Guild Wars 2

I heard all about the hate for the new leveling system. I like to make new characters from time to time and at first I thought the hate was all just because of the nerf to the key farming that was going on. I actually dismissed this whole thing as mere whining from people who farm keys.

I made a new character just to check things out because, hey, surely it can’t be that bad. Holy crap was I wrong. I realize that there are already plenty of posts covering this topic, so I wont go off on a rant. I just wanted to add my input as well so that ArenaNet sees just how many of their customers dislike being treated like simpletons who can’t think for themselves.

You know, if you guys had released this feature back in April, you could have easily rolled back the feature and claim an April Fool’s joke, but you wont get that luxury this time. This time, you can’t hide this as a joke. You have, whether you intended to or not, insulted the intelligence of your player base, your customers, and your future customers.

Look, the people you’re treating in this manner are the people you depend on. We buy your game, we promote your product, we connect you to our friends, we drive your profits up. We guard you while you sleep. Do not kitten with us.

Spoiler alert, the youtube video below contains Brad Pitt playing his character of Tyler Durden in Fight Club. It contains adult language and is unsuitable for your player base because we are children (according to ArenaNet). Viewer discretion is advised (Kids, that means do not click on that video. Go back to Frostgorge Sound as a lvl 5 like that GPS told you to)
