Guild Wars 2

It is true what they say, people will find any small detail, any little dent, any small spec to complain about and rally on like its a holy war while making themselves look like they are the victims.

Lets analyze it logically.

Problem: Players requested something new because by then a large number of the population already had exotic gear, through dungeon runs or through other means.

Solution: Add new tier of gear.

Complain: new update completely destroys the manifesto of the game because now you have to hunt for ascendant gear which is better than exotic.

You can obviously see which of these statements is illogical. If I were to analyze it, I would have to say that people whom complain its because they do not wish to “Work” to get this new gear, they dont even know how you acquire it and are already complaining.

I really don’t see how this is somehow a conspiracy against the manifesto, if anything it injects new life into the game until a larger add on can be finished.

Heck I even saw someone complain about dungeon items being soulbound, what that person failed to realize is that the tokens are account bound, meaning, if you have an alt, you can use you main to get tokens and then the alt can use them for gear.

I’m an old timer, I’ve played almost every mmorpg there has been, and guild wars 2 its one of the most fun experiences I’ve had mainly because it does not feels like a chore in anything it does. It is not perfect, it is still new, but its one of the best experiences out there.

I’m sure the more reasonable players wont even bother to read this and will simply sigh and pass on, but I have some time on my hands and I found it somewhat interesting how people are foaming like rabid dogs and calling in a holy crusade against something they will just keep playing anyway, without any actual grounds in reality.

It is a psychological reality that people will always be afraid of change and things which are new, but some people take it to illogical extremes.
