Guild Wars 2

Although all the mechanism is really cool, I noticed few moments, mostly the more important ones, in which I had no choice.

Example:
-I join Priory and I just wish to visit their base the fastest I can
-My “enthusiastic sylvari friend” wishes to take me on a trip to get dwarfen artefacts first
-I am like “WTF, I disagree, we can do it later”
-BUT my character says sth like “wy not, I am always up for adventure” (or something like that)

but, WAIT. This was not ME!
I DONT WANT this ‘adventue’ . So it is MY story or not? xD

If it was my story I would go to priory… and than evenually was said to rescue her as she has gone this caves alone. Overall plot will end up being the same, but I would at least feel as the decision maker. My character wont declare that “he is alwys up for the battle” etc :>

Those are really little things, but I felt strange: I was allowed to chose how to protect some boring village (no offence, Quagans :P), but my personal fate was decided for me :\

That’s always bound to happen though. Even if there was a game where you had absolute freedom, some things would be forced upon you whether you liked them or not. If there is a thunderstorm outside, you can’t just decide you don’t want it and it’s gone. Working for the order means you have to take orders for a while, until you become more important.

And with that last sentence, you will NOT be happy when you meet Trahearne…

It is nothing about my absolute freedom. There are many ways to “force” me to do something. If some Priory boss tells me “Go there and do this” it is OK, as he is my boss :P

I just disagree with MY CHARACTER saying things I disagree with.

-Sylvari Enthusiastic Friend: “Go seek Dwarfen artefacts!”
-Me: “Why not, I am always up for an advanture”

Would seem much better in way

-SEF: “Go seek Dvarfen artefacts!”
-Me (After decision made): “Nope, let’s head the Priory base first”
<some time later>
-Bossy Priory Boss: “SEF went to Dwarf caves alone and vanished! Go rescue her!”
-Me: “Gosh, she made herself into the trouble…. Im on my way, sir!”

This doesnt change the overall plot, but I have feeling that it is MY story, and I decided to go with her or not, and finally I do take consequences of this decision.
