Guild Wars 2

One of the most laziest thing I have EVER. I mean EVER saw. The patch itself to the city. Its awesome. It leaves you wanting more.

But when you are doing the personal story for the first time or for the <insert number here> times and when the living story invades into the story. It looks like the most laziest mess ever. It’s like a cross between “WTF” I mean seriously, devs?

You couldn’t either make Lions Arch look like how it was before Scarlet blew <-beep-> up or at least ab-lib the story to make the “return” of Destiny’s Edge more sense. Kids playing “Destiny’s Edge” while things are falling down, <beep> is burning, the whole city looks like a hot effing mess and then there is MIASMA in the air? And then you have random citizens standing around, doing nothing. Acting like it’s literally “Another day in the neighborhood” and “What’s a Scarlet?” Or “What’s this big thing drilling into Old LA?” kitten Dur.

I’m sorry..eh-squeeze me a moment. Isn’t the title of the patch “Escape from Lions Arch.” I know this Living Story is POST Zhaitan. Zhaitan is dead.

But, the personal story should AT LEAST either AGAIN reflect the prior Lions Arch or do something to make the personal story…I dunno…make sense?

I’m not sure if you care much..about anyone re-doing their personal story. Or doing it for the first time (Since you advertise so clearly to buy Guild Wars 2 at the end of each trailer for newbie players) . Stop..looking LAZY! Or being lazy.

Go through the personal story…and ask yourself on the level 30 mission of the reunion of Destiny’s Edge. The whole Lions Arch looking like a war zone do any of these make sense?

If it does…feel free to ignore this post/rant. And laugh yer way to the bank.

If it doesn’t. Review it, revise it. Re-edit. Please. Thank you.

Sincerely,
Durmand Priory Scholar

I was pretty disappointed when I read about this in another thread. I would have assumed they’d have an old LA map to load up for these instances, but nope. I am hoping it wasn’t intentional as there seems to be an especially large number of bugs in this patch.

Whole heartedly agree with you. I haven’t personally went to check out PS during this patch but I have heard this a few times.

It’s disheartening. Preceding the patch there was a thread regarding the Hearts, DEs, Mail, and NPC chatter regarding LA. I don’t believe these have been addressed or altered to reflect the changed state of the city either.

I was in Kraitbane Haven today and heard some Lionguard just talking about the same lines they always do (something about investing in the city being smart). Above anything, attention to small details will really give their “living world” a living feeling.

Right now, events like this seem very ‘frozen in time’ with no real impact. Yes, the city is burning. But there is no impact to the world.
