Guild Wars 2

Yeah, I ended up emailing them and got a reply stating “manufacturing issues” were delaying the shipment. This is the kind of thing I would’ve expected to be told directly instead of having to actively seek an answer for.

Turns out their site also hates diacritics, so I need to have my address corrected on top. Compared to most online shopping experiences this is really not something I hope to encounter often.

I’ve purchased the deluxe soundtrack on DirectSong more than a month ago now. I can understand that they’re not a large vendor and don’t have the kind of infrastructure, say, Amazon has, but by now I would’ve expected some form of feedback, if only a “your order should be shipped within X weeks, don’t worry!”

I’m starting to think they just took my money and didn’t bother sending anything. Very disappointing store choice from ANet. Their customer area is also the worst thing I have ever seen: a full Flash site in this day and age? Are you kidding me? And it doesn’t even give delivery updates…

Actually, the one and only thing I’d really like to see adjusted is crafting vendors. They seemingly only have one or two lines each and they repeat them constantly. When you’re sticking around crafting for 15-30 minutes, hearing “Ideas are like cream… good ones rise to the top” a hundred times gets debilitating.

I’d rather crafting vendors not have voice overs. Other NPCs aren’t quite as bad, but those are downright infuriating.
