Why do I have to party up for the Story?
wait… one step back..
“why can I solo all my personal story?”
(I loved how in GW1 you had to team up to advance though next mission.. and I am really missing that aspect now)

You didn’t, though. It was always possible to complete GW1 solo. You can’t (realistically) even duo the last stage of GW2. I’m really annoyed about that.

well I couldnt grins … certainly not before the heroes were there…
and I am not at the very last stage if GW2 yet… so will see – but so far I am disappointed at being able to do it all “alone” but I guess such is the nature of a personal story

Well not solo every quest because some of them you are given NPC teammates, in GW1 you could solo every mission with hero’s…
There’s only 1 stage where you need to have someone else to help you throw the boulders. (the mansion something in orr). I’m pretty near the end of my PS, but i’m at the part where there are endless spawn and idk how to progress honestly x.x might have to bring in a few guildies to help sometime soon :P
I soloed my personal story without problems with a warrior and a condition’s based ranger ._.
I don’t know where you see the difficult.
EDIT: Oh, and on story modes, I did it on duo with a friend, so… Isn’t so difficult.

yes, I can totally understand your pain and I think having to team up for 2 hours in your entire game time in GW2 for completing the story arc is a gargantuan outrage. Those blackguards at the game design department, curses! There a lines that are not meant to be crossed and this aggression will not stand!

You got past the last quest in personal story even though the beginning of it requires 2 people because there are 2 pressure plates that have to be stood on at the SAME TIME to fill a gauge. A gauge which depletes faster than it fills if one person gets off it?
Okay ._.
I guess they figure, by the time you are at the end of your story, you have probably made a couple friends here and there.

You missed the point, I don’t care how much time it takes, I just don’t want to play with other people in MY story and I especially don’t like playing SM Dungeons if I’m not leader because then it isn’t MY story.

Yes because this game is very social when it comes to PvE (not).
How much communication do you see when there are events? none.

Ah, you are refering Arah. Man, that’s a dungeon, even if it is story or not xD
I did it on duo with a friend, btw. Not so difficult. I mean, if you know someone, tell him “Hey, man, let’s do this!” and that’s all. Dungeon are suposed to Coo-op, not to be soloable. For this, go to a single player RPG. NPC’s are just that, NPC’s (Excepto destiny’s edge), and chars are heroes, but even the heroes needs help. Have you seen on any book/movie a hero who could do ANYTHING alone? Nope :P

We have Destiny’s Edge helping us in Arah.
EDIT: Also, could you tell me how you cleared Arah with just 2 people? I’m very curious, because I can’t find anyone willing to do this quest. Thx
Well not solo every quest because some of them you are given NPC teammates, in GW1 you could solo every mission with hero’s…
Heroes were not added until Nightfall. And even so you could only use three of them until years later.

Yeah, but Destiny’s Edge has a terrible AI XD
BTW, I cleared Arah with a friend because we did it more times helping guildies and we knew all steps from the dungeon, so we were prepared. We died a couple of times, yes, but it isn’t so difficult that we can’t beat. The worst part is the little ship deffense, after clearing Arah’s landing zone because the lieutenants spawns too much minions

But you had the henchies though, even though most of them kinda sucked. Thats how I did most of the game. Only on some of the harder missions did I try to find a group. The heroes were/are definitely better, but henchies had their day too.
I’m not sure I like having to try to find other people to finish the story in GW2. Those that start(ed) late, or are on at a time when not many other people are on, (or don’t have any friends that can help) are kinda screwed from completing the story.
Please give us a keyring…
Why do I have to party up for the Story?
Because it’s a multiplayer.
And it’s gracious enough to require you to party up for one quest only. If you’re looking for a singleplayer game where you kill old dragons all on your own, it’s called Skyrim and costs even less than GW2. Maybe you can swap it at the store and get a refund?
Because the whole Story is about not being able to take on the dragaon alone and requiring all of Tiraia as well as building alliances to team up with to stop the dragaon???
With some effort you can probably solo Arah SM.
Yes it will be hard, yes it will take hours, but it’s probably possible.
Because it’s a MMO. Grouping is inherit of it. Specially at the grand finalle where you’ll face the ultimate evil.

That doesn’t explain why it’s in a 5-man dungeon and not open-world PvE. It’s sad really – Orr is the only region of the game where the DE’s set up the expectation of an epic dragon battle (when they’re functioning, of course), but then you’re just left hanging at the door of a blasted dungeon, with LFG filling the chat box.
Dude, if you wanted to play a single player game then why are you on an MMO?
It IS kinda weird that you spend 80 levels getting all races, factions and some tribes together to face the big bad reptile of death when in the end you’re stuck on finding 4 players to do the job with. I understand how frustrating it is to play 99% of a game in a casual, independant way to discover that you can’t finish the very last part just because you fail to find a group willing to do Arah story mode with you.
Why play MMORPGs if you don’t wnt to group? They are massively multiplayer for a reason. Tons of single player games out there for people who only want to solo – stop contributing to diluting MMORPGs if you don’t really want to play them.

I play for the story and the world. Your attitude towards players who play for a different reason than you is horrid. I would love to play this game with friends but they have no intrest in this game. If you think i should make new friends in game, then I ask, why would I want friends with an attitude like yours?

Correction: you play for the world and story in AN MMO. Thats means there will be multiplayer aspect in that game. If you wan to see the world and story in genre, respect the rules that come with it.
Its like complaining about how super mario doesnt have multiplYer, or how a racing game forces you to race.
If you dont want to group or party in games, dont touch a mmo. If you like he story, suck it up like a man instead of complaining why a mmorpg requires you to play with other people.
Maybe it’s not that personal…
~ nothing is constant but change~
Currently: 3619 kills ~ all for Piken Square
Maybe the final mission is ArenaNet’s way of introducing players to dungeons. Or… perhaps they wanted the last mission to be as epic as possible. Too bad Arah is so unfinished, though.
Maybe they figured by the time you hit 80 you would have “friends” or maybe guildies or maybe just some people you met along the way to help you on your adventures? I mean if your playing an MMO you may be expected to play with other actual people every once in awhile, and if you don’t like doing so, maybe you should rethink your choice of genre?
“The best defense is a strong offense.”
Dude, if you wanted to play a single player game then why are you on an MMO?
So because I want to play only ONE part of the game (my personal story) alone, you presume I want to play the ENTIRE game alone?
