Guild Wars 2

Okay, there are dozens of topics like this and I still wanted to make my own. I guess that goes to show how disappointed and worried I am with GW2 right now. The thing is that after the first living story season ended, there has been just too little new endgame content. After the April feature patch there was a long pause in new content. Then we got four living story updates with instances that could be finished in a few hours, achievements and all. And now there is already another hiatus. Season 1 had no such hiatuses; there was always something like SAB to engage us. Dry Top is a nice new area, but at this rate it is going to take decades before that map of Tyria is completely open for us.

Furthermore, the devs don’t tell us anymore what’s on the horizon. This leaves me to wonder if they are so low on resources that they can’t announce any interesting future developments. And the feature patch previews have been pretty meh. No significant improvements announced so far for endgame players.

If it weren’t for the April patch’s wardrobe and skin collecting, I would pretty much have stopped playing already. Soon I have all dungeon skins in my pocket and that project is done (I am not going to farm gold to buy gems for gem store skins). So after 4500 hours it seems that I’ll soon drop out of this game which is sad since the game play itself is good, the graphics are neat and it would be fun to do something meaningful with my guildies again.

You shouldn’t minimize dry top. It took developers a lot of time to build that map for us. Realize that it is content.

Also, the LS starts up again in September. they took a break to give us several weeks of “what is upcoming in the near future”.

They have also significantly ramped up their forum presence and Restarted the CDI.

Do you mind listing exactly what the devs need to do for you? Because you are turning a blind eye to the things they are doing, and focusing on how much you want to leave.

like taking ages to unveil all of Tyria is a bad thing, for an mmo, given the size of dry top and how little, comparatively, of the map it unlocked.

It sounds like you are -heavily- mired in the oceans of pessimism that are these forums without just cause, to me.
