Guild Wars 2

Sanquin.8396:

For us people who are useless at the game….. for example, me. The help from heros and henchmen in guild wars 1 was so useful…

I know people have requested this before but I believe it is now the only thing missing from making GW2 a great game for everyone, even us casual players.

Will you at all seriously consider these requests?

The difficulty of the game is the only thing that stops me playing.

Terrible idea,makes a gap in the community and people will play less with each other.Why join that random guy when you can make your own party of bots ? Nah..not in gw2.

Let’s say for discussion purposes that hencemen are added to the game (they seriously should never even consider adding them imo), what happens when you enter the dungeon and they all stand there in the red circles being 1 shot by the bosses power-up attacks. Now you can have it like GW1 where you can order them to go to certain points, but unless you’re going to sit there clicking them to move every time a red circle pops up around them, you’re going to be worse off with them then having a random pug who at least has the ability to move themselves.
Let’s look at fractals where you need AR to survive most bosses, they have only just add the characters AR to rangers pet’s can you imagine how long it’d be until they add it to hencemen and until they do, they’d be useless and again would make the dungeon even harder then pugging it.
Then, when and if Anet finally make hencemen slightly effective players you might as well be playing a single player game because there is nothing making you even talk to another real player. Why play an MMO (Massively MULTIPLAYER online) when you do not want to group or communicate with other players.
