I’ve never posted here, but I had to chime in on this. Besides a way to retain customers, these events, coupled with the new F2P game are an advertisement for how good HoT will be.
My job in real life is event coordinator. If I messed up a chance this big and potentially lucrative to advertise and promote my company, plus managed to alienate existing customers my boss would hand me my head on a platter and probably plant his boot in my rear on the way out the door.
GW2 isn’t new any more. So it’s got to be at the top of its game to keep its players as much as add new ones.
I was planning to invite some friends to try GW2 as F2P hoping they’d buy the game/expansion. Now not only am I not, I am seriously rethinking my own prior plans to buy the expansion at the end of this month. I stuck the event out for about 35 mins last night. Started falling sleep it was so boring. If this event is in anyway what HoT will be like? No thanks.
I will put the game aside till the expansion comes out, then will see what happens.

Hey someone as old as I am! Refreshing!
Forced large guilding just doesn’t do it for me either. 20 yrs ago I might have had the patience to put up with large guild requirements. Now I just get tired.
To those arguing that small guilds don’t count?
All gamers count.
Some of us prefer small groups of friends with similar tastes and cultures, others prefer giant noisy rule-heavy herds.
One thing I’ve loved about GW2 until now was the ability to play it my way on my terms. I have a real life, a rather full one. I am in constant contact with the public daily and when I come home I want to cocoon with a few quiet good friends/family and relax. If I were forced into a giant, busy, loud, guild I’d quickly quit and take my gem dollars with me. Pretty simple.
