Guild Wars 2

So far with the changes, they have not been congruent and they do not make sense.

From past patches, it seems like Anet is making changes to make the gameplay slower, by reducing burst overall ( 100b, 100 nades ). It is shifting to Guild wars 2 to Cond wars 2: Cond was alredy heavy on previous meta, now it is even stronger.

So who are you listenning to do these changes? If you want to go e-sports, you need to listen to people who know the game. You are greatly reducing the skill-cap to play this game ( As you said, you want “newers” players to have an easier time ) , and making it less e-sports. By reducing burst dmg you took out from the game the need to react fast and dodge burst. You took out many ways to 100-0 players.

The fast paced game from before is being replaced by longer and longer team fights, boring matches to watch.

You should start listenning to people who understand the game, and stop listenning to anyone who screams louder if you want your game to be e-sports.
