Guild Wars 2

Nice little video this dude called Emmanuel made on how to get the most out off your guild wars 2 experience.

“This video shows how slowing down and playing dynamic events from start to finish can open up what will seem like a whole new game. Playing individual events can make the game seem boring with every event identical to the next except for minor details. Playing events as part of a chain though makes you part of a compelling story which will make you long to see what happens next.”

I thoroughly enjoyed playing DE’s to their conclusion until I ran into the plethora of broken ones in the higher level zones, granted they will be fixed over time but it did put a damper on release, had we only be able to test higher level areas during beta then overall the sentiments on launch would have been better for me personally.

Somehow i made this thread 3/4 times.. Feel free to clean them up mods.. sorry….

Ah i wouldnt know about the higher levels ones yet.. maybe they be fixed before i get there

Or, it makes the game a long, boring, repetitive grind for levels/currency.

Just saying.

I’m playing the game slow like the video this time around, it really is a different experience.

Which is great the first time. The third time running a DE it loses the appeal.

I didn’t know there was a different way to do them… I prefer to play the game the way it was meant to be played, as part of a long-term narrative, not spam-spam-spam-where’s-my-loot?

I love the events that have multiple parts. A lot of them start out so innocently by helping someone fix something, or whatever, and by the end you’re raiding another village, or something nearly epic. The one in Metrica Province that ends up spawning the Fire Elemental is one such quest, but there are hundreds of them around. They’re great!
