Aye, really nice. And it is more or less what people have been asking for while we wait for Living Story S2 (I would think that this might very well be tied into it in some way or form though).

Pretty much. Are the people that are complaining about Zephyr Sanctum returning the same people complaining about Living Story lacking permanent content? The way I see it, temporary content that returns from year to year (effectively permanent but time-limited access) is much more interesting.

People actually populate it consistently while its around, and it gives them a chance to make revisions visually and with dialogue content to make it continuously reflect the changes in the story since the last time it was around.

I knew it would come back eventually. They did say it would, and it was oh so obviously laid out as recurring content.

I don’t even care that there likely isn’t anything new. It’s just fricking fun! Not to mention, I didn’t have much of a chance to Liadri the last time and I’d like to actually try it.

Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.

I’ve been waiting for this myself, but if it’s just the same exact content in QG I will be a little disappointed. Hopefully there’s new and more difficult tiers, along with easy ones for casuals. Titles and mini’s for defeating the toughest of opponents, like Liadri.

This is content created last year, and as such, there has been plenty of time to add a few things to it. I doubt they decided two weeks ago to throw this together, so I’ve got (a bit of) faith.

i didn’t mind the dying via taking too long to kill a boss and falling to my death, but dying prematurely and no one rezzing me on the scaffold thing just so they didn’t have to wait longer for their turn was annoying.

it was really bad pre-subject/ dead-shot duncan nerf or whatever there names were when everyone was farming mad gold from them

I do not get how ppl can call it recycled when non temp. content that they been wanting is effectively recycled every time they redo non temp. content. That and this is how Anet been doing season holidays from day one in GW1.

As someone who has wanted these areas back for ages (actually I want them back permanently), I’m not complaining, but I can see the issue. Bringing these back is fantastic, but they’re being brought back instead of new content, rather than in addition to it. We’re in a bit of a dead period update wise, and there are a LOT of problems that need addressing since the last patch. Giving us content to play with while they work on stuff is a great move, but its still reasonable to be annoyed at the lack of new stuff.

It’d be like if they turned off Bloodtide Coast for a few months and then, in the middle of a period where there are lots of problems with the game and after weeks of no updates or even news of updates, they turn it back on. Obviously it’d be great to have Bloodtide Coast back, but treating it like a replacement for an update just doesn’t make sense. This is made even worse by the notion that Bloodtide would probably get turned off again after a few weeks.

Again, I’m very happy to see them come back, so this isn’t a complaint. But I can see why people would be underwhelmed.

Don’t misunderstand their sentiment. The fact that QG is returning in itself is something to be excited for. But at the same time, is there something wrong with wanting more bosses to test our skills? What of those that completed it? I want to further test my skills against new mechanics not found elsewhere.

Yes, we’re in a dead period; however, they’ve explained why we have this dead period. They are focused on China. It’s not like they aren’t giving us new content because they have none. We’ve been told we’ll see content once China launches. So it’s not like we’re in the dark and wonder what’s going on. This was sort to be expected. How in the world did people manage when they had to wait 18 to 24 months for expansions? We can’t even manage like 4 months….

Yes, we want content. Even I am excited for new content to play. However, for the most part people have simply been asking for ‘something to do.’ SAB, BotFW, QG. Busy work. They are giving us precisely what we asked for… something to keep us busy.

I can understand that people want content. I really can. However, people need to be a little less…needy? kitteny? entitled? I really don’t know what to call it/them, they just need to learn some patience.

Don’t look at me like that. Whatever you’ve heard, it’s probably not true.
