I play it on 2 years older MacBook Air. I don’t think you will need to reduce the temperature in any other way than letting the fan run. If it were to get damaged, the computer would shut itself down. Don’t worry, MBAs get quite often near this temperature, the noise is just the fan running at 6,5k rpm.

GW2 Design/Graphics/UI

I am not talking about graphic details or any of that, but isn’t the design overall a bit worse than it was in GW1? Which by the way, even though a lot of the UI changed through the years, is quite old.

I know it is probably the purpose, but everything just looks grungy, blurry, etc. The GW1 UI was much sharper which I think a UI should be. Take for example the target’s health bar. In GW1 you clearly saw hex and condition HP degeneration. Putting aside all of the bars and unit frames, items in inventory looked better and cleaner without background. GW2 just seems too messy.

Then the armour sets and weapons – they are just not as sharp as they were.

And yeah, since a picture is better than thousand words:

P.S. Not hating, just sharing thoughts.

So.. I’ve done some more research… it seems that necro is quite repleceable in almost everything. Does necro has its place in dungeons or are people rather taking warriors/eles/guardians?

Also I read that neither of these professions are quite good in PvP, is that true? How is necro doing 1v1 and large groups?

Hello,

I just purchased GW2. I played GW1 for a long time, so I have a few questions about this game and maybe you can help me clarify some of the confusion.

1) Which character should I play? I am deciding between Necro and Warrior. I really liked Necro in GW1 for the lots of ways to play it, but it seems to me that it’s a little bit different in GW2? I am not looking for the easiest profession. The fact that there are too many warriors (at least I heard) puts me off of playing warrior a little bit.

2) As I said, in GW1, there were tons of builds and specific combinations for farming, running, speed clears, different arenas, etc. Does this exist in GW2 too?

3) What’s the situation with population? Are there a lot of people playing? The thing that confuses me is that there are almost no videos on YouTube and when there are, they have very low view count. Again, there were tons of videos how to do something in GW1.

Thank you
