I was a big fan of the first Guild Wars. I liked the story, there wasn’t much useless crap to do outside of titles. You were to be able to link your GW2 with your GW account and use the titles from GW1 to get stuff in GW@. I received no such benefit. Back to my main gripes.
I started playing and I immediately didn’t like that the skills changed based on what weapon you had quipped. Being able to make a build to suit your needs was what made Guild Wars fun. That is gone. There are dailies, which I am assuming is daily kills or quests. Hell I don’t know. The storyline is incoherent at best. I still have yet to get to the point where I am understanding what happened to Tyria.
What really turns me off with this game is the level scaling. If I am level 15, keep me at level 15. I enter a area that has enemies that are lvl 11 I get scaled to level 11. Them kitten veteran bears and boars hit hard and with limited skill and lowered level it is hard to kill them. That is really annoying. That totally defeats the purpose of leveling doesn’kitten I used to farm things on GW1 by leveling and going back and killing things to get stuff to salvage and whatnot. Now I can’t do that because I am scaled to their level.
And what is with the Karma? Is it really necessary to add a totally useless currency to the game that you now have to keep doing these pointless quests over and over just to get a different currency for who knows what? Not it isn’t. You have gold silver and copper. That is good enough. There is dailies (I am not even sure what that is about yet) which I assume help you in some way, though I haven’t quite figured it out.
There are champion monsters that you fight which is just boring because you have to be in a group to kill them and it is a constant train you have to follow around. This game is Poor at best. It has lost my interest and I will not be playing it again.
On a separate note, they have failed again when it comes to the Original GW. I can not get my NCsoft account anymore because it gives me an error that says the games I had attached to the account no longer exist. So now I can’t even play the original anymore. You have lost a customer Anet. Judging by the problems people are having with Aion and NCsoft, You may want to pull your head out of a certain area of your bodies before more people do the same.
I agree. Guild wars at least had a story. This is way too much like WoW. So many junk quests that do nothing. Karma to buy things? Huh? I played for a week and I haven’t been back. Binding the skills to a weapon is so frustrating. Sure it may be a living world with better graphics but it is way too easy to get lost in all the trash quests, unviewed vistas, quests you have to repeat to get “Karma” and all that other crap. This game was hyped up waaaaaaay too much and it wasn’t all that it promised. What is with the level adjusting? I go into a lower level area and I get adjusted based on the enemies there? That is the main reason I will no longer play guild wars. You disappointed me with this game Anet. VERY much so.
