Guild Wars 2

Haven’t found a thread for this, but merge it if needed, kind moderator.

Let’s talk about the feature that was added this patch, the Story Journal. It’s great, but it needs some work.

What the journal allows us to do, is the ability to replay any chapter of a story that we have unlocked. That little annoying green star in the top right corner? We can now change what it says.

However, it has some flaws. Bugs aside, I want to discuss the feature/UI itself. When you choose to replay a chapter, I’m a little disappointed that we can’t choose which part of the chapter. It’s an all or nothing thing right now. Another little nuisance is that the journal “hides” the story text. As you go through the chapter, you keep a little diary that you can read later and remember what happened (which is well done, I see the feedback about having info/lore accessible ingame really helped out). However, during the replay, you don’t get to see all of it. It’s like your writing it again.

Any other things that can be said about this? Suggestions? I’d write a little more detailed post, but I’m on my phone.

Yeah, chapters are nice, but for achievement hunter/looking for certain story aspects (like the thing that happens after everybody leaves the room and you missed it) It would be highly appreciated if we could also choose the story step and do not have to replay the parts we “do not need”
