Guild Wars 2

Found this when searching for something else and was struck by how similar the comments are. Enjoy. ^^

“What about giving some neat itens to veteran players for our time in GW2?”

“I do think you’re kind of neglecting those of us who’ve been on for a long time. And this is coming from someone who usually agrees with all of your decisions. I just think you should make it worth our time as well”

“I’d like to say I can’t believe people are whining about this, but the sad thing is, I can believe they’re whining. Seriously guys? I pre-purchased the game over a year ago and got an incredible experience for my money by doing so; being part of the actual game beta was a lot of fun and worth the faith I put in the game. Vets have received free items more than once throughout the year, not to mention items exclusive to events we’ve attended. There is nothing game breaking here”

“Just wow, shows you cant make everyone happy. Vets are gettign there Bday gift soon, but how DARE they give new players something cool!! smh, you should be happy this will bring new ppl into the game, and relax”

“Why do business always reward new customers rather than the existing ones who have been with you the past year, not cool”

Was this the outcry over the Heroic Edition? Some players are still posting about that to this very day.

It seems…the more things change, the more they stay the same. I think that’s how the saying goes.

Yah, I tried to put that as the title but forum title length restrictions stopped me. I was just struck at how similar the comments are.

Lmao, could probably copy/paste it to any of the whining threads and just continue on the same conversation… Ya know .. I bet it’s some of the same people >.> (puts Sherlock hat on)

~2 years later, they give the heroic edition to beta participants for free.

Yeah, why would people complain about having to buy an expansion and core game, and then only getting the expansion. If the game is fun, it clearly doesn’t matter if you get even a smidge of what you pay for, especially when for all similar expansions they at least threw a couple of character slots in….
