No GTO is right. You guys haven’t played GW1 if your sitting there saying that “O the lack of skills isn’t the problem.” It is the problem and it causes the lack of diversity in this game. You are pressing the same skills over and over again for everything that you do. I had a small guild of 300 and I was the leader that got each individual to join my guild. Every person that was in there agreed as well as other friends that the living story isn’t worth doing. So this just isn’t 2 people playing this game that feel this way. Its not interesting. The main game story is not good at all and that’s why these living stories are out is to try and add on to it. Look GW2 is the best mmo out but that’s only because GW1 isn’t updated with the graphics and new mechanics thatGW2 has. GW1 has a better story, skills, and diversity in the game then GW2. This game dictates what really what you do as in a build and skills. In GW1 you had 500 skills with 2 professions. The builds were endless and I never got bored of playing the story over and over again. In GW2 theres that 1 build that wrecks and everyone gravitates towards that. So I get penalized for being different and wanting to do what I want to do. So in GW2 when you see a ranger its like o he has spirits or a thief of wait for the invis!!! In GW1 it took skills to play that game even though it didn’t have the dodging mechanics that GW2 has so when you saw a ranger its like…. Is that touch ranger, thump ranger, interrupt ranger, trap ranger, lock down cast ranger. beast master ranger etc. Anybody who didn’t play gw1 when it was out thinks they know what they are talking about for gw2 and that “o it just needs more enemies” I played gw1 from day 1 so as a Veteran Guild wars player to the franchise, Yes the way that o I put a bow on so I have these 5 skills without choice is what kills that game. GW1 listened to its core players more because it was a mmo that had to compete when they left blizzard to become arena net and they knew that the players were the key to that game succeeding. Now that gw2 is out they are not listening to us (veteran gw1 player) anymore. You guys that argue this stuff, go out and buy gw1 and see how long you last against somebody when you actually have to make your own builds and not just wiki them…. Arena nets whole deal with this game was to make a mmo that didn’t feel grindy…. well guess what it does…. There’s no end game content so I farm frostgorge 8 hours a day to make money. I cant even tell you how many times I’ve done every dungeon to lvl my characters. It is grinding work in everything in that game. If you aren’t a GW1 player then ya I see you saying the stuff that you guys are saying because this is what you know as a MMO. Anybody who played gw1 would understand where GTO and Myself are coming from. Arena net is almost on the lines of Blizzard. The only step would be to start asking for monthly sub fees and they are blizzard. Blizzard doesn’t listen to anybody but they people that open their wallets and say here you go if you do this! Arena nets whole idea with guild wars 2 was a really great idea. If they didn’t take away the amount of skills and left it to where you can wield w/e and templates GW2 would be hands down the best mmo ever made without question. Its 2 years now and you guys still have only what 40 skills on each profession…….. Arena net isn’t gonna listen to us because they feel like what they are doing is enough. I don’t care about a living story… The ones I have done (90% of them) I just felt it was a grind to just get the item I wanted. I want a game were it was old skill where I sat there for 2 hours making my own builds and studying the skills so when I smashed somebody there was pride and a sense of accomplishment there. That isn’t there anymore in gw2 I feel no accomplishments like in GW1. If you guys announced a GW3 in the making honestly I hope you guys take this into consideration or myself and a lot others will not want to come back to your game ever again. If you guys made GW1 with updated graphics and the mechanics with the same story and said hey you have to pay 15 dollars a month but gw2 is free. I would be playing gw1 and never touch GW2. But what am I… Im just 1 player to your millions so why should this matter to you guys. GW1>gw2. If you never got to play gw1 in its time i feel for you but if you can get passed the outdated graphics it really is the best mmo ever made. I started playing gw1 again to really go over the great story again. If you guys have/play/or think about getting GW1 let me know because I’ll add you to the guild.

Ive played gw1 since day 1 and what a balanced game that was. Gw2 is great but the classes at this point are more broken then I have seen ever. Thieves are out of control. Its the only class that makes anyone else feel like a sitting duck when you fight them and no chance. In WvW a thief can take a group of 5 out with no problem. Other classes have to give up say Defence for Major offense. Thief gives up nothing because if you cant see them wtf are you suppose to do. If you go in PvP and spectate any thief, Its auto attack and heartseeker and that’s it. Its pathetic how retarted strong this class is. I have all classes at 80 and spent so much time on each class and thief is out of control. Ranger is my favorite class and they are the most broken class I have seen. It puts shame to the ranger in GW1. Wheres apply poison or fire arrows or any preprations ANYTHING! Thieves need a major major nerf and the other classes need more time and thought cause the more I play gw2 pvp and wvw it really is sad that thief owns everyone. Now ya you can beat a thief but you have to have skills ready for them.Gw2 isn’t suppose to be like this because in gw1 every build could compete with other builds. Tell me how you go from a game with 500 skills for a profession/2nd profession to a game with like 60 skills for one character and its this unbalanced…… As a long time arena net player You guys need to understand that it isn’t just me saying this. Its sooooooo many people on gw complaining about this. And the ones that aren’t are the people auto attacking/heartseeker other classes…… = / This is a really sad turn to gw2 and really needs to be thought over. The living stories are great and all but to be honest it would be nice to take a break from them and have you guys worry about stuff other then that. Stuff that’s more important like the characters of your game. That’s the core of your game and if your characters aren’t balanced theres no reason to play this game…. Its cool your living story is great but whats the point of having these stories if people aren’t happy playing your classes. You guys really need to think this through because coming from gw1 I would never expect gw2 to be so broken like this. At first people from gw1 said gw2 sucked and would never play it. I thought they were crazy but now I understand why they would say that. Gw1 is such a better balanced game then gw2. You guys are the same team and I understand a new game and new ideas but its like everything good from gw1 got thrown out the window…..(ex:templates) It just seems like you guys Buff a class so hardcore and the class you buffed just destroys until you realize man we need to nerf this class again….Wash and repeat and that’s how your classes get so broken. I played gw1 since day1 and was waiting for gw2 since 2008 and was so happy it finally came out but im not happy with how its turned out in the first year when it comes to diversity and the broken classes. In gw1 nobody ever ran the same build and in GW2 its like you force yourself to go down a trait line you really dont want to go down but if you don’t your class blows. I hope you guys take this serious because I don’t only speak for myself. I will continue to play gw2 but if the classes stay this broken then I wont be around much longer as others wont be either.

-Res rushing: I dont think it should be the way it is now because to me its not the lack of teamwork, its better stradetgy to have people come back and get there to help. Some of the bosses are as tough as they need to be so taking that away is kind of not needed.
-Banking karma: We should be able to bank our karma like we do our gold. I think it should be accessable to all your players and not just individually spread out.
