Guild Wars 2

I haven’t played all week since the finish of Phase 3 and a couple abysmal pugs for FotM. I logged on Monday night and couldn’t decide which of my five characters to play and then when I finally picked one, I didn’t feel like re-exploring (for the 3rd or 4th time) the same zones. Switched to a character to do the story quest, but I couldn’t decide which faction to go with since I’ve done all three on other characters. I tried a skill point and an event, but with no one else in the zone (I think) the fun of playing with other people was missing, and both of these were very difficult indeed. I enjoyed the story and explorer modes of the other dungeons because they took a reasonable amount of time to complete. However, with FotM, you have to do three dungeons which can take up to 3 hours if people aren’t familiar or like me are sort of bad at jumping, if you can even find someone who is the same level as you (I’m level 2). I’m playing other games now for short periods of time which is all I’m going to have with getting ready for Christmas becoming a priority. I miss discovering new zones, and the novelty of the events and story line, and the fun of the original dungeons. I’m not interesting in Fractals or a gear grind, so the new content holds no allure for me.

I have to agree. Was looking forward to this after Halloween. Got in after the main event on Phase 1 and now have a potion and a scroll that no one wants. Never say a soggy bag. Missed Phase 2 event, but participated in Phase 3 making me thankful I missed one and two. ++ silver in repairs for 2 1/2 hour event. No drops off any mobs. The chest made up for some of the repair costs in the 20-slot bag alone. Tried the Fractals Dungeon twice now, and the swamp was impossible (the back wisp location), so we left and got a jump puzzle into the air one, at which point two people had to leave, which was fine because we had all wiped anyway. So still haven’t completed level 1. I won’t be going back into the dungeon and with Christmas and end of year events in real life, I won’t be playing much. No incentive really. May do something if there are holiday activities, but I won’t have loads of time, or be able to take time off work for it, so likely that won’t be very beneficial game-wise. My question is, do I destroy the potion and scroll. Kiel doesn’t want them and Levvii is gone from the game it seems. Way too complicated and broken. I would vote #3 of the poll response from a previous forum post.

Had to be the worst event in my gaming history of 16 yrs and 45 games. Had to the potential to be really great, but was so poorly executed it was insane. I hope to god they never, ever do another POS like this. This will go down in gaming annals as one of the worst events ever. And the rest of you, here is a rag, wipe your nose off.
