Guild Wars 2

Guild Wars 2 Mounts – Paid by Gem Store – Ground Mounts – Expansion bonus?

This topic talks about the inclusion of Mounts within the game. This aspect of MMO gaming has been talked about before, however not in significant detail. It’s clear implementing mounts would be more a want than a need, with the pre – existing use of way points, however as Guild Wars 2 strives to persuade and direct players into the exploration of the environment with use of vistas, points of interest and area completion, it seems odd way points were ever even introduced. Not to mention the seemingly expensive cost through high level way point use which can add up in the end. As Guild Wars 2 is free with no subscription, I believe the purchase through the gem store of ground mounts would find players gladly paying the money with no arguments, given the choice they have.

From a graphical and creative standpoint, I believe ArenaNet could really pull this off. I can only imagine what the mounts would look like, having a spider with armored gear or a huge bear are only some ideas, but it could really complete a players look. To be honest, i would much rather travel and complete area’s with a mount than teleporting and watching a loading screen.

Agree or disagree, I think many people would enjoy this inclusion of mounts within the game via Gem Store, not to mention the potential profit which is there for ArenaNet. If this was ever to happen, I believe it would make the most sense to be released within an expansion in the future, hopefully.
