Guild Wars 2

I was going to make a new thread but Ill add the other thing to this discussion.

First, I opened my personal gift this morning and it was so nice. An emperial fragment and some really beautiful, nice and useful food treats (the ugly knitwear last year totally sucked and you know it). This year you made me smile, GW2. We don’t tell you enough when stuff makes us happy, even small stuff like this.

Second, about the mini games in the Wintersday event. You guys really need to give deep thought to some of the things you do. Wintersday should be a very happy time and relaxed. Trying to get the jumping puzzle is all the stress we need, especially while so many of us still have Heart of Thorns stressing us already. Give us some games that are really fun, not just running around killing and dying.

Why not be generous and please us every day with the things that cost you nothing—presents and fun games that don’t end up in a farming chore. It’s the happiest holiday for goodness sake.

I appreciate the good things, yes. Thank you. But sometimes it looks like the bottom line has taken GW2 over. Maybe get rid of the grench that runs your economy and put some nice stuff in monster chests instead of the TP.

You know what would be totally fantastic for next Wintersday (or omg if you could work it in for this one!) THE SUPER ADVENTURE BOX WOULD FIT IN TOTALLY PERFECTLY FOR WINTERSDAY!!!!!! Wow!! did I just have an truly magnificent idea? Yes, I think I did.

Or next Wintersday a grand opening of the Polymock arena!!!! I just know it’s going to blow our minds. Give it to us!!! Remember Polymock in GW? The rewards were some really fantastic NPC helpers. Wow!!

Gaile, I remember when you were a frog and the GW2 people danced around the Wintersday tree as elves. Don’t you miss it too? The noobs who have since come to GW2 need to get a taste of real generosity. It happens to be fun!!! If you are with us, then be with us. You need a visit from the Ghost of Christmas Past.

As of five minutes ago I still could not buy gems. Fails to redirect to PayPal. This morning I made a support ticket on this and was answered that it has been fixed!!! ANet seems to be deaf dumb and blind on this issue. Just reporting—AGAIN—it’s still not working.

Same for me. Pain in the tail. I really need to stop spending all this money anyway. …. One more day and I will take it as a sign to stop buying gems. ;-)
