Thank you anet for this update, I did enjoyed it!

Positive things:
- Tower feels like “raid dungeon” where you need to progress and kill bosses.
- It does looks like Nightmare as advertised, with all the spawn timer and elite mobs.
- Champions at the end of the levels are strong, fights like worm require dodging so it is not just staying in water field and dpsing it down.
-Chambers feels like a small quite reward after hard tower run.
-Hybrid model is really cool.
-Never played content where Marjory and Kasmeer were introduced into the game, but I like them, looking forward to see more.

Negative things:
-Scarlet being Scarlet not revealing anything about what actually drives her to do all the things (short story posted on website didn’t helped much).
-Not casual/newb friendly tower (I know, I love, but we can’t deny it). All the players who used to just run and press 1 in zerker builds are dying in a matter of milliseconds and got really frustrated.

Other thoughts:
After I’ve done the final fight with Hybrid and saw the cinematic, I was left puzzled again with questions like “Scarlet, who the hell are you?”, “Why are you doing this?”, “What is your goal?”. I had a crazy thought that Scarlet maybe could be one of the elder dragons (who I believe can use their powers to shapeshift into anything), I mean she is crazy doing silly things which kill people and make disasters and according to what I’ve read on wiki about elder dragons they are savage creatures which we can’t really understand. Maybe it is kinda amusing game by some of the dragons…

I too also liked this update very much. It was fun and challenging trying to get to the top of the tower with or without a zerg. I thought the little instances were engaging, and i was happy to see rox and braham again in some of them.

If your only playing once every 2 weeks and you want everything to be “easy in a zerg” then this is for you. Your done the first day.

Sorry, this is not accomplishment I can be proud of. How about one living story event that requires intelligence, an actual time commitment and designed for a group of 5 or less. Something that everyone doesn’t complete in a day or two.

I had fun, but I see Tumult’s point. I think that SAB Tribulation mode, queens gauntlet, and high level fractals are good examples of difficult content. Then again, high level fractals needs better rewards and the other two aren’t in game anymore

I see what you did there

Personally I’m ok with Living Story content “consumed” in 2-3 days, that is exactly what I want for PvE content, since I don’t really like to “replay” PvE content a lot it is becomes boring. But having something new for a couple days every couple weeks between WvWvW is fun. I guess it all comes down to things like not everyone will be able to play the full two weeks.
