Guild Wars 2

Don’t know if anyone is in the same situation, but I really just have a few people I enjoy playing with — to be honest, the most fun I have playing this game is just with my girlfriend. In all cases, I enjoy the quality of interaction more when playing with just one or two friends. It would be great to have some instanced, challenging content that can be tackled with two or three people.

I don’t know why every dungeon must adhere to exact balance for 5 (maybe there are some magic metrics that five man dungeons retain the player-base better), but I can’t imagine having a few dungeons designed for less people (or even more) would do anything but help a wider variety of players enjoy the end game.

The personal story accomplished this perfectly for a while, but as you know, it isn’t end game and tends to run out rather quickly.

Anyone else have some interest?

I dunno, most fights can actually be soloed given enough time. With that in mind, strive to be that good of a player and then carry yourself (and your girlfriend) to great victory.

I still think you’re better off finding an ultra casual guild that doesn’t really care if you represent all the time. It’s not just about dungeons. It’s about stuff like Guild Missions. It’s about stuff like finding that one tough group event and not being able to handle it. It’s about having someone there to just check to see where the last heart you’re missing might be.

There are lots of guilds that also have couples in them. Lots of people in guilds play by themselves, and come together when they feel like something a bit different.

Two man dungeons won’t allow you to see guild missions and some of them can be quite fun.

@esplen: Well, soloing or two-manning five man content really isn’t fun. It’s not that it can’t be done, it just isn’t very entertaining to try, especially repeatedly, and for such poor rewards given the effort.

@vayne: As for joining a super casual guild, I do realize that this is an option, and in truth, we are part of a few casual guilds right now. The complaint isn’t that there isn’t fun stuff to do with other people (there certainly is!), the complaint is that there isn’t much that’s fun, challenging, and rewarding to do when we want to play by ourselves.

You might want to look at this post (not the OP, but the post that I linked specifically).
