Guild Wars 2

The dungeons are not going to be reworked. They’re designed to be easily done by that random pug group that has a few baddies in it. That’s the standard they’re measuring by – the dungeon is made for that specific group to be able to complete it.

That’s what I’m saying – the new TA path although easy is harder than what pugs usually do and as such nobody does it. Because it requires a tad more effort and time.

The devs are in a very sticky situation now :

On one hand they have a minority of players that ask for better, more challenging and more rewarding dungeons.
On the other hand they have a LOT of players that are casual and bad to the extreme that would be unable to complete any content that’s harder than what we have in dungeons right now.
The sad part is that the second group I mentioned is MORE numerous – and they’re also the ones more likely to spend cash in the gem store ( because good players can just farm or find smart ways to make money) – it’s the casuals that they have to keep happy.

They tried finding middle ground with fractals – content that everyone can do but if you’re good you can do it in a " hard mode" and if you’re bad you can still do it in " easy mode".
The problems there have been listed in the fractals CDI and mostly revolve around lack of content, lack of story and inappropriate rewards.

I do not believe a dungeon overhaul will fix anything.

Thanks ANet, for moving this thread to the last place were it will get a sane, considered response…

Maybe it is a sane and considered response, just not the one you was looking for.
