Cliffy can you explain why these games are in development for almost a decade and release with no end-game content? Would love to know. They have all the time in the world to work on these things. But we all know by now, they already have the content made..they just release it in 3 months and call it “DLC” like COD does and force you to pay for it. But in 3 months time I can almost certainly guarantee more than %50 of the population on GW2 will die out. Quote me on that and I’ll send you 10 bucks paypal if it doesn’t happen. I already called it on TERA dying out…that game is beyond dead. I’m level 69, the only one out of my group of friends to get this high as most of them already quit. And none of us think alike as we all have very different opinions on the game and what we like and dislike. 7 out of 8 of us quit already. The last one plays solo and only plays because they have nothing better to do but will probably quit soon. I had 3 friends ask me what the game was like and if they should buy it, I told them don’t waste their money and stick to whatever game they play currently.
Not to be rude but can a developer please develop end game content after 8 years of development? Seriously..Stop with the pretty graphics and add real gameplay value.
Name one game that came out with a large amount of end game pve content in the first 6 months. That was my point and why I’m saying it happens over and over and over again with each new game’s release. It’s simple business economics….they dump so much money into the development of a game but have to eventually get return on their investment so it gets released as more stuff is being developed. These companies do not have an endless supply of cash and need the retail sales to bolster more development at some point. Of course, they have expansions in development but that doesnt mean it’s completed. People constantly compare games that have been released and they have played for years to a newly released game thinking it can match up on content and it never will….
If they keep 50% of the initial population then that is a success because most gamers nowadays jump from game to game with short attention spans anyway. I didnt play GW1 but I came in fully knowing that the end game focus would be WvW moreso than anything else and not end game PVE content. I have a social life and a job so I know it will take me a while to hit end game as it will for many average gamers. This mentality of leveling as quickly to end game only to find out there isnt a ton of things to do is common with every single game that is released nowadays…you think people would learn by now or research a game more before dumping in money they will only complain about.
When WoW came out there was little or no competition out there, there was not battlegrounds, and little to no end game dungeons (short ones too). People kept playing and didnt quit because there wasnt a lot of other options then. World random pvp was what everyone did that rushed to max level. WoW made a boatload of money and dumped it into expansion after expansion with more and more end game content.
I’m referencing this because everyone fails to realize there will not be a ton of end game pve content at any games release yet everytime a new game comes out….people flock to it, rush to max level, and complain there isnt enough to do. These things take time and may eventually come but as some people pointed out, this game was really created more as a focus around WvW
Not to be rude but can you name one game that was out 3 weeks and had good end game pve content?? I’ve been around a while and have played many games and this is the common theme with every game after release. People level too fast and cant figure out why there is nothing for them to do. You’re stuck with pvp or leveling an alt….thats about it for now
well there is a balance that could be made by the deveopers like higher drop rate for lower end recipes and more difficult the higher you get
I’m brandnew and level 12 so far….have gotten zero of anything to level chef from zero. I understand the fix but it needs an increased drop rate then. I can get copper no problem for AS but cant level cooking
