Guild Wars 2

Snowmoon.1758:

Making people pay for missed content is rather silly imo.
Can you imagine someone who missed 10 episodes of Season 2 due to exams
and when he finally comes back, he has to pay 2000gems JUST to unlock them to play? (considering 1 episode costs 200gems)

Why would he even bother to pay?
Seriously, judging by the quality of season 1’s story, is it even WORTH to pay 200gems?

You’re just encouraging people who are not able to play to actually seriously consider quitting the game.

Very VERY stupid move Anet.
This is probably one of the WORST decisions you’ve made.

You do know along as you log in during the 2 weeks a patch is up you’ll get the content forever, right? I think I can manage to sign in for a total of 5 minutes during my finals so I don’t have to pay.

The vocal GW2 community imo generally is the community of “no”, worse so than any other community I have ran into.

Dueling in the open world= No, my feelings will be hurt.
Tequatl & Wurm = No, accessibility is not fair.
Mounts= No, we have Waypoints and it clutters my screen.
Raids= No, go back to WoW
GvG= No, you have WvW
Race change= No, your personal story means something (lol)
Mega servers= No, I rather just guest to a server that gets things done for me.
Xpacs= No, we have this great living story.
Ascended= No, no, no, no

Easy to tell for some if it isn’t GW1 or standing around playing dress up w/Wardrobe, plushy backs, mini’s, furry animal hats, or beta release content only…..the answer is NO, for the sake of argument I suppose.

It will be very interesting over the next year to see what kind of influence the release in the east will have on this game.

I’m sure Anet will do what they think will be beneficial retaining players, features like above mentioned are a good start including the option to duel in the open world.

Yep, you’ve hit the nail on the head with that. Everyone just wants easy zerging, spam 1 content. Dueling, raids, GvG etc would be amazing…
