@DiogoSilva : i think you forgot the essential, “mini-games teamplay”. I think they should add xbox360 controller compatibility with the game and split screen, so we could enjoy it’s party games for what it’s worth with our friends/family on a single screen… awesome! “Throw the barrel, throw the barrel dude, i see an open!” That would make it the perfect revolutionary MMO focused on cooperation.

Dailies - the bane of modern games

Although to be honest, the longer I play, the more I think that the whole concepts of dailies, timegating and achievements do irrevocable damage to the game and turn it more into a chore than a fun pastime.

I feel the same. Around 3k hours played and 11k pts achieved, dailies took me 2h/day until now, and this update just make it worse. It shows that developers don’t have anything more to offer but artificial content, it’s been a year now, and GW2 has exactly the same content except fractals since its release. ArenaNet are the “Skritt of the year”, because they know how to recycle their content.
Dailies and achievment points, that’s what remains of GW2 after one year, that’s the only argument to hold people playing their game.

GW2 is all about dailies and achievments points, no real substencial content being added since fractals. They’re just pushing more every month to recycle old content with monthly updates that force you do re-do the old content or Mario party games in order to gain new achievments. Dailies and achievment points, this is GW2.
