Grind of any sort, which absolutely includes doing the same old content again and again just to aquire slightly better gear is imho borderline pathological behaviour. For those who feel contrary there already were legendaries, MF exotics, fractal weapons & to a lesser extent ascended trinkets – there’s no good reason to force this stuff on the average player.
I’m sure that most players are aware that game developers have no definite obligation to stick to earlier plannings; unexpected changes to elements that didn’t work out as intended may become necessary in order to improve the game in various ways, to bring it in accord with the developer’s vision.
This is not what happened here. Implementing ascended weapons in the current way was a clear betrayal of concepts that were meant to be (and clearly advertised as) cornerstones of the game – aspects which (among others […]) were to set GW2 apart from other MMOs – to avoid known old flaws instead of just remaking them in a slightly altered shape :(
