Guild Wars 2

The combat – promised to be action-based and exciting – is monotonous and stale.

Enemies have very little intelligence or variety. DPS builds are linear and simplistic.

Content is on-the-rails, linear, and repetitive. Zones are designed strangely, not as an open world, but as static instances – whoever thought to make all zones rectangular was smoking something……

Dungeons are terrible – they are short, linear pathways with a handful of too-much-health enemies in the way for some really boring rewards (oh yawn, another yellow to sell on the trading house and a couple useless tokens to grind).

Aside from their broken dungeons and tepid living story, the only thing GW2 has going for it was fractals – and those aren’t being expanded.

This has to be one of the most boring MMO’s I’ve ever played.

It’s kinda pretty though, I’ll give it that.

I dont agree with most of the things you said. Most mmo’s have brainless mobs and i think more random things happen in this game than in other mmo’s. What makes it boring for me now tho, is that ive done basically everything 100 times already and the living story is not litting my yayfeeling. The last livingstory was superboring, and this one will probably be superboring as well.

I seriously just want an expansion now. I want to see cantha & Nightfall but it feels like its never gonna happen. Its been 2 years now… I start to get a bit worried.

I’m not saying any other MMO is any better – most are much worse.

But that doesn’t change my opinion about GW2 either.

Mostly I’m just frustrated because the Manifesto promised a lot – so I spent a couple hundred dollars on this game, played for just over a year.

And in the end, I realize that aside from some neat art, the game actually kinda sucks.
