Guild Wars 2

I’m generally not the type of person that comes onto the forums to complain, especially since I tend to enjoy the updates given to this game. However this time I think I need to be another voice egging Anet back into sanity.

Why did you destroy the personal storyline?!

You removed an entire chapter near the end and then re-arranged the order of a good portion of the events in the later chapters! Why?! The personal story was one of my favorite things about this game! I don’t mind that the story is every 10 levels now, but that didn’t give you a reason to take content out and make the end of the story a jumbled mess!

Please fix this! I really don’t even want to play now.

Chris Whiteside (one of the developers) will come back to us with some feedback regarding the issues you described in your post. He said most likely on Monday (that would be tomorrow).

You’re definitely not the only one who’s upset about these weird PS-changes.

I just encountered some related oddness. A friend and I were on the armored guard bit before the patch, with the tanks, and today it skipped right to Victory or Death, and we never got to cleanse Orr with Trahearne. I guess because the part of the story we were on was moved to after the Cleansing of Orr, and mechanically it had to happen, but does this mean we can never play those story steps? It’d be a shame. I’ve seen it before, but my friend hasn’t.

Edit: Thinking on this further, likely it’s impossible to be shifted around in your personal story and fair enough, so just as feedback I’d love a way to replay it similar to how we can replay living story instances.
