Guild Wars 2

First of all, I almost never capitalize anything unless I consider it “formal.”

ArenaNet? I’ve just spent most of the day with my guild out in the Lost Shores, and I have to say, you outdid yourselves.

Yes, there have been buggy events. No, everything hasn’t worked “perfectly,” and there is room for improvement. Yes, it’s a relatively small area, very populated with events, mobs, etc.

But as an ex-geek (is there really any such thing?) I have to sit back and consider the coding complexity, the building, the designing, the timing, the planning, the coordinating … and that’s just the top level, the peripheral. That doesn’t actually take in to consideration the very painstaking detail I saw out there.

I trust that you will continue your path of excellence, you will continue as you’ve set out. You made promises to us and, to date, as near as I can tell, you’re striving to keep them. I’m not happy with everything you’ve done — the Guardian key-strike change still irks me! But from the bottom of my itty-bitty gamer’s heart, I thank you for the time, the effort, everything you guys put in to, and GIVE to, this beautiful game.
