So… I currently have 210 Blooms… I lost the first dailies… I still have 2 more to do, that would gave me 270 ‘till the reset…
Correct if I’m wrong. The 3 events chains, last for 3 hours: 30 minutes of the event in each area, plus 30 minutes break. And 1 hour of a break for the next chain… So… That would be 4 hours each chain of 3 events plus the break for the next… Yeah, ok… If you work, and study. You actually will have the max of 3 ~ 4 hours to play, tops! Like I do, and that because it’s weekend. Ok, cool! You gain nothing doing the event, just the blooms, mobs don’t drop anything, you get angry, and alot of strees and anxiety to not lose any event, so you can get many Mordrem Buff as possible for a better reward of 15 Blooms, at each chain…
I’ll have to work tomorrow, and go to the university, as a lot of person will have to do so too, I’m sure… After the daily reset, I would have to spend 3 hours to do the daily for more 90 or 105 blooms tops… I would probably end even more streesed and workout, ‘cuz a worked all day already and all weekend, and again, I’m sure I’m not alone here…
I play Guild Wars 2 since the launch, since the Betas, I pre-ordered when you guys posted it, now I pre-ordered the HoT expansion too, because Anet had in Guild Wars 1, such great events, you guys always gave us time to do things, everyone had a chance, people who worked, who wanted some time to enjoy the game, have fun with other players and friends, in Guild Wars 2, it was the same at the beggining, i got some friends to play, ‘cuz it was so cool! So fun!
Now… Just for my surprise… 1 month before the release of the expasion, you guys decide to do a 3 days event… With items many players wanted, like the toxic gloves, shoulders… And whatnot the epic Selfless Potions, that I lost because I had some issues at the time of Scarlet Invasion. So… I thought I lost my chance… then you guys go… And do that wonderful event… But I have to work… And you guys have a wonderful idea of a 3 ~ 4 hours event chain that give you 105 tokens daily, and 45 tokens at every 3 ~ 4 hours after the daily bonus… So… 7 hours of farm 150 tokens…? Okay pretty hard core for a event that don’t give any other thing than the box that you get with the 20 tokens in the daily bonus (the only good thing about the event, because the rewards are good, its a small chance, but still good), now… What was the intention of that event? Seeing how hardcore your players were? Like making us losing 7 hours of our day to just get 150 tokens?? Considering the event had 3 to 4 days of duration, if we spend those 7 hours in 3 days we could get one potion, and another reward, like a mini-pet or some extra boxes…? I don’t know why you guys gave us false hope to get something we wanted, atleast in my case, but that event was pretty poorly designed, I can’t give any “good” feedback, because it was to cruel for some players, It’s not because it’s weekend that we have that amount of time to play. I really got very sad with Anet lately, I really loved your first game, and Guild Wars 2, that’s why I still play… But that… I know you guys are working hard at ending the HoT, but if you don’t have enough time to do something, like a good event that can give all players the SAME chance… Don’t do it… Please? But yeah… Alot of haters and trolls will badmouth me later, will say I’m a crybaby or whatever… I really don’t care, and I know the world is not fair… But you guys always gave us the same chance… That’s why I got so sad with that event… Maybe my math is just not good enough, but yeah… Do what, now I will have to be glad to get 360 blooms, because I’m seriously not losing a day of work and 11 hours to farm anothers 90 blooms.
But yeah… Thanks for all the good events you did before, but that event sucked, really, really bad.
Have a wonderful day… ^^
