Guild Wars 2

Over the past few weeks I’ve had this feeling while playing guild wars 2. That it is not the same game it was a year ago, its starting to feel a lot more grindy and tedious than im used to from a year ago. It feels like the game is moving into the same direction as other mmos ( and i dont speak of the sub fees).

One example is : Al ot of Wealthy players who can spend a lot of time on the game can afford all the cool gem store items with gold thus pushing the price up while more casual less Farming players get left out and eventually quit the game because they feel its not worth the time.

I understand the need for real money support on the gem store but arena net advertised themselves as a “Buy once play forever” game. Gems are out of hand.

New content is shallow and rewards are poor. Dungeons are old and we need new ones.

The one thing i still enjoy a lot is WvW that is still a lot of fun and ill stick around only because of that.

Please do not misunderstand my post im not here to bash or complain about the game i love Guild wars a lot ! I just wish to address a few concerns of mine.

I hope the next content patch will prove me wrong

It is still pretty much the same MMO it was at launch, but the recent LS updates have been a mixture if the brilliant (Molten Facility), the good (Thermanova), the bad (ToN), and the downright awful (Halloween).

The inflation you’re seeing is basically unavoidable. In any MMO with some sort of a free economy (I can’t name one without), the farmers will farm and the prices will inflate because they do. There’s nothing you or Anet can do to stop that apart from mass griefing of champ trains orAnet forcing a very low daily gold limit, both of tide being terrible ideas.

The gem store was never designed to be operated by in game gold. Anet need people to spend money. The game is B2P in the sense that you can play everything in the game after buying it once, but don’t expect to be able to get absolutely every item in the game.
