HoT is Great
New – doesnt mean good. We got new content in HoT – yep. But this… content doesnt looks good.
And the strangest thing that the company began to destroy the things that made the GW2 classic – so popular. Looks like developers… just went crazy.

It doesn’t look good to you perhaps, but to me it has been great so far. I am well aware that new doesn’t equate to good, but guess what? New doesn’t equate to bad either. And just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean it’s bad anymore than because I do like it means it’s good. I have found it extremely enjoyable. If you haven’t, that’s okay, but again that doesn’t mean it’s bad it just means I like it and you dont. There are no black and white facts here, it’s like me saying I prefer chocolate ice cream and you like vanilla ice cream, doesn’t mean that the chocolate suc and the vanilla is great. It’s all a matter of opinion and taste.

I love it too, i’m having heaps of fun. Everything in the HoT maps is a vast improvement from the base game imo. The areas are gorgeous and interesting, the events are fun, the story is good(it’s just in another legue compared to the orignal personal story, jesus christ that was bad) and most of all, you can’t just sit on your keyboard and win anymore.
Hell in base tyria i can go afk in a spot with my ranger and the pet will kill mobs for me
I’m having a great time so far. I get such a smirk when I watch a group of players getting rolled over and squashed by a giant dinosaur hero challenge when I beat it solo. (Died 2 times trying) I was laughing and getting teary eyed in parts of the story. I even got so panicked during one mission when I was being chased by a giant Modrem that I jumped off a cliff and died. Once I had respawned I remembered that I had a glider and was just being silly. Good times.
I really think they delivered exactly what they said they would. Challenging content. The old zones (Orr included) feel like a cakewalk now.
Shhh man you are not allowed to say that you enjoy the game in these forums.
3 years ago annet says: guys! you dont need farm or grind anything! you can play what you like to play.
(and this was realy good)
Now they says: oh.. sorry folks we changed our minds. Now YOU MUST farm and you must doing stupid jumping puzzles.
It’s not " a matter of opinion and taste". IT"S TOTALY NOT.

Really now… I thought it was just the opposite. Someone starts a post saying they have issues with, and/or dislike HOT, and before they can hit Reply, the White Knights come charging in to insult the poor fella.

Yeah, actually it is. You see, I’m enjoying the game, and you’re trying to tell me that I’m not allowed to enjoy the game. That seems a little arrogant. I’m enjoying the game and I think it’s great. How could you tell me that my experience is wrong? Am I having bad wrong fun?
Also, there’s a big difference between progressing your character and having grind. Every expansion in every MMO in existence just about with perhaps a couple of exceptions have added vertical levels and vertical gear in order for your character to improve. That wasn’t considered a grind either necessarily, because the idea of advancing your character is a concept that very nearly every RPG of any kind in existence has followed.
However, in this case, Guild Wars 2 is presenting horizontal instead of vertical progression so you don’t have to grind out any new gear that wasn’t already available in the core game. Just have to get some new talents, but that’s all part of horizontal progression. And for that matter, they said it from day one of the expansion set announcement that there was going to be horizontal progression. That means, by the word progression, that you were going to have to advance your character a little more. This should not have come as a surprise to anyone.

I don’t have a problem with people who say they aren’t happy with the expansion, my problem comes about when they are destructively critical and coming off as trolls, if they just said you know I don’t like this expansion because of XYZ and I don’t think it’s for me, I’d be okay with it but instead what they do is come in with things like ArenaNet lied to us again, or this expansion is total garbage. It’s like they are intentionally trying to troll those of us who like the expansion, and come off as rude and insulting.
And yes, then the White Nights come in because they perceive in attack. It was so hard for people to come in and say you know, hope you guys enjoy the game, this just isn’t for me, I don’t find it appealing to me. And I’d say okay, sorry to hear that, good luck with whatever game you decide to play next but that’s not what happens. by the same token, I sit here and say the game is great, and first reply I get I’ve been told that I’m wrong, when I tried to make it clear I was specifically referring it to my enjoyment of the game rather than a statement of fact.
New content is amazing. If I wasn’t at work, I’d be in game instead of posting here, lol.

And that also is your personal opinion. My opinion is every bit as valid as yours, and your opinion is not fact.
