Guild Wars 2

Too bad Mai wasn’t the real leader, if they swapped spots at least we could be done and over with Scarlet QQ. Besides that I like the dungeon thus far!

I hated Mai when she acted like a Scooby Doo villain (really anet? Really?) but at least she does not have a horrible background like Scarlet and I find her boss encounter much more entertaining than Scarlet. The dungeon is great but Scarlet herself is the poison that kept me from enjoying it.

You don’t actually encounter Scarlet in the dungeon. All you see are holograms of her which all happen to be pre-recorded. I don’t see the problem.

Scarlet’s boss encounter in the FUN House was forgettable. Her hologram make her more childish than she was before, and there the part where where she EASILY capture Caithe and brag about it like a child.

Arena Net wants us to hate Scarlet Briar the point we would torture her when we captured her. Now you see the development and the build up of tension, we are starting to really hate her just like how villains should be. This is actually interesting, people felt nothing when they were hunting down Zhaitan, now people really want to beat the kitten out of Scarlet. Once we have defeated Scarlet we would feel satisfied getting rid of her.

There is a different between hating a villain and hating a villain that is extremely toxic to the game lore, treating her like the BEST THING EVAR while remove current content of the game, and shoving her in every game content there is in this game. I would not be 100% satisfied when Scarlet dies because her history and her action is still in the game.

As far as I know, Arena Net is always hiding something up their sleeves. Who knows? Scarlet might have some information about how to deal and what’s the deal with Elder Dragons or even better that we could not imagine and speculate.

The stuff removed is as forgettable as can be. Give it a week, heck, even just a couple days, and people will forget who got replaced, and it wouldn’t make a difference lore wise, because it was just a random girl conjured out of nowhere, doing whatever, and leave no mark in the world.

Scarlet has already made a strong enough impression in the minds of players. Mission accomplished.

I don’t hate her. Hate is more than she deserves. I hold her in contempt.

What I hate, and I don’t think I’m alone here, is what she’s doing to the story. The Guild Wars franchise has a lot of potential and a lot of possible stories to tell, that people are interested in and want to see told, and the constant focus on Scarlet Mary Sue Briar is squandering that.
