Guild Wars 2

I’ve played the new patch content today – it was moderately fun.
More zerging – but by now we expect as much. I wouldn’t say any of it was in any way memorable or that much fun.

One of the issues is that the content is so open world that you can’t be immersed at all with 40+ players running around doing the same thing. A more instanced approach wouldn’t have been a bad choice.
Doing it – my only motivation was getting the achievements done and i found myself thinking " good – now I never need to do this again" each time one of them ticked off.

That – for whatever reason – stands as a testimony that something is wrong. Somewhere along the line the content no longer provides a fun and engaging experience.

One other issue that kills immersion is the continuation of DE in the entire area.
There’s a huge tower that wasn’t there before and a TON of Krait / NC forces BUT the humans and centaurs are still at it like there’s no tomorrow. They could have at least put these events on hold since I doubt they would still be engaged in the same old struggle given the new circumstances.

Finally there’s the issue of " Something Alliance " – why do we need so many enemy alliances? Why can’t they just engage us on their own?

Krait are described as extremely xenophobic – to the point that they don’t even communicate with other races – yet they’ve set out to build this huge structure with the NC and are actually fighting together.

If I understand Krait – they believe themselves to be the chosen race – and will enslave/kill all other races. I can’t really see how they haven’t turned on the NC the moment they got what they want.

Also – the NC seem so different from the Krait the whole alliance seems artificial.

Any other players feeling the same? Any thoughts or comments?

Are we going to see more stuff like this in the future – with x y and z enemies teaming up? Do you want that?
