I am not a fan of the Living Story. I like the concept, hate how its being done. But I must commend Arenanet on Cutthroat politics. I like how this is being done…how we find random things in the world to support our candidate. I like how, while representing the candidate of our choosing, we gain achievements and favor with him/her. The mini games(particularly the Aspect Arena) are actually fun. I normally would play a minigame once or twice and walk away..but this is actually fun and almost worth while.

And I LOVE LOVE how we learn about the character through the Candidate trials. Kiel could have taken that money, but she chose to give it back. I LOVE the trial ‘event’. You really need to do more like this. Please! I do not like gimmicky “pick up the gun and fire at mines” type of instances. I love these mini dungeons where my character and playstyle matters, not how I handle some whacky gimmick.

+1 for the mini games
+1 for this particular living story arc
+2 for candidate trials (I would love if more of the stories are told in this manner)
