deatine.2498 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 I care about 20% of the first option. I care about 100% of the second point. So naturally, I take the second option. Interestingly, I care most strongly about something you didn't even list, open world meta events. I absolutely love Dragonfall, I enjoyed Silverwastes and Dragonfall. I would like a new world boss system. I am curious about the new strike missions or whatsitcalled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smashgodlight.6584 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 We want more choices as a game has multiple type of characters some love the WvW PvP or Raid and Fractals others love the story lines and free roaming ! But if you think about it both are equal ! Of course an mmo need to have PvP or WvW or Dungeon content (which right now dungeons are dead !) but they could do something that is more rewarding at least to make them feel alive again ! On the other hand Free roamers prefer farming instead of competing so you have to give them some content to have them in the game other wise you will lose people !

Buran.3796 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 A large Cantha expansion with new specs, housing, new PvP game modes and a new WvW map more in the line with the one in ESO (more amount of structures and with deeper construction mechanics), and character platiffs. Only the last piece "was delivered" so the presentation was largely meaningless and irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pretty sure that if you think that an MMORPG's healthy progression is the "Living Story" you are far from being right. Those who log in daily in GW2 are those who do Fractals, PvP, WvW and Raids. Occasionally do Meta-Events but only if they are too tired to flip prices in the Trading Post. Living Story is something we'd do for 2 hours max, explore the new region, realize it is another copy-paste currency farming map, try to find an exploit and if all else fails it's abandoned. That's just about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coso.9173 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Each living world episode gives me much more than 2 3 hours of game play. To me it's like 30 or 49 hours each, because I play the story then play the maps complete events then start with achievements and all of that takes a lot of time if you play casually like I do.

Blaeys.3102 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Your poll really doesn't offer a choice - and I think you know that (evidenced by the fact that you pretty much immediately let everyone know what you voted for). Basically, you are just asking people if they like living story. I think it needs some love (and that love includes many of the elements you list in your other response), but Living Story (which I think includes open world content) remains the most important part of the game for a singular reason - it is what sets GW2 apart from other games. It is what the game has been built around since day one. Now, they may not have gotten it right some of the time, but when they do, it is a compelling and fun experience. I think there are things on your list that are absolutely required to keep the game healthy - but there are also things on that list that should probably be de-emphasized and set aside to focus more resources on the one thing that sets GW2 apart (and that is open world living story). Your poll is more or less useless because, again, it really isn't a poll. You're just asking people if they like living story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poormany.4507 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 How about both getting equal amounts of focus like they should be? Rn, it just seem like some of the areas in the first option are getting close to no focus or are just being put off for later repeatedly (WvW alliances).
