Crux sacra sit mihi lux! Nunquam draco sit mihi dux!
One thing that I have found that really takes some of the fun out of GW2 is having to pay for using the waypoints when map traveling. I know the fees are supposed to be modest, but so are parking fees in the downtown area of my city: and they’re still annoying. I feel like I’m being nickeled and dimed to death. If I pay to use the waypoints, it really does add to my frustration of not being able to get anywhere in this economy. I already have to deal with economic hardship in real life, why would I want to deal with it in game? It’s frustrating, not fun.
If I want to avoid paying a fee, I have to run to wherever I want to go. It adds time to the game. Instead of being able to have fun, I have to spend extra time getting ready to have fun by running to my destinations instead of simply being able to map travel for free. My playing time is limited as it is, and if I have to spend 10 minutes running somewhere in order to do something, it really cuts into my ability to enjoy the game. Again, it’s frustrating, not fun.
Please dump this particular gold sink. I really believe that freedom to move about the map will make GW2 more fun to play.
