Guild Wars 2

Its 120 gold for the full set. I tried to play DEs for one hour, netted about 20-40 silvers. I tried farming which netted me around 1 gold per hour.

Now with DR, do you expect me to farm 1 hour, wait 1 hour and then grind another hour. Spending a total 240 hours to get cultural?

You want me to enjoy the game but i want dungeon and cultural armour. But i dont enjoy doing dungeons or doing DEs or kill monsters for drops for gold. And now you put the DR into the game. Do you think this is fun for me? Its fun for you, im sure.

What is wrong with you? Its a game, if its not fun, don’t do it.

Most of the stuff to do at level 80 are supposed to be very long-term investments that take time and effort. Legendaries and cultural gear are special, unique skins for the people that have the ability to acquire all the necessary components and resources. That’s what makes them special and recognizable.

I, personally, think that the cultural armor doesn’t have a steep price, all things considered. I like the idea of having a goal that takes a long time to work for. Gives me something to do.

The anti-bot code is, quite frankly, going to be the downfall of GW2. Once more people start to hit 80 and they stop receiving loot from kills – the threads about this issue will skyrocket.

I wish Arenanet would simply remove the code and start banning bots when they’re reported. Hire 1 developer per 10 servers whose ONLY job it is to follow up on these reports … get rid of the bots and let your players play how they wish.

If I want to stand in an area and kill centaurs for 3 hours and loot them — why shouldn’t I be able to? Has any other MMO ever implemented a code that impeded normal players from farming?

How about this is a completely legitimate, non-sarcastic suggestion:

Go do something else other than farm.

So many modern MMOs have driven players to be goal-oriented: do THIS to get THAT so that you can now do a harder THIS to get a better THAT.

Guild Wars is not that game. The endgame armor sets are small upgrades across tiers, and as such the game drives you to simply go out and experience a diversity of content instead of having a laser-like focus on some particular goal.

This is an adventure game; go out and ADVENTURE. After a while you will have enough money to get what you want, but you may have to actively save in the meantime.

Remember: the company that built this game is the same company that built GW1, a game where the level cap was 20 and there were absolutely, positively no incremental level or gear improvements once at endgame.

Rawr, who are you to tell people how to play, bla bla ANet are a bunch of Nazis etc etc.

Some long post that boils down to that is coming, just wait and see.

Lol “go out and adventure, after a while, u get enougb gold”. I played the game how it is meant to be played from level 1-80. 125 hours, 18 gold.

Great, 833 hours, i will get Tier 3 cultural armour.

Who said you have to get everything in a month? What about some long-term goals actually being long-term?

If you enjoy the game, who cares how long it takes to get whatever reward. You’re having fun playing. If you don’t find the game play fun…what are you doing? A set of armor isn’t going to change it into a game you enjoy.

And?
what is the hurry? Its an MMO you have to work for it, if you can earn it after a couple days..then what would you work for?
The I want it now crowd is the death of progression.

I’ve 100% exploration, 100% vistas, 100% hearts, 100% POIs. The medium armour is ugly, i feel embrassed running around in it. I just want something that looks nice and decent. Anet said they didnt want us to grind yet, they make the decent looking armours all impossible to get without grinding and now the implement anti-grind into the system.

What am i supposed to do? Buy gems? Wait…..i’ve just answered my own questions.

you, the player, can make a grind out of ANY game. To get max level and max gear for your build the grind is really, really low compared to most MMORPG.
