Guild Wars 2

The bi-weekly update is missed. I barely login now just to get my dailies done and then I am gone. The living world kept GW2 living for me and now GW2 just feels empty.

I understand that Anet is working on an expansion, but did they have to pull their whole Living Story team for resources?

Living Story has turned into extended personal story which is fine , so why not develop NPC plots/growth using this personal story method? Like one episode could be helping Eir defend her homeland from Svanir? Logan being a tool and defending Jenna from assassins or centaurs? Instead they put everyone on a ship that flew off into maguuma only to be obliterated.

IMO the attack against mordremoth cutscene should have been included in the expansion and not as a teaser. Living Story should have kept continuing up until expansion release just to keep players logging in and not logging in just to get a daily login reward.

Well based on timing of the attacks increasing and the Pact forces getting further ahead they decided now was the time to attack, and being that they wanted Heart of the Maguuma to be something special they went ahead with a expansion pack.
I feel it is nearly impossible to continue the story without it being dragged on and on until HoT. For now either take a breather from the game and come back with HoT or just play a bit more casually.

That’s where a little spin off come in.
Either give us Sab season 3, or the whole journey of Rytlock being at the Mist!.

But what we’ll most likely get is bored to hell Season 3 WvW I bet.

I would rather have LA restored to be honest.

It`s a side story and as we apearently don`t get any Tengu (which are close to it) in the near future, as well as no Mordrem attack on LA (again), I doubt it will be destoryed right after being rebuild.

There are other tales they could tackle, but this is certainly a plot they could go for (aside from the obvious Sylvari war, they could get out of the way, before HoT comes out)

This isn’t the first time there’s been a lull in the 2 week update cycle, and it won’t be the last. There’s usually something new, and right now that’s the lunar festival. Pretty soon, something new will replace it, and we’ll have something else to enjoy or rant over, or both, as some people seem to enjoy ranting.

I also find it mildly ironic how you changed your mind from the last thread you started. From “does the living world suck” to “I miss living world!” I guess you never know a good thing until it’s gone.

i think give a rebuilding of la would be a good killer of time before the release of the exspansion plus im sick of seeing la get no love since the destruction. maybe a side piece where we fix the waypoints too

Season 2 wasn’t actually a bi-weekly update, the average time between two consecutive season 2 updates was 4 weeks (slightly shorter, though nowhere near 2 weeks, if you count seasonal events). That’s just for season 2 whcih was preceeded by a fairly long break if I recall corectly. Can’t remember the time between season 1 updates, so there may have been bi-weekly updates at some point but there haven’t been for a while now.

Well, there were 20 episodes of LS 1 (my favorite of the 2 seasons of LS since it was open world and not instanced and the story got to me, from refugees and esp. the destruction of Lions Arch) from January 2013 thru March 2014, which didn’t count a month of the first SAB in April, Bazaar of Four Winds, another SAB in Sept, Tequatl Rising, Blood and Madness for Halloween and Wintersday 2014. Yeah, it was temporary, but it certainly was fun.
