Guild Wars 2

Is there any reason we need to see everyone’s name, guild and title while in a squad?
Is there no better way to show an enemy is an enemy than to have their name, guild and title shown above their heads?
Why is there no option to remove damage numbers and only show the important things (block, evade, heal on hit, etc.)?

Why is this still an issue after five years?

And finally, what’s the truth about mods? I know the PR line but my gut tells me GWs was not codded to accommodate mods and we’re stuck with whatever developers or the higher ups chose not to do.

You are correct on the last side: it is absolutely not coded to accommodate “official” mods of any sort. Regardless of which came first, the design decision to not embrace them, or the code that makes them hard, the fact is that they are not part of GW2.
