Guild Wars 2

and yes , only the Prince of the undead , or whatever his name is, gives me any trouble and if he wasn’t absolutly guarding the npc’s bodies that i have to rezz to give me a chance I could most likely do the instance and enjoy it. You say “if the npc’s die”, well the npc’s ALWAYS die because of the great horde of undead that pour into the room to start with.

well Jerry, Ossuary is impossible witout a group, I am posting this to say the stupid, stupid idea that everything in the game has to be “overwhemingly difficult” has just done it for me, I may never play this game again and will probably advise anyone who asks me that the game is is built for elite players who think dieing continually is fun. If I have to waste 2 hours a day looking for groups I don’t think I am having fun, and having FUN is what gaming is all about to me. If the game is only frustrating and maddening you might as well play something else.

The step name is the “ossuary of the unquiet dead” , I have gotten over my mad for now and am going to try it again from the beginning, however, I do think that there should be a solo optoin for the dungeons and the other instanced scenarios. By offering such an option you are catering to a fairly large group of players who enjoy the social part of the game but are still primarily solo players.

I have finally run into a sccenario in my (so-called) "personal story’’ that is vertually impossible to complete solo, even if i die mutiple times. I die, I go back and the big dude (who can wipe your entire group of npc’s in seconds) is standing in the doorway in front of 5 minions of my level. All of the npc’s I need to rezz to have a ghost of a chance are beyond him ( no chance of reaching them at all). I try and they kill me in about a second. I come back and it there he is again in the bloody doorway over and over again. This is my PERSONAL story! I shouldn’t HAVE to share it with a group of other people. Dieing continually is NOT fun and unless the dev’s tone down on the “insurmountable odds” idea they all seem to have, I really don’t think this game is gonna maintain its player base. that would be a shame because the game had such great promise.

My beef is that there is nothing personal at all about this game! It dose its best to force you into groups right from the start. The hype for the game indicated theat there would be a solo option here and I have seen none of that. I enjoy groups, but I also enjoy solo dungeons and scenarios. Here. either I group up or I die 20 or 30 times a day
which is no fun at all. By ignoring players who like the social aspect of a MMO but still are primarily solo players I think the game will eventually aleinate a large number of players that it could have held onto if only they had offered a solo choice to their dungeons and made the personal story PERSONAL instead of forcing people to find groups to complete it!!
