Guild Wars 2

With no reward for the time invested. You don’t kill bosses for the fun of it. You kill them for the reward at the end. Thats the way EVERY MMO works. I take it you enjoy farming all of your materials for a legendary and then give them away at the end? Same difference really.

Miroe,

You’ve got it wrong mate.

First off, there aren’t enough people bothering to play. I just spent the last 30+ min trying to kill the adds for the stupid achievement. There’s not enough people playing to take down one boss let alone take ALL down at the same time. Further… from my understanding the reward for taking them down at once isn’t all that great either (for the time and effort involved).

We are going to play whats fun in this game. Hence why there’s no one in there killing the bosses. I highly doubt for your gigantic pedestal you’re putting yourself on that you’re in there doing anything?

To further your complaint about “breaking the economy”… I’d doubt SOME kind of reward is befitting those bosses and the time/energy/coordination to bring them down is going to “break the economy.” Apparently Anet is more worried about taking gold from players than giving us something for our time. The thing costs more in the way of gold to start than it gives back to the players.

I get its a “Rebuild Lion’s Arch” event… but not all of us are able to throw away gold at literally nothing. It reeks of “massive gold grab” from the players. This from a game that is already “grind-y” enough. Every patch that comes out it seems that its less and less give and more take.

Sorry you don’t feel the way the other 140+ of us in this thread do. You’re in the minority.

You guys aren’t missing much at all honestly.

“There are no tier materials, despite the fact that we are crying out for them to be lowered in price.”

Actually Anet is raising the prices of lower tiers pretty effectively by letting people dump them for tokens during the event. That new set of Ascended armor will probably cost 3x what it did before this. Thats unless you spend the long time to gather it yourself.

Agreed with most all of the above. Seriously Anet? After game issues (your game! NOT my computer) and this? I understand that its optional not to do things… but at the same time you WANT to do SOMETHING. You release great new content that no one has the patience to participate in because there’s no REWARD for the amount of effort!

After the first two “bosses” I figured I’d just finish it for the achievement. That is getting ridiculous as well and not worth the time.

Are you intentionally going the way of other MMO developers and just going to punish players? I’ve left several MMO’s because of the year(s) long grind to get things. I want to play a game, not make a life of it.
