Guild Wars 2

Please bring back the Log-in Screen from Beta Weekend #1. Back when a lot of us streamers (including myself) streamed Beta Weekend #1, we had the log-in screen up and streaming for hours before the servers were open and most of us, if not all of us all commented on how the log-in screen looked.

The music that played at the log-in screen, the concept art that scrolled on by inside the Guild Wars 2 logo, and the simplistic; yet artistic style of the log-in box was just beautiful. I don’t see why you guys had to take it out.

I know you guys want the authenticate system in so that people’s accounts are secure, but can’t you guys try to figure a way out to code in that system into the log-in screen? A few games already have the system at their log-in screen. World of Warcraft, Runescape, Neverwinter, etc.

I beseech you ArenaNet, please please PLEASE bring back the log-in screen that once instilled anticipation and excitement in me just by opening up the game and seeing such beauty.

Screenshot of the Log-In Screen is down below for those players who don’t know what I am talking about or registered for the game after the Beta.

—UPDATE!—

Thanks to one of the players, there is a petition open on Change.org to get the log-in screen back into the game. The link is here if you wish to sign the petition!

Important Note:
I encourage all of you to explain why you would like the Super Adventure Box to stay as a permanent addition.

My reasons are, this content alone restored my childhood. I just spent all night constantly playing this content over and over with glee. I’ve never nerdgasm’d so hard in my entire life. The classic Bowser laugh when you are fighting a boss or die, the rupee sound effect when you pick up Bougles, and the monkeys from Donkey Kong. I mean, seriously.

This would seriously be a great addition to players to go mess around in for some R&R after a long day of grinding, world vs world, or PvP. It’s very fun, very engaging, and just all out amazing!
