No offence Gaile, because you do this as your job and you have to follow strict guidelines but every answer we get is the same kitten over and over again. We’re kind of fed up by now. If you’re going to communicate, communicate effectively. All of the answers are rehashed pointlessness, you know it just as well as we do.
I’ve stated before and I’ll state again, I’ve been a fan since the GW1 and this is honestly killing your game, like it or not. I understand I don’t speak for the entire player base but from what it looks like this entire thread is trying to get answers while any ‘answer’ we do get is the same thing over and over again.
Maybe it’s about time we realize that our opinions clearly don’t matter.
I don’t want to sound like a negative Nancy but it seems as if every time we create these kind of threads it attracts attention but eventually gets swept under the carpet as if our opinions don’t matter. I understand that Gaile among other employees respond to our posts but in hindsight these threads always get closed. Please realize that we’re not trying to badmouth the game but rather provide our insight as to how we see you could better the game, for your interests and ours. We want to see the game flourish, trust us. But without implementation of content or communication we’re left empty handed and forced to go elsewhere.
Like I said in my previous post, I’ve supported the game since early GW1 and I (and others of the community.. not representative of all of course..) feel as if there needs to be a change or else players will continue to leave. Don’t get me wrong, but something needs to be done. Living story IS content but its not sufficient to most players. Not to mention so much of the content that has been deemed ‘new’ is simply rehashes and problems take ages to fix which leaves us to question what is really happening over at ANet.
Please take what we’ve posted into consideration and not reply with some generic comment.
We support the game! We don’t want to see it die off..
Coming from playing GW1 to GW2 I can say that overtime GW2 has become more and more disappointing in terms of content. As stated before, if you don’t care about living story what reason is there to play anymore? There has been literally no more new content. Players have been doing the same stuff over and over again since what we’ve been provided at launch. I believe that the implementation of having set stats and gear is one of the reasons why everyone is complaining because there is literally no progression. In GW1 you could farm over and over to try and get the stats that you wanted and after that you could grind for lower requirement weapons etc as where once you’re maxed in GW2, youre maxed, and thats the end of it. Simply replying to a thread doesn’t mean you’re communicating with the community when all of your answers seem like they’re automated messages.
I love Guild Wars for what it is and I’m not hating on the game, it’s merely my opinion. Take it or leave it but the direction the game is headed is not a good one. Without a clear distinction of what is going to be implemented in the near future besides living story, players don’t have a reason to stay.
If anything he should have been able to be bought with foil wrapper scraps, if you are unlucky enough to not get one in the time you acquired 1k wrappers you aren’t going to win a halloween skin in the lottery either. On the off chance you do happen to win a skin you still can’t trade it for the mini you were after… go figure.
with all the wrappers we’ve gotten out of the bags we should be able to trade those for the mini… knowing my luck with all the bags i’ve opened and the wrappers submitted.. well.. only time will tell but more than likely RNGesus will not go easy on us. This will probably be the last time I purchase gems..
No way my RNG is that good I have opened around 12k or so bags so far and are no where near 1k wrappers – maybe under 100 out of all those bags… I did get the cat right around my 500th bag so I guess that was something. My candy corn RNG is really good I am at 25 cobs now and was hoping to be able to collect more nougats, skulls and plastic fangs but their drop rate is way below that of the corn. I gave up hoping for Gwynefrdd as a drop. I just want another cat so hubby can have one. Otherwise I will give him enough cobs to buy one if he doesn’t get a drop.

Spent well over a thousand gold on this so far and still nothing worthwhile even though the intention is to get the mini. I understand the ‘problem’ has been ‘addressed’ but this is ridiculous..
Has this issue been addressed/solved? I tried researching and I found this thread. I’m looking into crafting Eternity soon but this sounds disappointing.
Well, I’m not sure if this was said before cause there was some long posts but, I LIKED THE GW1 SYSTEM BETTER. The one where you could choose to customize weapons or not? Maybe this has something to do with the economy, which isn’t ‘bad’ in my opinion but I can understand where all the concerns are coming in… just my thoughts I suppose. I’ve talked to some guildies and old friends and they seem to think this way too. Love your videos by the way Kinetic!
I identify mine, simply because I want to complete the set. However! Before I set about this I actually wanted a select few dyes and I’ve found a few of them by identifying dyes I’ve found. Abyss and White It’s really biased to be honest because personally I don’t think I would spend 20g+ on a dye. Just my take :P
Good read. I agree with most of what you’ve said. It’s all about the grind though and it may not be for everyone but when you get whatever you’re working towards the feeling is irreplaceable!
