Guild Wars 2

Godzilla-robots, laser cannons, UFOs….does anyone else see this pattern?

The more and more people point out the immense amount of flaws in Scarlet’s character, it seems like the more ridiculous and impractical she becomes.

I saw someone else point out the fact that we have no information on how she gets her funds for these insanely huge and powerful machines she has. Although we still have nearly no information on anything about Scarlet, making her a very uninteresting character in my opinion.

I just kind of get the impression that Arena Net thinks that making things more big, more scary, and more complex is going her compensate for the lack of quality put into her character.

As Albert Einstein once said, “Any fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius-and a lot of courage-to move in the opposite direction.”

This whole LS to date has been over the top.
I’ll reserve judgement until I see what their plans are for Chapter 2.

Really what I’m complaining about here is the lore and story. My hopes of this game ever returning to the story plots and mysteries that I loved in Guild Wars is the only thing that keeps me playing. After all, I’m playing on college internet that just can’t handle the zerg style playing that this game seems to encourage.

Which she SOMEHOW managed to acquire and completely re-engineer before they were even revealed to anyone.

Everything she does is completely and utterly stupid.

I’m not a fan of all the tech stuff Scarlet brought into Tyria, but the main villain is an engineer, so it’s not surprising. Here’s hoping season 2 is full of fantasy filled stories that throw back to the Tyria of GW1.

I don’t mind the techy stuff. A giant watchwork knight stomping people is fun, in my book.

I agree. I think they have adopted a Bruckheimer/Bay approach to their content. I’m sorry, but UFOs!, giant lasers!, Transformianettes!! explosions! and ONE HUNDRED stampeding elephants!!!! For christ’s sake grow up already.

Write an interesting story, express it through a mix of solo, 5-man and 10-man instances, maybe add some open world activities, anything, but enough with the explosion and bases and ditch da’ dame.

Scarlet owns Black Lion TP hence the funds, doh
