Guild Wars 2

This is what bothers me the most about this event.

I refused to participate because I don’t want to waste several hours of my time pressing “1” among invisible crowd, while badly lagging.

And it so happens that in GW2 this gameplay gives best rewards. Whether it’s one-time events, or world dragon events, or orichalcum runs. You just have to be there and press only “1”.

I’m not sad because I missed getting 30-200g. I’m sad because this is so far away from GW1, so far away from any value system that exists in this world, and so far away from any other game. It’s the bottom pit of the universe. When you wake up in the morning and think: “What activity I could do today”, there is nothing you can think of, that is as mindless as GW2 super-farming. Even staring at the sky is 10x better because it improves your focus and relaxes. Even typing in online forums uses some degree of intellect. And tell me, what other game offers biggest rewards, so much bigger than anything else, for just being there and pressing “1”? On a consistent basis.

No doubt ANet did a proper research and apparently there’s a huge market for this kind of gameplay. But I will not participate so have “fun” and thanks for all the fish.
