Anet, please listen to us
You have to remember one important aspect to this: We are not China.
The game will not function here as it does in China.
The students I know over there are frustrated playing their version of the game too.
Also, by not having vistas and skill challenges available at an early level
I noticed the skill challenge restriction but I was too peeved to notice the vista restrictions. So much for leveling up by exploring the world.

You can get vistas from level 2. They simply don’t show up on the map prior to that. I’ve been getting vistas as I pass them on my character. It’s a gate for information, not for what you can do. The only exception seems to be skill points, which is okay because you can’t use the skills you buy with them anyway at low levels.
I was about to make a 2nd mesmer or guardian next week. I cannot believe how out of touch ANET is with us. I understand they have a vision and I try so hard not to bash, but things like this….

We used to get our first skill at level 5, and before that you could amass some skill points so you could afford at least 2 different utilities to try out. Now we are being harassed, forced to go back and redo earlier areas and backtrack (same for the living story) because of a terrible system that shouldn’t be here in the first place.
It is NOT okay.

I’m sorry, but that is still really bad in my view. You will then have to go back to those maps and do all the skill points later in the game, when you could have simply saved them up for when you did gain access to them.
It makes it more like a grindfest; “Go here!” “Now go over there!” “Now go back here again!”, and it’s much less appealing to play. They’re taking away our choices in the game.
I think this update changed so tired
So with the Chinese game companies what is the difference?
What to open next? VIP?
Its better to update some plot torture novice or a new map of the New World when will it appear

Hell will freeze over before they take action on behalf of their player base demands.
If they created this system entirely for new players only (not for alts, etc), would this solve everything? I think it would, as every single complaint is from people who are used to the old system.
So either they let the two systems coexist or they circumvent the leveling process by giving us more tomes, scrolls, etc.
Bring back: ‘Gamer’ title + MAT’s!
Throw out: Hotjoin!

Did you pick up that line from the video I’ve posted?

No, it’s not ok.
This isn’t just alarmist flaming. There is a serious issue that has been manufactured this patch.
The leveling in this game has be SERIOUSLY effected, for the worse. The only thing that was gated that I can understand is the story (it was disjointed otherwise). Placing a simple tutorial for different abilities and features would have been VERY appreciated (a la PvP tutorial).
Gating mechanics for new players AND old players with new characters is NOT appreciated.

They have been doing interactions with the community the past couple of weeks. It has been 1 day though since this patch was out so I’ll give them a bit of time to see how they respond to the feedback.

Couple of weeks… Out of two years since the game was live, not a great average that.
