Guild Wars 2

I have a dragon finisher. I have the legendary champion title. Now what do I get from PvP that I can’t get from PvE?

Competition? A challenge?

Competition? A challenge?

No one plays just for competition or challenge. That’s a good secondary motivation, the primary being loot/shinies, titles, prestige whatever.

Till now I had more ranks and finishers to aim for. But I have difficulty figuring out why exactly I should play. How do I benefit?

It’s very sad really since I like playing PvP. But…I can’t justify spending time on it unless it gives me something I can’t get anywhere else. Until Anet gives more progression for me, I don’t know why I should keep playing.

Anet.. I love you guys, but you’re insane. I’ve never seen an MMO make ‘maxing’ easier.. We are gamers, we need the carrot on the stick.

And no.. Not random loot chests with typical gear (although I love the track, don’t get me wrong), but end game.

Well, right now there is nothing but once they add seasons and ladders it should be quite cool.

Anet thinks it knows what’s best for us. We want long term carrots and they say “No – I think you should like this instead”.

It has no idea why people play MMO games.

I have to agree with this. At least before we had a goal we could work too, however now there’s really nothing. The back piece won’t take too long to get, maybe a week or so. I’m already 15 of 40 on it, and all I did was three tpvp matches and some hotjoins. So that leaves leaderboards, but we all know how that goes. They aren’t very accurate, also with no incentive to get to the top.

So you pretty much play pvp because you enjoy it, and I still do enjoy it. However seasons and ladders can’t come fast enough.
