good, i do love Joko and enjoyed that part as well. But the map itself is by far the worst of all 5, if only on account being only one that was shipped unfinished. I dread the last map (which should be most amazing) being done by the team that delievered the weakest one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember Kourna? Guess who's making ep 6... Kourna came with the Beetle. I think you're forgetting to add that to the equation. I'd trade an extra mount for a map with an unfinished meta any time. We have enough farms already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vancho.8750 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 The Kourna meta would have been 10 times better if Joko was in a lounge on top and just ordering around the awakened inquest. Imagine that and when the asura fails Joko is all like "No, no you imbecile,not like that" and trows a Canid at someones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember Kourna? Guess who's making ep 6... Kourna's story missions were far better than All or Nothing just in terms of gameplay. Like if you look at the first mission with the Tyrian Envoy, the mission to set up base, and everything about the final mission with the showdown with Joko were all far more interesting mechanically than Kralk's boss fight which is largely fighting zergs of nonthreatening mobs to power up crystals at which point you fight static objects. It's a less mechanically interesting and interactive version of the Octovine fight. Regarding gameplay, the teams behind designing the broad strokes of the story and implementing the actual episodes are both different teams. This episode ended big note with a pretty burtal cliff hanger that's going to be mostly independent from the teams designing the maps and missions.

Nothing, except for the pseudo-meta. ;) > @"mortrialus.3062" said: > Kourna's story missions were far better than All or Nothing just in terms of gameplay. Yep, these episode's missions were extremely boring to do in comparison, even though the finale with its cutscenes as well as its cinematography was extraordinary.
