Guild Wars 2

I’m about ready to give up on Guild Wars 2.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the game- the story, the gameplay, etc.

I just can’t stand the amount of non-documented contradictory game changes.

For example:
I play ranger, and was very excited about the upcoming September Feature Pack.
Now, I’ve just been slapped in the face with the information that Frost Spirit is essentially useless now.

I couldn’t believe it, so I went and tested for myself: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Ranger-Frost-Spirit-bugged-w-maths/first#post4365014

ArenaNet is all too happy to announce cool balance changes, but something that breaks the class’s viability in dungeons? Sneak it in and hope it’s not noticed. (Okay, I’m sure that wasn’t the intention, but I can’t help but feel that)

Another example: The Fractured release.
Yay! Fractal weapon boxes! So much hype and excitement!
Oh wait, they don’t drop from the available Fractal levels.
Completely pointless.

Not to mention the myriad of “Serious Error” crashes that plague the game.
Everyone loves waiting an hour taxi-ing, and setting up for a world raid boss just to crash halfway through.
Is it pointless to send the error logs? Is anything being done about them?

What about the Hammer Range nerf in the Cliffside Fractal?
Oh, the hammer range is too long. Let’s prioritize that change instead of the BUG where the hammer never respawns, meaning you have to quit on your THIRD fractal.

I don’t know what’s going on. Maybe there’s an issue with internal communication between teams. But it’s really stretching my patience thin. This is ridiculous. There should not be this kind of instability and disorganization 2 years into the game.

I was looking forward to the feature pack. I thought that maybe things might be getting better. But they don’t seem to be. And it’s disappointing.
