Guild Wars 2

Will we see new sets in next year? My charr t3 starts to boring me a bit.

Maybe.

That’s all one can say.

It would be nice to see more cultural/non-gemstore armor added to the game, but is highly unlikely to happen… saddly

Why is it that people who have been playing the game for a long time expect new content to be added just for them, even though new players join every day who will take a few months to be in a full set of T3 cultural?

I understand you get bored, but the simple truth is content in MMOs are built for new players, not old ones, otherwise they can’t retain anyone to begin with, and lose long-term market power. Thats why most of the newest armor skins so far are in the gem store, its the easiest way to get a good look when you’ve just come to the game, all you have to do is open your wallet. And it benefits Anet at the same time, too…

Have you see the Charr cultural armor ? No one seeing them can think “hey, more than half of them really looks good and fit my Charr really well !”
They don’t make a nice impression on any one.

And they said they weren’t into doing Cultural armor anymore because it was a waste of making so much sets when only 1 race could use it. They might do it again sometime, but don’t expect it any time soon.

Try playing a charr and actually ya see why. Stretched textures everywhere, most of armors doesnt even have a hole for tail, on top of that light t3 dedicated for charr don’t have hole for tail, removes hairs.

They reworked a heavy dredge armor some time ago, but they forgot to adjust weapons for it, and i think the olny reason behind it was to make Molten Alliance looks better, as previously its was a ugly joke
