Guild Wars 2

Although the living world is awesome, the speed is not as fast as most of us like to see. And yeah because we battle the dragons we will see destruction for sure, to me that is surely fitting.

But then there is a big “what should we do when there is no living story”?
We should do what charr, asura, men (and not sure) but also sylvari normally do and that is BUILD or REBUILD. This is something that can be done when there is no living story going on.

A big change? No need for that, but every week there should be a option where people can contribute to one or more small events.

Like:
contribute x amount of wood to build a wooden house in LA
contribute x amount of rock to build a stone house in LA
contibute x amount of glittering dust to repair a waypoint

You can also make it like:
Contribute to x amount of events on a map to change a bit of that map

If you have the basic building blocks in place you can start setting up competition.
If more wood than ore have been contributed we get a wooden house…
If more events are done in one map vs another map.. the one with the most events done will get the change.

So many small things will help populate maps, bring the community together and really change the world with baby steps..
