Dear Arenanet,

You have given me the best Wintersday gift you could give, and it is not even one you may have known you were giving me.

I believe in you again.

Wintersday is only 2 days old and it reminds me of those great Wintersday of Guild Wars 1, and yet has so much more. I am having a blast. I am keeping a list of things that have knocked my socks off and stuff I find just super spiffy. So far it is all running smooth for me, and I am pleased as punch.

I love the little “flying saucers” dropping magic snow. The effect is amazing looking.
I love that we can gift exchange and get what we want. I love the joke of the old socks, (even though for years I asked for socks for Christmas, and got them) sweaters and hats.
I love the look of the new Black Lion tool icons.
The first Toymaster Tixx dungeon was nifty and well balanced. Hard, but not so hard that I felt you were trying to torture me.
I love the tiny ventarri (though they can be brutal). And the extra stuff they drop.
I love the balance of quiet solo activities and group play.
I love the sound the little mini snowman makes.
The art of all the decorations is just amazing.

But thank you most for giving me back my belief that Guild Wars and Arenanet are some awesome game developers. I always say to people: Guild Wars is my game. It is the only one I really want to play. You have given my game back to me.

Whoever made Bell Choir, I want to have their babies. I LOVE that minigame. I will be genuinely sad when it’s over.

I love this Winter Wonderland Jumping Puzzle, too! I actually adore the whole event, with the one exception of the mini handling.

Thank you Anet, for a wonderful Wintersday! <3

Loved ALL of the games and activities so far, I’ve gotten 10/12 for the title! > w <
Although the combat PVP minigame seemed a little buggy. There were several occasions when I downed a gift carrier with no one else around without getting credit for the achievement.

Hoopa doopa.

I agree with everything you said. I loved Halloween but for the 2 days this is active now, I am having such a blast. Everything is super balanced and I can’t wait for the upcoming days.
Thank you Anet!
