Guild Wars 2

With all the QQing about how HoT is hard or about the big mastery timegate or the “400 hp for elite spec wtf” threads, i thought I’d throw in some positive thoughts.

The new maps are fantastic, i’ve never been into dungeons or fractals, as i always preferred open world pve, after all his is not supposed to be a lobby based rpg, and to me the HoT maps do that beautifully, there is a huge number of activities and exploration to do, and the fact that a lot of content is gated behind masteries makes it all the more thrilling to unlock that next mastery to reach that hero point or unlock that merchant that was previously inaccessible.

Yes the 400hp for elite specs is quite steep, but when I’m running with my spanking new revenant in a new map with new mechanics hunting down new items, it’s not so bad, i can always come later with my alts who will also have the masteries i unlocked and just do a hero point run, which won’t take as long as the revenant cuz they had some HPs beforehand.

I am mainly a dedicated wvwer, but the new expansion experience is not something i want to miss, and it’s not like i’m not gaining anything from it…

Also, hilarious and adorable skritts are hilarious and adorable.
