Guild Wars 2

For me it was love at first sight. You were, and still are, simply gorgeous, but it was always about more than just the looks for me. You had depth, you had style, you were different, exciting, the more I learned about you the more I was hooked. And how we talked in the early days! You told me everything, your hopes, your ambitions, your plans for the future, you made me part of your world. I didn’t wait for release, I bought you as soon as I could, hoping that we’d have years together.

Now, a few months on, and you’ve changed. You barely say anything to me now and when you do, it’s usually something vaguely sarcastic. It’s like you almost resent me for some reason? And all of your plans for the future…so many empty promises, so many missed opportunities, it’s the little things that keep a relationship going and I just don’t know how you can just keep burying your head in the sand over it. Maybe I’m nagging too much, but I just want to see this relationship work, and I don’t feel like I’m getting anything from you. Maybe it’s because I’m not as exciting as the e-sport crowd, I know you want to be their new best friend but I convinced three of my mates to buy you – they left weeks ago, and think I’m crazy for wasting my time with you… but they didn’t see you in the early days, how much fun you were, how much you really seemed to care…

I just can’t go on like this, the continual hoping that things will improve, only to see nothing change. I will always have a place in my heart for you and wish you the best, but I think it’s the best thing for both of us if we part ways.

Always your friend,

The casual PvPer

beautiful:)

don’t leave

Nicely worded.

It really feels like they gave up indeed. Although now that I think of it, it doesn’t seem like they put much effort in the first place either…

Hahaha, this is going to be a looong week.

You two should arrange another meeting on the 15th, talk things over, and maybe rekindle the relationship.

Heh. Guild Wars 2 is the young, overdemanding princess who wants everything but is too young to know what that is. Then one day she’ll wake up and realize she lost out on a lot of opportunities when she was younger, due to her own arrogance and self-assuredness.

Luckily she will always be here for you, free to play whenever you’d like. Someone once told me in a harmonic manner, “You don’t know what you got… til it’s gooooooonnnnneeeeeee!”

very well put and can relate with it.

Perfectly said. If I may offer some relationship advise, perhaps consider not seeing each other for a few days, and then re-evaluating?

Speaking plainly, I do think things will get better. Their original plan was to begin by appealing to the casual PvPer and add paid/competitive features after launch. Unfortunately, they 1) didn’t predict how lame 8v8 would be, and 2) couldn’t decide if they should balance the top level or the bottom level.

You sir have something, very cool.

It feels like that.

How come I just can’t quit you, baby? There are moments when we’re together when I think this really could work, that maybe I’m being too harsh on you, every relationship has some trouble in the early days. But even when we try to make a good go of it, we just end up doing the same thing all the time, and the happy times are overshadowed by the repetition, the same old problems coming between us time and again, and the fact that despite having fun sometimes, I just don’t see where this relationship is going or what my efforts are actually getting me. You’re so disconnected, I love the fact that you treat everyone the same, but, well… I have a confession to make. I dated your equally hot sister, PvE, and she was fabulous. It was just a brief fling as she’s really not my type, but she gave me stuff I wanted, we moved our relationship on at just the right speed, she was attentive and friendly… and I’m not even all that into her…. In the end it just ended up hurting me more, as it just showed me how different you could be if you cared about me as much as she seems to.

You say you’ll change for the better next week, but you won’t say how – I know it’s because you don’t want any more empty promises and I appreciate that, but really, it’s a bit late for all that now. Some time off will do us good I think, and then maybe next week we’ll see where we can go together. I’ll probably end up treating you like you treat me, and just hook up now and then for the occasional good time, but it’ll never be the kind of relationship I was hoping for, and I’m definitely not buying you any gems, darling…
