I just don’t understand why every episode of Pokemon have to be about Team Rocket trying to steal Pikachu.

After watching 820 episode of Pokemon, I tell myself I hope Team Rocket die already.

Why am I talking about Pokemon? Because that’s what I felt about Scarlet right now.

If you had paid any attention to what is going on with the Living Story at all, you would know that AN is wrapping up this season of the living World -i.e. Scarlet’s arc- with 4 big updates, the last of which will (probably) release on the 4th of march.

You should pay more attention to News instead of just hating.
And in case you don’t know, the LS platform for content delivery and teh LW concept are very unique things, and with great potential, and these things need TIME to GROW. Stop hating, and wait, watch it become better, these things can take YEARS to improve, and tbh, personally(as well as many that I know), I can see that ANet has improvement so much in the past year, and it’ll only improve from here on. LS will NEVER be a type of finished product with everything perfect, boxed, and set for delivery. If you play it expecting that, you’ll be dissapointed. It’s about watching the world change and being a part of something bigger. The kind of thing where in 2 years you can tell a new player about stuff he may not have lived, but you did, and show him the consequences of such things.
Scarlet may not be the best villain, but it is a great character to EXPERIMENT on and make sure they IMPROVE such a concept and make things better.

Note: I felt the need to capitalize certain words and make them bold due to the fact that for the past year many have done nothing more than whine and hate without even paying attention to the bigger picture, when ANet are tackling something NEW and UNIQUE, and need our constructive feedback as well as support, instead of hating without anything to base an argument on, and no Scarlet isn’t a good enough argument taking into account she, and the whole Season 1 of the LS are a mere experience.
Imagine a game, that changes every 2 weeks, just like the real world changes, with new quality content and little details that totally set it apart from any other game. That’s what ANet is trying to do. If you want to be a part of such a journey, great, if not, don’t play and WAIT until they get there.

Use all the bold and caps you want to express your opinion.

ANet kittened up Scarlet and has been trying to recover ever since. While you may defend the company, others of us will continue to point out what a colossal mistake the writers made.

If you say so

I’d rather the company hire writers with creativity.

Oooh, there’s a problem. Because ‘creative’ doesn’t translate necessarily to ‘good’. Much like “professional” doesn’t necessarily mean “good”.

See, I’d rather they hire writers who are comfortable working with them. Because if the writer isn’t comfortable, things won’t mesh right, and you get things like writers departing over personal issues with other employees rather than more serious issues.

Writing is an art.

So you watched the NASCARS rolling around the circle and you are telling me you are and as a car starts spinning out of control you are not going to watch the crash?

If I’m at the track and I see a crash start, I’m going over/through/around people for cover.

I am not sure what you mean here by “has been trying to recover ever since”. It is pretty obvious that the idea for the Scarlet story arc has been around for a while. For a start most of the dialogue was recorded months ago and the latest set of exposition is not a retro-fit, but rather an elaboration on the “What Scarlet Saw” story and what has happened since. What the writers have been trying to do is give us a series of seemingly random attacks and then show us how they were all working to the one end goal.

You may not like Scarlet as a personality. That is fair enough.
You may have no curiosity as to what deeper force is driving Scarlet’s actions. Well I certainly disagree here, but that again is fair enough.
You may be angry that there were no rocket dolyaks or a quaggan-centaur as hinted in Scarlet’s Lair. You have every right to be.

However, saying that the direction the story has taken is some sort of attempt to validate Scarlet is simply unsupportable. Anyway, it will all be over in March and ANet have been saying so for some time.

Well the one thing I still don’t like is that Flame and Frost didn’t amount to finally have the corresponding dragons to fight. Would have made sooo much sense, but nooo
I’m just saying if they start filling this world with dragons all of the sudden (compared to GW1) then why go “Dragons? Naaah, have some random girl be insane for the next year instead!”

I’ve said my piece about Scarlet already, but I’d just want to comment that this “experiment” has taken over a year when it ends in March. After that, there’s only a few months time to the game’s 2 year birthday. I’m pretty kitten worried about the lack of permanent, meaningful content they have managed to put out in 2 years time unless they’re gonna surprise me a lot in the coming 6 months.

But even still I will reserve my judgment after the current “arc” is over. They promise something exciting and world-changing, they better deliver.
