Guild Wars 2

Please keep it the size it is Anet. Heck, I would even love the tequatl mini to be bigger.

Man, people really will complain about everything. . . .

I like the large size of the minis, a lot of them are so small you can hardly see the details.

Well, if the topic is becoming things that have just become too big and get in the way, let’s talk about those white and black giant wings. Those make the mini dragon look like that little rock.

Nothing says “Hey, did my video card just over heat?” like a Char walking into your FOV between the camera and your character wearing black wings.

More like Shenron from artist Akira Toriyama in Dragon Ball!

head is too small looks like snake instead of dragon

This is going to make people “WTF” at me, but…

The Mystical Dragon mini creeps me out. It makes me think of a disgusting worm. x.x

I prefer my Mini Red Panda to be honest. Small, adorable, and cuddleable (well, not really).

WTF@ you! LOL!

No, I’m with you, it totally freaks me out. I like the spinning animation it does, but nope I will not be using it as my mini pet! I’m not a big snake fan and that is what it looks like to me. Give me something cute and cuddly any day.

Whenever I have a bad day, I’m going to remember the fact that someone started a thread about how a mini was too large, and that memory will make me smile.

Maybe they could do ‘largies’ and re-release all minis in a bigger format!

Title: MY MINI IS TOO SMALL!

ANet, please make my all my minis the size of the Mystical Dragon. And while you’re at it, make my dragon twice as big. Tyvm.

By the six, read your own sig before you ask for such things!

And after that happens, here’s the first forum post:

ANet, why did you nerf the size of my Mystical Dragon. It used to be the biggest mini in the game, now even mini Zojja is the same size. I would never have signed on for 2-factor authentication if I had know this was going to happen.

Oh wtf. You get something nice that doesn’t cost gems, gold, or hoops to jump through…and people complain.

I like it when things start to get large long and obstructive. :P

Kind of the point.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_dragon

If they make my floaty noodle any smaller I’m gonna make a new topic and complain about it!

It’s awesome like it is – please don’t change the size, Anet!

The mystic dragon is a Chinese dragon, a serpent of the wind, so to speak. They have no wings.

Leave my chinese noodle alone, it’s fine.

Yeah, I am occupying the same “space” as them. And I want them to see my mini, not for it to become some obscure footnote that nobody sees because its too small.

It doesn’t have to be twice the length of a human for others to see it. Minis at the current average size are plainly visible as they are. “I want them to see it” isn’t an argument for keeping its current size, because they can see it. They can see it so much that it’s a problem. Reduce it to a size where they can see it but it isn’t a problem. I’m not asking for it to be shrunk into oblivion, just to a size that vaguely approaches normal mini size.

Its perfect, check it out! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UdaIN1HIg48

The only way it could be any better is if my Asura could ride on it. Any attempts to resize my dragon will be met with armed resistance.

Nope. On the contrary, “minis” need to be bigger. As it is, they’re pointless. If you’re going to give us toys to show off, make them big enough to matter. This is pretty much the only mini that’s any good, IMHO. Except for the annoying growling.

Scarlet Mini should be bigger. But she is so small, you can hardly see her.

If we don’t get a Kralkatorrik mini that’s the size of the largest Norn, I’m quitting games forever.

way too big. and flashy. I think mini’s should be subtle

Garambola.2461:

But dragons are big. Of course the dragon mini is bigger than a hylek for example.

But it should be about the same size as the mini Tequatl

Arewn.2368:

these are supposed to be miniatures, and that something that large and long is getting obstructive.

They are miniatures though, miniatures of far larger creatures.

Dear Arena Net,
For Christmas I want an actual flying tapeworm mini, and for it to be as big if not bigger that the Mystic Dragon.

Darkness Commander.6417:

It’s appearance is perfect! I really like it.
Fortunately reducing it’s currently too big size will not detract from that. You can still appreciate it roaming around the world, view it in your hero panel, or zoom in to get a good look at it.

Right, and they all meet a “miniature” scale. They are not to scale of the creatures they are based off of. Tequatl and the Great Jungle Worms being notable examples of this. There are sometimes slight off-sets of size between minis to represent the scale difference. But they all still meet that “miniature” scale.
All but the Mystic Dragon, which seems to meet the ranger pet scale.
If it was a ranger pet, necro minion, summon from a rune set, or something to that affect, it would be fine at it’s current size. It’s okay for these things to be bigger because they are gameplay relevant.

Mayby Anet, can add an option to adjust the size.

Bigger is better.

I also like the big Mystic Dragon:)
