Guild Wars 2

Okay, so last year, I played this game from about May to late October (during the time of the Halloween update), and in the process, got a level 80 Elementalist among some other characters. However, by the time I had quit, I was simply burnt out. Between the barrage of constant updates that forced me to do them or miss out on them and the money grind for a legendary weapon (which was basically the endgame at this point), all I had left was WvW, which was getting tiresome after constantly doing it (and the having to pay actual gold to upgrade forts).

Now however, I’m interested in this game again, seeing as Wildstar wasn’t as good as anticipated. Yet, I’m aware I missed tons of “living world” content. Would it even be worth returning to the game after having permanently missed out on so much content and story, and if so, would the problems I faced before I quit continue to haunt me now?

Functionally the game hasn’t really changed much since the last big balance update and the only thing to miss out on in the LS is any one time skins to be honest.

Umm… what.

You’ve paid for the game, it costs you little to nothing to check it out again. You really don’t need to know much more than you can find on the wiki about the previous season of the Living Story to enjoy Season Two, which just began.

You could check out the previous releases by clicking the ‘Releases’ link at the top of this page to find out what’s been added/changed.

There is no longer any time contraints for enjoying the Living Story releases as most of the content is permanent and replayable.

Oh, and many of the previous season’s rewards are now offered for laurels and gold at the Laurel Vendor.

Not sure if you left before the changes to WvW….again, you can either read about them, or jump in and check it out for yourself.

If you decide to come back…Welcome return!
If not….maybe see you another time. =)

If you have to ask…

just check it out and make your own opinon you bought it obviously so its now free for you to pick up again, just try it and turn it off if you dont like it.

personally? yes i think the new story content is worth checking out however pvp/wvw wise nothing much has changed.

Totally a matter of taste. Lots of people have come back and are enjoying it. Lots of people come back and leave again. Which will you be?

Who knows but you?

Edit: Might be worth knowing that the new content is mostly permanent and can be repeated and done at your leisure.

If you enjoy being tossed into an unknown crowd each time you log in, then yeah… Do come back. If not, i advise against it. The game is the same as you remember since day 1 though, nothing has changed, except for some polish, and the living story, which comes and goes.
