There is no living world. What they claim living world to be is a living ever changing world and in a sense that is true. Content wise not so much! We Are the living world! If you think about it, it all makes sense. There is no new content only nerfs!
The nerfs are forcing the players out into the open world zerging, and farming mats making the world living! Without us the world is dead, Guild wars 2 is dead! They omitted certain truths about the world being living leading us to believe is content wise when really it is us.
With all the nerfs we have to go out of our comfort zones and new players are going to struggle to get onboard the zerg train to keep up and thats going to drive veterans and newbies alike to other games!
Kudos Anet! Kudos!
