Guild Wars 2

Bunmaster.9734:

This game caters the casual, which is the vast majority of the game population.

Being a casual gamer, I have to disagree with you. I’ve been in way too many PuGs where it takes hours (sometimes on one boss) because you simply can’t explain to the morons that this game is not like WoW or Rift or any other Tank ‘n Spank game and the mechanics must be obeyed. Inside dungeons, this is the least casual-friendly game I’ve played. Not to mention that specific builds are practically a must if you can power gear through it.

I’m not talking about end-game as I’ve developed a fear of it from my guild taking my brand new 80 into fractal level 5 or higher without letting it get gear for the more advanced difficulty.

I actually stopped playing in part due to the Living Story. I was doing normal stuff and started to miss out, then didn’t know where the next part of the Living Story was and just gave up after a while. And then there’s the extreme tedium of a few of them when you try solo and no one else is doing them anymore. I don’t want to spend an hour and a half with a lowbie raised to 80 in horrible (comparatively) gear because the waves of pointless enemies keep coming. I want to see story. Living Story, c’mon.
