I don’t think difficulty is why few people run it and if the rewards weren’t behind such a terrible RNG wall more would run it.

Oh .. is there a game where i get the best rewards hanging around in Town and
RP’ing with my friends and show them my new outfits ? Please tell me the name.

I think there is one called Second Life that does that.

Real Life has that also. But you need to make sure you have rich parents first. It’s totally pay to win.

No matter how hard i grind in real life .. i will never get my Ferrari
And i’m not sure if open PvP there really would be a good choice o.O

EVERY MMO is awesome until it is released then its unfinished. A month after release it just sucks.
Best MMOs are the ones that never make it. Therefore Stargate Online wins.

I think, really what i’m bored with is that there is not much new stuff to do right now, other then events and the silverwaste. Not saying there is nothing to do just I have more fun doing new things. Though I will say I dI’d have fun in Verden Brink, and don’t know how many maps will be in the expansion, but I find working on achievements right now is keeping me busy.

Things I’ve done to combat the game getting stale:

Do a group event solo… it’s so good if you actually win.

Roll a new character and do an alternate path of the PS that you haven’t done before (requires correct answers when creating new char).

Run the entire length of Orr in your underwear without dying. (Goodness, I must be really bored)

Any silly thing you can’t remember ever doing… this one is hard. lol.

Revisit a JP and actually do it instead of just getting your friendly neighborhood spider-mesmer to port you up.

altho your thinking is clever and should be rewarded, it is not (but neither is anything really in this game). The simple truth for me, beyond doing things like JP just for the hell of it and exploration (as in things to do purely for fun and not the reward), is that i’d rather just play another game when it comes down to it, so i do. I LOVE the fighting system in this game but i feel like this game is a film ive watched 50 times already. Sure, the film is ace – but it aint changing and other films usually have had 5 sequels by now. idk…. metaphors.

I wasn’t trying to be clever… just saying what I do. I don’t expect anyone to agree with me and really don’t care. I’ve only put 2600 hours over 5 characters into playing this game in the last year and a half and haven’t done half the content there is to do (mostly because those parts don’t appeal to me or I lack the ability to do them).

For me, this game is easy enough in PvE that my limited physical abilities are enough to do most everything there. I can dabble in WvW and low end Fractals and avoid PvP and dungeons. I’ve learned how to get around well enough that I can actually start looking around at the scenery instead of constantly having to watch my back for the next thing trying to kill me… I’d like to be a tourist once in a while instead of a survivor… just climb a mountain or scale a cliff and just look at the view.

If there is another game like GW2 out there that I could actually play, I might consider it. But right now, GW2 is the only game in town for me.

srry, i think you misunderstood, i was applauding your efforts to revitalize how you play the game – finding things to do where others simply give up like myself. It is a shame that Anet haven’t added processes that reward what you do (a toggle option for example, similar to how skulls worked in halo, where your gear is equal to no gear for the run but you get extra rewards or gold, etc.)

LOL. of course I did. Read too fast and sometimes feel like I have a bulls-eye painted on any post I make. I shall now go back and search the nooks and crannies of the world for anything interesting. I hear there are some grape vines down is the south of Lornar’s Pass… I could use a snack.

Didn’t like them the first time I did em. I don’t know how any sane person can enjoy zerging around. The worst part are the leechers/afkers that just hit the mob and few times while everyone else does all the work and they still get rewarded. No thanks
