Dear An-Net……………….

I guess you follow the forum and scratch your head how all of this is possible and maybe it gets out of control.

People writing poems how much GW2 sucks other discuss real ecconomy problems
and you guys try to figure out what went wrong and why everyone is upset…..

Can i advice going back to the roots ?

1st of all….. a video game is a video game.
It serves either or both of 2 purposes….

A- You enjoy the ride. You love the world you are in and live a live you can’t outside of your house.
B- You archive something you always wanted

The way GW2 is going both purposes are denied.

After creating the 2nd character you can’t enjoy the ride anymore. It’s the same story for all races and all have same abilities. Why even create different races.

Archiving is also impossible since everything requires a huge zerg of people and you as individual are incredible meaningless and there is almost no loot available.
Plus you guys heavily interfere with the economy.

Have you guys ever thought about going back to create a video game instead another
reality that copys the real world ????

I mean all people asked for was GW with better graphics and jumping.
You guys took all fun parts out and replaced it with reality.
Did you guys forget how awesome it was to dicover a new skill trainer and hope for new skills ?? Did you guys forget how awesome it was to hunt down a boss to steal his elite skill ??? The group cheering and screaming after they defeated the lava wurm without any zerking involved ????

Want any advices ?

- Stuff bought on Trade Post is account bound……… no TP flipping stock market.
- Change Traids to points that affect skills like GW1 did
-Finally bring back changeable skills and detach it from weapons.
-bring back monster necromancer and death penalty…. this alone will take care of zerker groups.

…………………. you say you don’t make money anymore ????
Sell expansions….. sell Elona….. sell Cantha or whatever else is in your mind.
Enjoy a happy comunity actually !!!!PLAYING!!!!! a game not living it and just
take a bath in millions of dollars you make from it.

You guys don’t have to be the most different game on the market.
It is already the best one.
It is time to get less stubborn and start communicating with the fans again.

Just bring back the Fun to Tyria and it’s all good

Imagine how much people would complain if GW2 was just GW1 with better graphics and jumping.

I assume lots of 12 year old kids who don’t know what efford or appreciation is ???
Having no Zombie storys or fighting the Borg anymore plus being forced to use
imagination and planing ahead wouldn’t help either……….

But isn’t this why they created angry Birds ??

There’s no reason to make a sequel if it’s going to be the same. Having fun in GW1 has nothing to do with jumping or graphics, which is still decent looking. Maybe you should go back and play GW1.

Wrong. The story is the same at a certain point only.

However, at the beginning, a Charr of the Blood Leigon will experience a different story to a Charr of the Ash Legion. Branching from that, a player who chooses Vigil will experience a different story to someone who picks Order of Whispers.

As for the skills, how is this different from any other games? Players have skills specific to their class and skills specific to their race. GW2 is no different in that regard.

Achieving is also impossible since everything requires a huge zerg of people and you as individual are incredible meaningless and there is almost no loot available.

Depends entirely what the person wants to achieve, and depends entirely on how the person goes about achieving.

While I agree that they could have included more features and mechanics from the original GW, it simply makes no sense to release an existing product with shinier graphics and a jump function; especially when that product is still around.

Not to mention ‘fun’ is subjective. There are additions to GW2 that I find ‘fun’ that weren’t existent in the original; DE’s (when not overcrowded) and Hearts, for example.

1. You’ve just taken what someone finds ‘fun’ out of the game.
2. I’m half and half on this. While I enjoyed how GW1 skills interacted with each other, I quite like the Trait system as well.
3. Agree on changable skills, disagree on detaching skills from weapons. Just give each weapon slot a pool of 2 – 3 skills. It gives each weapon a purpose, and also allows for easier balancing while keeping the depth.
4. I don’t play a Minion Master, so no opinion.

It is time to get less stubborn and start communicating with the fans again.

Because we know how well that turns out.

It wouldn’t be a problem if people understood “we aim to do this but it’s subject to change” =/= “we promise”.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————-

Actually i do that a a lot and quite enjoy it being not overcrowded.
the left over people are really nice and it’s not toxic like GW2 comunity.

I guess it has a lot to do with GW1 players are grown ups.
It’s not that i don’t like GW2 it’s the opposite i would like it not being dropped
like a hot potato by NC Soft because it doesn’t create money.

NC Soft like all others company’s who are enlisted at the stock market have to make quarter reports and announce it on their homepage.
Despite selling China NC Soft lost 13% profit on GW2.
Can you imaging it without China ????
The problem is when lots of fan boy kids are playing who don’t have access to daddys wallet and lots of people leaving who could spend money but don’t like a copy of real life.
it also makes me nervous when A-Net guys saying “it’s enough to pay our bills”
In economy it’s a red flag.

I do from time to time.

I play different games depending on what itch needs scratching.

…but don’t like a copy of real life.

Yup, just yesterday I was doing a jumping puzzle where I slipped and fell to my death; no problem though, I just spend a couple of quid and ressed and my nearest bus stop.

I was going back to it when suddenly a DE happened and a big dragon came out of the sky. All of a sudden I was surrounded by others and I was shooting fireballs at it.
