Guild Wars 2

Everyone is on equal grounds. WvW, pvp, pve, etc. There is no stat gear so you never have the feeling of feeling really powerful. Therefore when you hit 80 you feel as though you really have nothing else to do to improve your character. Its a pretty cool game don’t get me wrong im happy with the content and stuff but I never feel like im working on stuff to improve my character performance. That to me is important in RPG type games whether its final fantasy or any game that has gear.

I don’t get your point. Are you saying a sub 80 player will have the same amout of utilities than a 80? Because if that’s the case, i remember my upleveled thief hitting for 180 backstab 2 years ago when i was leveling it. That’s less than 1/10 of what i do now. Ascended is already grindy enough for a “casual” game, gear tiers aren’t mandatory.

When you solo content that some group of 5 can’t even do, you do feel really powerful.

This isn’t exactly a game of vertical progression. They want you to have a good experience from the beginning to the end.
