Dev.s please remake the skills and armors.
Then go play one of those games if you like them so much better. Guild Wars 2 is a great looking game, in fact the best looking to date. No need to change that.
This post is missing an ‘in my opinion…’. Also, if you’re going to use a source to back up your claim, you need to reference it. Someone a bit less generous might imply you made it up to back your claim.
Armour and weapon skins will be added over time (how old is Lineage 2 now?), and, imo, the skill animations look good as they are.
PvE and PvP gear was seperate in GW1 as well, and only serves to create an even playing field where skill and builds matter.
And Legendaries have no different stats to Exotics at the moment (will be boosted to Ascended when the Ascended weapons come out), and are merely aesthetic, meaning you don’t need to get them.

Eh, excuse me medium armor makes your character looks like a total hobo and well ok tell me the difference between rangers shortbow skills??? Also in GW1 you could enter pvp with your pve character + GW1 armor design looks awesome… Also the skills do look better than GW2. I remember playing gw1 with my friends and we were all like " OMG he got obsidian armor so cool" and now we gave up playing GW2, because we see someone with Meteorlogicus scepter and we are like “lol this looks ridiculous”.. The game is exciting , pvp requires skill , but the moment with looting/crafting Epicly looking strong gear is missing.. And 50% of the skills are poorly drawn..(not to mention that from 10 skills for example you have 1 that is completely pointless like Jump Shot.. the chance of landing the skill in pvp is like 5%)
OK, I’ll put it another way.
You don’t like the armour and skill animations, I do.
Who should they listen to, given that we’re both paying customers?
At the end of the day, it’s down to preference, and they’re not going to be able to please everyone.
Given the amount of work it’d take to re-animate the skills, remodel all of the armour ect, they’re better off just adding more armour to please a wider range of people.

The only thing that gets me…is the total lack of heavy armor LOOKING HEAVY!
There is an incredible shortage of heavy armor that looks good that doesn’t require a dungeoun token. Honestly most of those skins look terrible as well.
Heavy armor needs to look heavy, look menacing, and have total helmet coverage! Why does 90% (read nigh all of them) have full open face helms?
It’s time to add the dungeoun sets to non-dungeoun related activities. Or make dungeouns scalable to number of people in them. Add more skins to the game that are far more varied in looks that don’t require dungeoun runs… seriously every holiday we get a tonne of weapon skins with most being silly…and no full set armor skins?!
