Guild Wars 2

Alright, I have seen a lot of very good points already in this thread. I would like to extend some suggestions instead of just pointing out what needs to change.

1. First and foremost we need to discuss the story. The living world story is amazing, unfortunately you have to look elsewhere other than in-game to fully understand the depth and how everything is connected to each other.

Suggestions: Create a building in Lions Arch and call it the Library. This building will have in game summary of all the lore up to this point. Including the short stories provided to us on the website. A place to go and read what happened in previous living world updates if you missed it. A place to watch cutscenes that you missed in like a “recorded” style. A place where we will be able to make the connections between “E”, Scarlet, Ellen Kiel, Gnashblade, aetherblade, Super Adventure Box, etc….

All of a sudden the back-story of Scarlet will be in-game instead of somewhere on the www. You could even include the personal story information and cutscenes (updated as you progress).

2. The very linear living story events.

I must admit it was a great idea to add scarlet’s invasions to the game. However, it happens so often that it is now overlooked. A lot of living world events become like this as they are very linear. (i.e the same result happens every time you complete it).

Suggestion: The first solution most people will throw out is “increase the rewards” or “make the invasions appear only once a week” both of which could work. However I would suggest a combination of both. What would happen if everytime you beat scarlet’s invasion she spills a little tiny spoiler of her master plan?

All of a sudden you will have people flocking to stop her because we will get more of the story revealed.

This can be done with all living world events “i.e Tequatl” if everytime we got information about the elder dragons every time tequatl died it would be amazing. Which would then update the library.

This will only work if the events are made to happen much less frequently than currently.

Just a few suggestions

As a guild officer, I’m really curious to know if we will get more information in regards to whether you can talk about more things we can do in guild. Is a “date last seen” or “time last online” in the guild roster being considered?
