Guild Wars 2

Having a major issue in the Hearts and Minds mission, I chose Caithe as one follower and after her fight it asks you to activate the reality rift, however no matter how many times I activate the rift, absolutely nothing happens and I cannot progress in the story!

I’m sure there’s been a post like this before but I just felt the need to say it again.
I absolutely loved Guild Halls in GW1, so why were they taken away in GW2? I would really love to see a place for guilds to hang out outside of just lurking around Divinity’s Reach. Of course, I’m thinking of RP and Social guilds more than PvX guilds which I’m not sure need guild halls, but still, it’s certainly a nice thing to have.
Another thing is player-owned housing. I’m a stickler for customization, and having your own house that you can build and customize would just be awesome. I know there is limited customization on the “home instances” but since those are set and everyone has the same one in the same spot, it doesn’t really feel like a house, also since no one can see while you’re in there. If housing were to be added, I think a good way would be in the form of a housing district on the Zaishen Isles perhaps? This was the location of the GW1 Guild halls. I know it would take a lot of work but I definitely think more players would come to or return to the game if even one of these things were added.
