I think new content every 2 weeks would be great… if it stayed. Southsun Cove, for example, is still there. Now holiday events, or things like a ship about to leave is understandable, but I WANT MORE AREAS! You’ve got more than half the map to build on ANET! Do something with it! (I think building a whole area like the Shiverpeaks or Maguuma Jungle in the ocean to the south would be great. More variety of underwater enemies, and a whole world of completely different EVERYTHING to explore. PLEASE ANET, PLEASE!

Will this be another Zhaitan...?

We haven’t heard anything about the final battle with Mordremoth. Anet, don’t you dare give us another Zhaitan fight -.-

Suggestion: Female/male armour toggle

Toggle for female armour to use male armour look

I’m a member of a GW2 Girls facebook group, and one issue that comes up pretty regularly is the female armour. Fairly frequently a piece of armour that looks powerful and kitten on a male character will look sexy/girlish and often exposing on a female. Several of the women in the group who like to play female characters prefer sexy, but the majority of them enjoy playing a more practically dressed character.

It is already possible to play a completely unsexualised female humanoid but requires hunting around for skins and armour sets, particularly for light armoured classes. The default light armour at character creation is a miniskirt, garter and crop-top, which can be offputting for a new player.

Guild Wars 2 is already incredibly welcoming to female players; the charr and asura are brilliant, and the female NPCs are whole people with their own motives. It’s this incredibly positive experience I’ve had that makes me hungry for more.

I think a great solution to this issue would be to have a toggle (maybe on the bottom right of the armour piece, like the show/hide toggle) that allows you to switch between the default ‘female’ armour, and the ‘male’ armour. This could be added gradually, focusing on the armour sets with the biggest differences between male and female.

Alternatively/ in addition a similar toggle on character creation might help a new female player feel more welcome and catered for.

While this isn’t part of my suggestion it would be nice to eventually see such a toggle on the male humanoids too, so that they can wear the cute girl skirts too if they want. That would be crazy-progressive.

Edit: To be clear I mean showing the skin of the male armour on the female frame.

I agree with the idea, but not the method. Giving females access to make armour models would be too controversial, due to little cross-dressing theme it brings with it (nothing wrong with that, but if that isn’t the intent then it becomes controversial), as well as the fact that they’d have to add female clothing for men.

How about a modified armour for both genders? Not the armour of the opposite gender, but rather a look more “buff” (for females) or “sleek” (for males)??

Please always remind yourself, and given the circimstance of this especially (it is the ending to the personal story, after all), it has to be catered to the lowest common denominator, much like almost all of the other content in-game, so the hypercasuals have a chance to win. I mean, the already huff and puff about having to enter an instance and party with people in an MMO just to complete “MY” story, could yoy imagine how much more they’d rage of they actually had to fight some real bosses? Oh boy…

Pick any single enemy in the entire of guild wars. ANY ENEMY AT ALL. I guarantee you it was harder that Zhaitan. Yes, that includes level 2 moa birds.
