First post in this forum, last post in this forum. I know this post will just drown in this thread but i feel like saying this anyway.

I just downloaded the patch and checked the patchnotes, with a tiny little bit of last hope that Anet changed their mind at the last possible moment. Well turns out they didn’t. So i logged into the game, gave all my gold and items to my guildmates (well at least to those who are still playing) and deinstalled the game afterwards.
3200 hours of GW, 300 hours of GW2 and what’s left at the moment is a feeling of deep disappointment. I won’t come back to this game, not even if they should someday revert all of this. I will however play GW1 from time to time and if it is just to remember the good old times and to get a taste of what GW2 could (and should, as it was promised that way) have become.

It’s not because i hate gear treadmills as a concept alltogether, i have played games with that concept in the past and i will play games with it in the future. It is just that this game was advertised as the one alternative where you could just play along and didn’t have to worry about staying competitive after every update.

So that’s it, just wanted to say something and not just leave quiet and completely unnoticed. It has been a good time and i’m sad that it is over so fast, goodbye.
