I spend most of my time in PvP. Previously, I had no problem finishing my dailies just by playing enough matches.
Ever since the update to dailies, I’ve been forced to either skip some days or do some menial tasks in PvE or WvW (like capping a ruin in WvW or harvesting some node in some random location on the map) because I only like playing two or three classes in PvP.

If Anet’s aim has been to encourage players to play different contents, then it fails to do so because it doesn’t encourage me to play PvE or WvW! It just forces me to bother doing something that I don’t enjoy just to get the daily done.
If their aim has been to encourage players to play different classes, then it fails to do that as well. Because:
A. Playing a class that you don’t like is counter-productive
B. It usually causes an increased number of those classes in PvP matches.
C. It only favors those who play multiple classes.

To me, the new choice of dailies (at least for PvP) has been worsened compared to the previous model which never forced me to do something I didn’t enjoy.

I agree with pretty much the whole thing verbatim.
“Go do some menial boring task in a game mode you don’t really use, so you don’t have to play something you’re kitten at and hate. We think you’d prefer this over ‘having to’ playing more than 1 game.”

yup . . . now i never have a daily, for real i don’t know what the kitten were they thinking.

Also because of this we see a lot of people lvl 3 playing ranked with a profession they barelly use before destroying the balance of the matches.

Well played Anet . . . keep like this i see E-sports knocking the door.

You know, the whole point of this system is that you get the same daily reward you got under the old system just by logging in. The new system gives extra rewards for people who wish to put in the extra effort for the extra rewards.

And PvP has it easy compared to PvE, you can pretty much get 2 PvP dailies done just by playing the game. In PvE, you can’t even guarentee getting a single daily without doing things you wouldn’t otherwise be doing.

And if getting the 10AP is what matters to you, AP means nothing to pure PvPers anyway…

Actually it does. It progresses you toward achievement rewards which in turn give you gold, gems and skins.
Being a PvPer doesn’t mean that you don’t care at all about gold and rewards, otherwise, the reward tracks would be totally useless.

That said, my argument was mostly about what the dailies encourage/fail to encourage rather than the magnitude of its rewards.
