Guild Wars 2

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed the personal story is a complete mess since the last patch. If you have a character that has completed it, check out their journal and you will notice the order of some missions, specifically the cursed shore ones, are in the wrong chapter. The result of this is that, in running a newer character of mine through the story, I skipped from “The Steel Tide” to “Victory or Death.” There was no cleansing of Orr as I have done a number of times before on other characters. What?? Maybe this is just me, and it’s a bug. Otherwise it means new players will be denied the experience of those stories. Gj.

Everyone is wondering about this.

Anet tried defending it… Unclear if they’ll actually fix it but we were told someone’s looking into the story. I’d say don’t touch it till we have word back

This is strange, what is the reasoning behind doing this?

Trehearne was getting too much attention before is the defense I keep getting… which is pathetic

Anet: Okay yeah we agree let’s just totally scramble the order of events in chapter 7 and 8 to fix it

Wow okay. First, thanks for making me aware of all this. Second…kitten this. I have never been too upset with the changes Anet has made to this game I truly enjoy, but this blows my mind. Why why why? Anet why you you do something so absolutely ridiculous. Are you actively trying to ruin your own game? If a bunch of people complained about Trahearne, so what? You had created a unique and interesting story. Sure somethings didn’t work out as well as you had hoped, but that’s how we learn. As it stands the story is a mess. Please correct this, and salvage some self respect and pride for the product you initially created. We can be the “hero” in the stories yet to come.

We still don’t know if it was fully intentional (especially the removal of the “greatest fear” part). All we know is that Chris Whiteside acknowledged that a great deal of people are upset about it and he’s looking into it on “Monday or maybe later”. That being said, I’m confident we will get an offical statement concerning the weird PS-changes.
