As a longtime diehard GW1 player I have to say that I miss my heros. For the times when guildies are not on and the times I just liked to run alone with my trusted heros…I miss Oggie, Master, Xandra, Gwen, Jora, Dunk, and the rest.
GW2 is big on dungeons and alot of the people here almost seem to live for dungeons and elite rewards….dungeons I may never run and rewards I will never have. I work long hours and therefore can’t play the amount of hours I would LIKE to, so its hard to commit myself to the long hours of dungeon runs to get the elite armor and weapons. Belive me, I wish I could but I don’t have that kidn of time.
Ok, my point…a great deal of the players are busy in these dungeons trying for the latesy and greatest elite weapons…therefore there are LESS peopple in PVE on the field to help other players out. I simply can not run solo in the higher level areas through large mobs and champion battles and such. I get flattened.
My guild is small (by choice) and is a small group on long time GW1 friends. But I can’t always depend on them being online and can’t expect them to help me every time I run.
I want some heros back. I don’t care if it’s just one, two or three…I want them back.
If every field was full of random players like GW2 intended it would be ok as is…but thats not the case. There are times I am standing around waiting and waiting just hoping someone shows up…but then they don’t and I can’t achieve my goals for that area.
How about creating the sons and daughters of the GW1 heros just to tie in nostalgia to GW1 and put a smile on us long time GW1 fans faces?
How many times have I told people that I’d give anything to sneak my Oggie and Olias into GW2? Alot.
Simply put, I need help and people would rather run dungeons for elite gear than actually play in the field these days.
