Guild Wars 2

You guys should consider trusting my machine once I use google authenticator.
I can not.
No.
I will not use 2 factor authentication each and every time I log into a video game.
I hate the way you want me to enter this 6 digit code every time I want to login.
It forces me to go find my phone.
I don’t want to go hunt down my phone.
I want to play a game.
I even hate the way D3 does it.
They have me track down my phone once a week.
Lame.
Why is it that gmail will let me trust a machine?
Not just trust it.
Trust it forever!
Yeah.
Forever!
Do that … and then I’ll use two factor authentication.
If my video game has more security then my email.
If my video game has more security then my online banking.
There is a serious problem with …
something.

I agree.

I absolutely love that they went with Google Auth for two-factor authentication, but
it’s crazy annoying to have to enter a new code every time the game crashes, or to log into the forums even though you just logged into the game with your auth code.

A “Trust Computer” option would be VERY well received.

Looks like they may have put this in?
I haven’t had to authenticate in a few days.

Says they’ve definitely been working on this option.
