What's missing?
Lack of diversity?
Seriously?
Like with the original GW, we got almost every enviroment imaginable right now. From frost to desert. From jungle to mountains.
That being said, core Tyria has the problem of being too flat if anyhing. After playing through the levels of HoT, it is quite noticeable and only few parts stick out.
While it makes sense for a lot of these flat places, there is certainly room for some more complex maps in the future.
Mountains need to be more like mountains and not just some steep stones in the way.
For example, ice structures throughout Jormags areas, that we can climb, that crumble and have to traverse (use SAB mechanics, let us hate ice )
On topic
I don`t get these topics in general.
It is clear that they are struggling and all people do is crying for more more more.
More content, more this, more that.
Yes, they need to get their priorities straight and I hope they are doing it right now.
They had HoT, they had half a year where they appeaerently noticed: oh kitten, this i not working
They need to get back to their roots and thats it.
Oh and they wanted open world (zerg) content from day one. It`s not something they started favour now. They just got in the direction where they are able to facilitate more or less “rewarding” content.
They are learning.
They got some good ones with the Worldboss reworks and the maguuma wastes, but went too far with HoT.
Even the LS1 stuff was great for the most part and again, that was just them testing things for the first time.
It happens, cut them some slack, they didn`t really do much so far. However what they did took lots of time
I also like the maps a lot but there is something annoying me about it…after nearly 4 years of playing gw2 (yes really 4 years bcs i played in the beta too)….i learned most mechanic and i can fight not bad..
…so with my favorite build everything is too easy for me (if the map is under lvl 70)…also the mobs in central tyria became less rewarding ..the drop rate is so horrible sometimes (1 items per 20-30 monster :/ )…i wish there was a way to go back to these maps with stronger monster and better loot
And LS1 was the best ever !!!
Well, the devs do whatever they want. Suggestions are rarely ever considered but acknowledged, not implemented. That’s probably what’s holding this game back. It’s their game anyway so I guess that’s somewhat fair.
Lack of diversity?

Yes.
