Guild Wars 2

No one who tried it will forget, and no one who beat it will get tired of hearing someone else complain it was impossible. BTW, I have not been able to do it. Great set piece ANet, I hope you make more events that not everyone can ace. Where is the fun in “everyone gets a trophy”?

At least someone else understands the problem with “everyone gets a trophy.”

Honestly I’m disappointed with the reward for the Clock Tower. The only way for someone who beat it to prove it is to link the item in chat. It has no special skin. There is no special title. The achievement can’t be shown in any way.

Although, given that a lot of the rage over the Clock Tower seems to come from people who believe they need to do it for the Emissary title I can understand not having anything special. It’s just sad that people who actually accomplished something challenging get nothing really special/unique because those who can’t will cry foul.

Then again I grew up playing CoCo, NES, and SNES games and learned pretty quickly sometimes you just have to accept that you suck and will never beat whatever game. Back then we didn’t have forums to cry on or a way to demand devs give us our satisfaction. If we wanted the satisfaction of beating something, well we kitten well got better at it.

The Clock Tower will definitely be the thing I remember most fondly from this event. Followed closely by the scavenger hunt (which I did without google).
