I never said anything about hidden potential—I am talking about depth. The level pro teams play at is much higher than people who just start out. If you were to measure that gap and called it depth, you have great depth. I mean, to each his own opinion. I just don’t appreciate you nor anyone else trying to call people out for trying to make this game into something better in their own threads. I am not going to all the threads you post in to just to say “NO, THIS GAME IS FINE THE WAY IT IS”. You can say whatever you want in your own thread and I won’t mind. So please, I don’t want to argue with you now. If you have nothing to say about caster improvement, carry on.

Pro teams all left this game, so its not really possible to measure.
You can make life a lil more comfortable for the fraction of the population that enjoys GW2 at the moment, but THAT IS IN NO WAY in GW2’s best interests… only yours.
I don’t think you’ve ever defended your point about depth in the game.
So not saying ‘I don’t want to waste my time again and again’ is a lie?
You posted once in my thread, I typed out tons of politely toned stuff for you, you never responded.

So its tough to take you seriously :’(

Ah, I do apologize garethh, so much negativity does make me jumpy (only me though! a lot of the other supporters are keeping quite the level-dead). I will not deny that the game has a lot to recover from, however I think every little bit counts. And it’s hard to say whether I’m self-fish or not. If I want new players to like spvp, am I being caring to help them? Or self-fish? Either way, I try, and it does make me happy to find people enjoying good games with each other, loss or win. I am not sure what GW2’s best interest is, I just know what we can do now with what we’ve got. It’s really hard to force Anet to pull a 180 and change a lot of things overnight. I’d rather just enjoy that game as it is. In terms of depth, I think it’s good for an action game—coming from fighting games, it’s all about knowing what combos exist, and different matchups. In this game, you have builds/team comps/counters/utilities/crowd control/small scale tactics, etc. It really depends on what you compare depth too. Compared to most fighters, it has a lot of depth (I compare to fighting games because that’s what I think of for action). If you compare it to LoL or DotA, it probably won’t be nearly as equal.

Except GW1 was hated by a large majority of the pvp and mmorpg community as an overcomplicated mess of a game. I can point to a larger portion of people who genuinely though that GW1’s overpowered specs, hilarious monk builds, ridiculously complicated fighting style, and time consuming fights was a main reason for it’s inability to attract the casual fan.

…

Unfortunately your perception is stuck on this perception that everyone agrees with you. Hopefully we can convince you shortly that you are misguided in your hatred.

Overcomplicated? Mess? ‘Hilarious’ monk builds? ‘Ridiculously complicated fighting style’?

It seems to me like you said very little of substance here. I could go through and address each and every point but it would be a waste of time.

I’m kind of disappointed to be honest. It would be nice for the very few people who actually interact directly with the developers to have a little more class than that.

Then zzz away, I’m sorry you can’t make friends to play with. Have fun with your super awesome real life, when I’m pretty sure I’m younger and making more cash than you. Thankfully you aren’t known in real life because you seem like kitten that no one would like : )

I remember when I was 14. I made posts like you do.

Just make sure you behave, I’d hate for mommy and daddy to stop giving you an allowance and take all that “cash” away from you.

I hit several nerves with you. It is nice to know you can’t have a solid conversation without having to throw in insults and jabs – I guess that is a good representation of the “top” competitive teams left in this game.

Try to not make it so easy to pick you apart next time

I remember when I could tell a baddie from a few posts. Oh that was today, thanks for the lesson learned. Haha, what a joke, this isn’t a solid conversation. You aren’t even on topic. I can’t have any conversation with someone who is ADD enough to keep on straying to infinitie amounts of woes. And to correct you, I am not in any way part of the top competitive team level. I am a casual tpvper. Yeah, you hit a nerve, but it’s always good to know that I’m in all ways better than you in the end. Welp. Have a good rest of the day. I need to make some more $$$ instead of having fun with you.

#politics, I am not going to lie. It’s hard to keep a level-head when you do a lot for the community and people just easily log in-write one post, and think they can change the world. Give Bas some slack on this bout.
