Please make a quick patch to disable this for people who actually want to play the game or do some roleplay.

Plenty of reasons listed above. I’m glad some people find it humorous or original, but for me and the people I play with, it got unnerving after the first minute.

Only for male. Because female get no love from Arenanet.

except the “sex” presented in GW2 is not sexy. Like, not at all. It’s just showing off skin in a totally unstylish manner. It’s not pretty, it’s as if it was put there for no other reason than to fill in a criteria.

New gem store armor skin gender difference

The new gem store armor skin looks pretty great, in fact, very good.

On male characters.

Because for some reason, the female character variants are not just a bit different.
They aren’t the same thing at all.

I would buy it in a heartbeat if it even remotely LOOKED like the male variant. Hell, I want my helmet with the winged decoration. I would REALLY like it my leg armor doesn’t have -skirts- instead of actual armor. I enjoy that female armor flashes a bit of skin, but not to the point of distorting the armor so it looks like its welded from scrap metal.

Rework them -PLEASE-. The male variant look so good, I can’t reasonably buy these set until the female variant look more like them.

Swapping for AC and Battery mode

This is a problem that has appeared just now, and I didn’t have this problem previously, or with any other game it seems. Opening GW2 past the character selection screen will cause my laptop to go between AC and battery mode non stop. And while selecting the power saver mode – does stop this, it makes the game so slow, it’s impossible to play.

Skin limited to PvP or PvE only

So, I am consulting the galleries of armor and I am completely shocked that some perfectly fine looking armor are only available for PvP only, or PvE only. What’s with that? We are all aware that GW2 endgame is less or more about getting the skins for armor and weapons we like. People go to great length to make a legendary for its mere look and prestige alone. So why would some armor be limited to one side of the game only? Especially those limited to PvP seems completely like a waste of ressource in epical proportion for people there typically don’t give much of a kitten about appearances generally. So yeah. More diversity always better, right.

I really like this boss....

I like how I haven’t beaten the boss yet I’ve been trying everyday, but always get stuck in underpopulated overflow, or underpopulated home server. I’m sure this is exactly what Arenanet was hoping this boss would all be about; a war of populating servers.

But now that people realized the rewards are pathetic – and even worse than normal dungeons, you can expect the shores for Tequatl to become deserted soon enough.

Good job Arenanet.

Too frustrating, Too many Rage quitters.

This is a game, where not everyone spend their entire life in front of a screen trying to figure out how to pass a dungeon that’s bugged – thus, never properly tested by the development team. It doesn’t even give you a sizeable reward – the reward is pathetic. You could spend time doing other dungeons, and you’d earn far more. So how do they intend to sell out this dungeon? For the miniature Scarlet thing? She’s the ugliest sylvari in game bloody hell.

And to think people actually paid for this game. Shouldn’t this be a free to play MMO by now? GW2 standards are about just as low, right now.

Scarlet is the BEST villain in GW2

The unfortunate truth, that the only vilain that did something in this game, is also a complete plagiarism from a child comic book, is depressing.

How much Arenanet are paying their storyboard staff?

Just kill Scarlet and be done with it please.

Know who ought be burning on a pole? The people who even thought (and I don’t even want to use “thought” because that’d be too much credit for their part, stealing the whole concept from somewhere else too obvious I won’t even mention) of that character.

Best and Worst of GW2 Releases - Year 1

in Living World

Posted by: Alkyone.7983

Alkyone.7983

Halloween stuffs were probably the best release. Nice skins, good variety of activities.
Aetherblade was okay as well, I guess. For the most part it was doable, had nice rewards.

Fractal of the mist is -plain stupid-, but we have no choice if we want to get ascended items. There is no background story whatsoever to support or even remotely explain what the hell is that thing. The path are very poorly balanced with some taking forever while others are far easier.

Molten Alliance thing was just plain confused, uninteresting in a whole.

Super Adventure Box was excessively uninteresting. What is the point of integrating Runescape in GW2? Are we running that much out of ideas on what to do? Is it because it’s easier to make mobs and maps out of cubes?

Tequatl: aside that it is impossible to beat, impossible to get on your own server all the time, and generally uninteresting after the first few people who beat it realized the loots were less than stellar for the huge waste of time and effort they combined, it was frankly uninteresting as well. Looking for little clues spread all over an entire map. Yay.

Twilight Assault: Following up with the same disaster that made Tequatl release infamous, we now have an insanely hard dungeon, with casual rewards completely unworthy of our efforts. Way to go Arenanet, not learning anything from your experiences.

Dungeon is way too hard.

Please stop releasing dungeon/event that are incredibly hard and gives no interesting reward whatsoever. Stop releasing bugged content that are untested, ultra hard content that the dev team probably dont even test either.

I suggest you put a poll on how people like your events thus far. I’m sure it won’t rate well. Just the character of Scarlet alone is rating very poorly as far as originality goes. Hire a new development team with people that actually have good ideas and test their stuffs out while giving out interesting reward instead of crapping on your customers.

What Eternity Should Look Like

I am surprised no staff has answered to this topic yet. Eternity is in urgent need of a redesign, and this proposal is by far, one of the best I’ve seen. If anything, I’d just wish all three greatsword blades were either made longer, or thinner. Right now they look rather “fat”.

Female Greatsword Animation

It’s really not much of an issue, as such, it’s really just an aesthetic suggestion.
Thing is, the way a female character hold the greatsword just feels weak. In comparison, male characters will hold their sword at the ready, upright – whereas female seems on the verge to just, let it drag on the ground. I mean, alright, the argument that female are physically weaker than male in general, sure. But what’s the point of this “pseudo realism” argument, in a game where female players have just the same abilities as their male counterpart? Can’t they hold their sword in a more proper manner?

Mount vs Waypoint

Waypoint is ridiculous. If we used waypoint, why even bother with all the fancy fantasy world setting? It’s got no reason to be aside to be an excuse to not implement mounts. They make no sense whatsoever in the lore – assuming someone even take the lore seriously at Arenanet, which seems doubtful considering the amount of contradictory stuffs.

Still. I would be infinitely grateful if mounts were implemented instead of annoying, unstable waypoints.
