So a question to everyone that likes the new dailies.. Is there no compromise? Cause you guys like it that makes it the only way, the best way? Get the kitten out of here. People are posting here to let Anet know of their complaints, its a completely valid argument here with the new dailies. There are changes that can be made to make both sides happy. There are a lot of good suggestions here in the midst of all the QQing.
And if you dont like it, it should be removed and the old system brought back? Cause you guys that dont like it removing it is the only way. Is that your point? (by the way, there are threads filled with positive suggestions, but they keep getting moved to page 2 because everyone is just posting complaints in here).
Anyway this is probably due to the fact that all the “changes” people who want the old dailies suggest are pretty much to bring the old dailies back. If your compromise is to change the new dailies things like “get 20 kills” and “dodge 15 times” and “do any 5 events anywhere”, then thats a valid opinion, but many of us dont see the point of counting that as an ACHIEVEMENT. Many people would agree that having more than 4 daily options available is a good thing, as long as they are still some kind of ACHIEVEMENT, not just being handed something for nothing (which you still get from the daily log in).
Along with this, 2 other pieces of feedback. One being that having daily fractal and daily scale 1-10 fractal on the same day is just silly, and hopefully an oversight. Second is that while having 2 fractal achieves at once is annoying, I love the new system during holidays. I didnt have 30+ minutes that it would have taken to do the dailies in the old system, but i was able to spend a minute just to log on, which was great because I wont lose the laurels I need badly for them alts.
Did i say anywhere that i want it back the way it was… thats why i said compromise….. we can keep the daily system the way it is now and still have more choice.. or is that too hard for you to realize..
I can agree with the majority of your post. The NPE single-handedly stopped the last two people i knew irl from playing and i haven’t leveled an alt since it came out.

That doesn’t answer my question though. If they added more choices but this choices were more time consuming or difficult than the existing choices, would they satisfy you?
Well that depends, but then again i never found the old dailies time consuming or hard either, as a matter of fact so easy to the point that if you didn’t sit in LA the entire time you were logged in they would get done in a very reasonable amount of time without having to think about it. So if by more choices you mean options similar to the old dailies than i would be more satisfied.
So did dungeons. I couldn’t get those dungeon armour skins by playing WvW.
And those fractals, having skins impossible to get while running a world boss train.
And those dang PvP rewards, that I can’t get by doing karma train in EOTM.
Get the point?
Yeah, but that has always been that way.. for people that liked the old daily system we just had a facet of the game taken away from us which is getting a reward for playing the way i want to. Now i can just log in, collect my hero cookie and sit in LA.
I can live with the new system. I can live with my “special” reward for logging in. but come on, give us more options. Adding more choices and more freedom where to do dailies like before shouldn’t hurt the new system for people that like it.
What I really don’t get is why people are so concerned about doing the daily anymore?
For me it’s not that i am concerned about doing the daily anymore but in its previous format with the laurel attached it was a hook to get me playing the game. If i was bored i would log in to do the daily and more often than not i would end up finding something else to do like running dungeons with my guild, whatever. The only time this week i played was when i was doing guild missions (which more often than not i would be able to finish the dailies before just by doing that) the rest of the week i just logged in to collect the free reward…..
Now the new daily setup.. I hate pvp and wvw so i am stuck with the pve selection, sure it doesn’t take a lot of time but its time i have to go out of my way to do meaningless errands and if i can only play for a hour a day the new dailies can take up a decent portion of that time.
I know i don’t need to do the dailies, especially if i am not chasing after ap but the fact is for me the new daily setup does not motivate me to log in to PLAY the game. I still have a lot of fun with this game but with the amount of other games to play without that little motivation to log and PLAY the game i find myself not playing nearly as much.
In the end i am not saying i hate the new daily format… I just want more choices… not less, period. I really don’t think that is a unreasonable thing to ask for….

like i said before, purist PvE players just wanna complain.
While i will say is all this complaining might be a little overboard, i do feel as tho i have been given the middle finger by anet. Now that being said at least i don’t have to do the dailies for the laurel.
The format of this new update as a whole i think is good but they need to bring back the more open ended dailies for the pve section imo. I really don’t think we’d be seeing all this hate if we still had for example: daily event completion instead of queensdale event completion….. And today… Ascalonian vista viewer… i have to say i felt really proud of myself for going to a vista i already looked at, felt like a achievement to me…. Give the pve section of the dailies more freedom and i think everyone would probably be happy.
While i will say that alot of people are making a bigger deal about this than they should be i really have to agree with some of the hate. For me before the update the way i played the daily would just get done whether i was doing guild missions or helping out a friend. Now i have to go out of my way to do them even if it only takes 10-15 mins.
Another gripe i have is what happened to just daily kills, daily recycler, and all those other more broad pve dailies. if they brought back the dailies that give you more freedom to go where you please i would be 100% for this update.
Now really the only reason i can live with this is that laurels aren’t tied to the dailies anymore. So now i can just avoid it completely..
Yeah, was just doing some of the achievements for Meeting the Asura. Made a dumb mistake right at the end and got caught. lets just say i won’t be going for the achievements unless i can skip the dialog. its so painful going through all that after the first time.
