I must agree, at least put it in the game as permanent content. If it was in party finder I think it would well used content.

In GW they had removed Team Arena (4v4 pvp ) and Hero Battles (1v1 pvp with 3 heroes on each team) and never put them back (they replaced them with Codex Arena, which however turned into a ghost town a couple of months in), so I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Gl though!

Bring SAB back! like most of us seriously give a kitten about it ’not blending in well with the current living story"…

and if u don’t want to make new levels atleast re-activate the old ones… it’s hardly any work to do that, right?

SAB would work very well as a game “activity”, it is not lore breaking or takes away the focus from the game.

I fully support SAB returning. Anet has done so much work on so many projects just to have them fade into obscurity for no explainable reason. They did the work to make content people love just to take it away. There’s no logic to it, seems mean spirited if anything. The game already has untold thousands of man hours in event scripts just sitting as memories in archived living world forums. Telling us SAB is going to remain inaccessible for the long term is not right.

You know, I was just re-watching that interview… and because I sort of know how interviews typically work I have to ask what was the point.

It is likely that those questions were provided beforehand to the people being interviewed before the actual recording, so really if your response to a question is “I can’t really say” or even worse “I can’t really say, but it doesn’t seem likely” what is the point of including them in the actual interview at all much less dancing around the question for a long while without really saying anything at all. I had to stop watching it the half way through because the answers really have absolutely no concrete content and the only conclusions that can be drawn from them can hardly be positive in any way.

You know when the first year they got lot of negativity with the overflowing amount of random festivals their statement was that they were building a core portfolio of reusable content like Dragon Bash, the Bazaar or SAB. If I recall correctly they even said something to the effect of when a particular LW release would need more time they could come back to these. Have they? We got Festival of the Four Winds, before S2 kick off proper but nothing since. Now they announced a mid season break with indeterminate length. Is this not the reason why they built that core portfolio of content precisely?

Yet, instead of something from that portfolio of content what we get is daily blogs about upcoming changes and nothing about what might be coming next in terms of something playable before September. Then they come out with an interview like this… really, you should have had some foresight nothing in that interview is something people want to hear or don’t otherwise already know.

They say things like these festivals or SAB don’t fit in the narrative structure of the new LW, which is the exact opposite of what you said they were for and why the first year was so celebration heavy. They were supposed to be for filling the gaps but now all we have is gaps and nothing to fill them because they are suddenly no longer fit for the purpose you yourself said they were intended for.

Ironically, what I wanted to end this post on is the words Give Me a Break. This is just completely out of whack. This is a slightly more generic post but really wouldn’t something like SAB have been a perfect fit for the gap. I can sort of understand why Dragon Bash wouldn’t have been appropriate but really, that pit is one you dug yourself by choosing such a specific theme for a celebration without thinking forward a bit.

I hope we get something fun for the anniversary at least, but if not SAB and not Queens Jubilee, since we just had the Crown Pavilion then what your supposed portfolio of reusable content has suddenly shrunk to almost nothingness.

If they could anticipate the need for a mid season break then including both the Crown Pavilion and the BoFW content from first year to the Festival of the Four Winds was a mistake because now all they have left is SAB, Dragon Bash, Wintersday and Halloween and three of those four have specific times of a year that they are most relevant in Tyria. You backed yourselves into a corner and are now saying you are not willing to make use of the only reusable content you have that is not in some way tied to the calender.

Props for a job well done….

I could care less about SAB tbh. It was just a filler event between episodes. WHo says it’s not coming next Tuesday? It will probably bring SAB and some other sort of Dragon bash celebration… stop all the drama pleaseee. Go play the game! Your server is losing in WvW! HELP IT OUT!

The last time they added the infinite token the participation dropped a lot (they confirmed it), so, considering that it’s a very popular feature I believe they need time to find some more ways to monetarize it and that’s why we will not see it implemented as a permanent content anytime soon. :/

You guys do realize how this may just make them NEVER bring it back. If they cave to this kind of “pressure” (not that it in any way matters to Anet), it sets a precedence they likely don’t want to make….

Just clean up the mess a week from now when this dies down and I’ll be sure to wave as I pass thru Rata Sum….good luck.
