Guild Wars 2

Well, I cannot sort the bug thread by replies or views, but apart from the threads collecting lots of threads into one topic this one is among the top if not the top thread in the bug area … maybe you should seriously consider taking back your hack of a fix and reintroduce these anims no matter whether or not you actually develop an almost non required fix for dramatic cutscenes. And just to put this into perspective – yes, I may not quit over this( else I would have done so) – but it counts towards the negatives that accumulate and it has some weight. And I did take breaks from this and other games, sometimes even for very long times when their aggregate disappointment added up enough.
This is a great game with a lot of facets that allows a lot of people to find stuff they like, but it certainly seems like a collaboration of experimental code snippets with no consistency and quite a few unneccessarily ill decisions more often than I’d expect.
Then again maybe I am just getting too old and intolerant after freelancing 30+ years in IT and all the other 400+ replies and 35k+ views are just as worthless.
Kind regards.

Because it has been classified as a bug for this very reason. It’s basically buried in here and it is being dealt with when there are enough resources.

That’s not the point. From my point of view, the current state of NOT having the idle animation – alledgedly to solve some cutscene issues – is a bug and I do not care when they solve the cutscenes issue AFTER they REESTABLISH the IDLE ANIMATIONS as they were.

The posts by Hamfast.8719 are to the point and on par with my feelings about this issue and very nicely and politely stated … and this thread has a heap of views and comments … so why on earth is it so hard to just put the idles back in and then think about whatever cutscene mods later ? How many more people need to get out of just watching this thread and write a post – just like I do here – to make it obvious enough that is was a bad decision that removed something a lot of us loved ?
