I am still wondering ever since the BETA was released, I can’t understand why they changed that beautiful login screen into a boring login whatever it is.

That was really GW login! I just felt that it was the same as GW1 back then… but nooooooo..

Is there any chance to change it back to this loginscreen again? It was beautiful and amazing..

The current one is much less appealing, however it gives them the chance to advertise their website and their blog posts. This is important to them as many of those advertise new features and, more importantly for them, advertise new gem store items to be bought.

I agree that the beta login in nicer and I liked it during beta, but I can’t see them ever going back to it unless they find a way to advertise on it as well. Just part of the business of gaming.

It’s better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

Well! They could have add the little ’’Announcements’’ blog as they did in GW1! Then we could have still the awesome login screen AND the announcements.

Yes please bring it back!!

I don’t mind having an announcement box that covers half of the screen, so long as the music and the dragon animation is still there, I miss that screen

Wow, somebody likes their exclamation marks and capital letters. No need for hostility here. In any case, I agree with you and think that would be a wonderful solution if they would implement it. My response was simply an attempt to reason out why they made the change, not to defend the change itself.
