While I don’t believe that the LV content is worse than a subscription, a subscription is real money being wasted LV is not, I must admit that I see this temporary content as a waste of so much of Anets resources.
The living world was a nice idea and in the beginning they only had one team working on it with Frost and Flame, which I took part in. I enjoyed it and had fun but this recent announcement has made the new content dull to me.
For those that might find fault with me saying this answer me this first. Why should I play the temporary content? It won’t be around to have a meaningful impact, except for dungeons that might return, and it makes me feel obligated to play that content because it will be gone soon.
I’m not going to stop playing GW2 but why care about the new content coming out? It doesn’t matter in my eyes except perhaps as a side break, but my biggest problem is why is Anet so focused on temp. content rather than permanent?
I wouldn’t mind the living story if at least part of it stayed around but none of it is. So why should I not have concerns if Anet is so heavily focused on content that if a player hasn’t been keeping up on will become lost in the middle of the ongoing event and be put off by it. This practice doesn’t draw in new players and will push some casuals away.
My main problem is that I feel Anet is spending too much time on temp stuff instead of permanent stuff.Why not combine the 2?
I hope that Anet does get some new permanent content out soon, but the LV stuff just doesn’t hold my attention a lot because once you get behind you get left out. All you get out of LV is some new stuff and a temporary kind of ongoing story.
Again for those that find fault in what I say answer me this. Why should I get invested and excited about something that won’t be there after a little while and not express even the slightest bit of concern that it seems like Anet is focused just a little bit too much on it and not on fixing bugs and furthering permanent content?
Just a question for thought.
