Capes = clipping issues

Which is why you probably won’t see them. =/

It didn’t hinder them from including the coat-like medium chest pieces that routinely clip with some pants or boots.

For capes I’ll just wait for City of Titans. AND SO SHOULD YOU.

How do you play Guildwars?

I use a Cherry G83 and a regular Logitech G400s, standard keymapping. It serves my non-competitive needs well enough, and I haven’t tried sPvP to date anyway.

Is GW2 Fun Yet?

Honestl ypeople. I don’t like grinding either but I still find this game fun, why? Because I don’t reduce it to a spreadsheet and feel the need to get the best equipment ever. Sure, it would be nice, but you can easily kick kitten and chew bubble gum even without 6 Superior Runes of the Monk, a full Arah set and Twilight (I’d really like having that one though).
If you play the game with numbers in mind, numbers is what you’ll get. This game is more suited to playfulness with its aesthetics options, costume brawls, musical minigames, sometimes delightful (Ebonhawke), sometimes kittened (Human and Norn dances) pop-culture references and platforming sections. You should play it with playfulness in mind. Play it as a game, not as an accountancy software.

0/10 to the OP, complaining on how the game is exactly like how it was marketed.

They marketed as fun, experience shows quite a different story. Especially since I have a bunch of people confirming this.

It’s not particularly hard to find a bunch of people who roughly agree with you in a few-million-people-population, i.e. the player-base of GW2. Especially not when they purposefully cluster to exchange their grief about this horrible POS game.

Have you ever been to a women’s shelter? By gathering your data on men only from there, you could easily come to the conclusion that all men are kitten pigs. That is if you’re really dumb. Your method here is the same, except on top of that you conveniently ignore everything other people say, because somehow a cluster of people agreeing with you is argumentatively stronger than a cluster of people disagreeing with you. So that makes it dumb to the power of two.

ALso I only just recently came back tot his game after a year of hiatus because some issues with the game infuriated/disappointed me to no end – and sometimes they still do. So I’m not a fanboy. And honestly the grind is the least of GW2’s problems – after all it took you all 80 levels and then some to be disappointed by it. That says something.

A few more realistic armor sets?

Hey,

as someone coming from a War of the Roses and Mount&Blade background, I have grown extremely fond of armor that is keeping close to realism, but I find myself very retricted in this game as far as that is concerned.

There are a myriad of skin-showing pseudo-armor, gear fit for the catwalk and heavy plate monsters only a true Space Marine could hope to wear without suffocating in his own sweat in a matter of minutes; but there are maybe a handful of armors that look kinda normal. This is a real problem for anyone who wants to have meaningful diversity in his outfit but who can’t suspend disbelief walking around with pauldrons as thick as his head or a harness fit for a Powergirl special issue comic.

It could even still be fashionable and stylish and peakitten-ish!
Just take a look at the fascinating and grotesque helm designs on this site!

And take a look at this site! Weird/glorious as kitten but still practical!

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to strut around in finely embellished armor like this?

Truly worthy of a heroic defender of Lion’s Arch!

Perhaps something for the followers of hare?

Please give us/me more realistic armor to play around with! I would love you long time!
