Well, at least the new system seems to make the OP happy. I’m no longer concerned with all the arguments about the virtues and pitfalls of temporary content; I’m actually trying to speculate what ANet’s going to add. New Dynamic Events in existing zones? Probably. A brand new, level-80 zone similar to Southsun Cove? Likely (Maguuma-themed, of course). New dungeons and world bosses? Well, maybe a new dungeon path (I’m hoping for the whole thing), or reworks to existing ones. World bosses, there were a few in S1 (including Teq rework) so why not?

Basically, S1 with all content – especially rewards – being permanent and replayable. I’m fine with that.

GW2 would benefit in…

1) Doing more to distinguish individual Professions besides Race.
2) Revamping a clear and distinguishable cross-profession skill combination system.
3) Revamping the core DE and Heart Quest systems in PvE (always felt the core of this could have gone a lot further than Anet took it.)

True, although I’d prefer these get worked on on their own and not as part of the living story. Granted that’s doubtful since most dev efforts seems to go into Living Story, so if somethings going to be updated it would be done as part of the Living Story (i.e. EotM).

I’m sorry you can’t find the 2 mins it takes to log in to get the content for FREE. Sucks to be you. But with that said. I’ve not played WoW since cat. And if I started to play that again it would cost me around £60-70 pulse sub. So guild wars 2 is the cheaper option.

I’m sorry that you can’t look to see when a thread was posted….

Well looks like you where complaining for nothing then. Funny. I didn’t know I had to check every active thread for when it was stared. Sorry if you feel like you QQ for no good resin. Now would you like a hug?

Sorry mate, but you come in guns blazing about the Journal feature announced YESTERDAY when OP’s thread is a week old before we had any idea it was coming and this was a much needed feature.

If you’re even going to bother contributing to a forum, please check posting dates before you try to criticise/troll someone, because you just failed miserably with both your posts.

Nat, I’m glad your “prayers” were answered yesterday – it will be awesome to have the journal in-game to ensure replayability and let people who missed stuff get access to it. And it’s fully reasonable with the 200gem cost for a missed chapter, if you can’t be bothered (or are otherwise unavailable) to log for 1 minute in the space of 2 weeks, that’s about 10-15g to unlock it.

The lack of replayability of LS1 should be on Anet to make up to its players, so I sincerely hope Season 1 is added as a gesture of goodwill when they get it in the format so it fits with the new Story Journal.

Yeah Belial’s observation skills aren’t exactly top-notch. And I agree with you about the 200 gem cost. That’s pretty reasonable, especially if season 2 really does add up to an expansion’s worth of content. If for whatever reason I’m not able to log in during those 2 weeks, I don’t mind paying 200 gems. I’m just glad that I have the opportunity to do that now. And I can play it a year from now if I want to.

Belial missed a spot check. Must have rolled 1 or something.
