Guild Wars 2

Does anyone else wish there were more checkpoints in the personal story missions? Some missions ask you to cover a sizable distance and if you die near the end, you gotta leg it from the other side of the map to get back to where you were. I don’t see the purpose of this. Is there any harm to adding 1 or 2 more checkpoints? The armor damage is enough incentive to keep from dieing. It feels weird having to run back through the deserted mission map. Not a major issue, just seems like something that could easily be remedied.

There’s a LOT they could easily remedy, but curiously they have yet to do so.

The story is so easy that the thought of walking back to battle is the only thing that prevents me from watching some tv series on the other PCs, and instead look at what I’m doing.
If I could throw myself at enemies from nearby checkpoints it would be very disappointing; if it was for me, death in story would mean wipe and reset.

But maybe for someone it’s hard so you can have checkpoints if you want.

I’m not asking for tons of checkpoints. just maybe 1 besides the mission starting point.
