Guild Wars 2

I don’t know if everyone feels the same way I do about gw2 right now. For me, gw2 has become a ball of mess to the point that its become a little ridiculous:

EASY ways to make money: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHdeAaYz8gM

EASY dungeons: dungeons generally have become heavy zerkers only environment where everyones using the stacking “exploits”.

EASY pvp: AI minion builds (spirit ranger, minion mancer, pu mesmer) have become the new meta and the arenas littered with AI builds. There are also a few other OP builds that doesnt require AIs…

EASY wvw: Doesn’t matter how good your server is, more players + more coverage = win. Also, bring heavies only.

As for the open world pve, I get the idea of end-game ascended gear forcing players to go back to lower level zones for dragonite ores, but its turned into a waiting game: checking http://us.gw2stuff.com/ for world boss timers. The process of getting end-game gear is no longer fun, its become a time-gated waiting game; waiting for daily laurels, waiting for daily mats.

I understand that the devs are trying to fix some of these things right now (such as bringing down the zerker meta https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/balance/PvE-Revising-the-DPS-Meta), but there have been some bad ideas that somehow managed to make its way into the game. Though, the game is still young and theres still time to fix a lot of loopholes and balance issues.

HOWEVER, if I could describe this game with one word at the moment, it would be frustrating.

As a rule of thumb, I always try to decide what my solution would be to a problem before I bring up a complaint, or issue. So, out of curiosity, what is it that you are looking for in this game? And why is it that this game hasn’t satisfied what it is you’re looking for? Just some questions to consider…

there is a virtual ton of posts about why some are not satisfied and what they are looking for.
like…ascended. gear vertical progression. too much grind.
it’s a lot of complaints, but also many many solutions.

but it doesn’t mean there is any possibility that anet will listen to it.
it’s not the way you talk on the forum that makes it more interesting for anet.
it’s money. it’s numbers.

I want to buy an expansion. Keep the actual game as it is, if you want…

The expansion that I want to buy must have new and larger maps, after 200 years abandoned by any civilization, new races to play as enemies of Tyria, I can choose to play among them, they don’t select you before to kill, they just “target” you to kill, they kil even weaponless, they are wild and in those lands there are no order, no asura teletransportation technology, they ride horses and other criatures, includind flying ones, they live in open world PvP, without laws. Tyria wants to conquest those lands again, but so many will die before, so many…

I want to buy an expansion. Do you can, do you may sell it, Arenanet?
I will pay for something with value.

In fact, I’m prophesying, you can not see the future of GW2?

I do WvW and PvE (dungeons).

I feel that GW2 is a very unbalanced game, in regard to the professions DPS output and Utility.

Warr / Guard vs Eng / Necro ?

In WvW it’s just the size of the zerg.

Very enjoyable so far. But I would like it if anet added more permanent content; less temporary content. New zones, dungeons and the introduction of a new race+dragon are long overdue. And I’m looking forward to that new WvW mists map!

Just spent 4-6 months making ascended berserker gear for it to be taken off me…

Awful reminder how much I should go outside and actually accomplish something instead of buying $50 gems every 2 weeks

I really like GW2, the only major problem I have is the cost to move worlds. All my friends are in whiteside ridge whilst I’m in blacktide The cost of moving just seems to go up in gems and I simply can’t afford it. The rest is just little things. For instance as a charr your gladium father looks nothing like your character and when joining the priory as an asura Zoja says you’ll settle in with the vigil after defeating Brakt.
