Possibility GW2 Never Gets Full Expansion

Let’s be honest… I don’t think anyone can honestly expect 2 years of living story to match the scale of an expansion… just a quick comparison to WoW’s first expansion at the 2 year mark:

2 new races
11 new zones
A new PvP mode and 4 PvP maps
A new crafting profession
Increased level cap with new traits, skills, abilities, etc.
16 full dungeons with both normal and hard modes (32 total)
9 Raids (there isn’t even a GW2 equivalent to this….)
Hundreds and hundreds of quests, many of which were varied and exciting
A full story with TONS of lore
14 new reputations to earn with full associated rewards
35 armor sets
There’s more but this is getting embarrassing so i’ll stop.

As opposed to GW2 living story:
smash 10000000 pinatas
smash 10000000 holo things
ride a balloon
Join a zerg for some reason

It is pretty laughable to even attempt to go on. The 3 dungeons we’ve gotten so far could all fit inside the first half of a WoW dungeon, and would all be considered mechanicless tank and spank fights except for the aetherblade ones.

Do NOT forget , that we are getting this Content of the living Story for FREE , we do not have too Pay, like for one Expansion. And it just started about 1 year ago ,we have 1 full Year in front of us too Compare it with the WoW first Update that you had too pay 24 Months Sub + Expansion = about 390€ in total for the first 2 Years (15€ every Month +30€ Expansion).
