Guild Wars 2

ProtoGunner.4953:

I just wonder why a really unimportant item like this hair style kit (WTF are we all 16 year old lipstick chicks) is one of the most expensive items in the game. I changed my hairs once or twice and cost me 250 gems each. Really guys, GET A GRIP!

Well, I would love to be able to change my char hairstyles anytime without worry about real money. It’s pretty awesome.
An perma wardrobe charge thingie would be much more awesome… but of course it’s not happening anytime soon.
Different people, different tastes. I really enjoy dressing my chars. (Not my charrs, I don’t have any, the big cats are kinda ugly!!)

Gah, I don’t want anything like Liadri.
I still have nightmares about her. Was so frustrating.
The rest of the gauntlet was challenging… but Liadri was just despair.

Uh… I just hope that the devs doesn’t add things like Liadri.

Everytime I remember her I just go and cry in a corner. So many time wasted, wasn’t even fun, just despair and suffering… and for what? For nothing. Never again. I learned my lesson, when anet says that someting is “challenging” and when the forums says that is “too easy” I need to run and hide asap.

The funny in a weird and sad way is that the rest of the gauntlet was fun… sure, I died a few… ok, a lot of times until I managed to find the correct combination of weapon and skills, or some good soul gave me a awesome advice or sometimes was just blind luck.
But Liadri… shivers

Now, excuse me, but I need to go and cry in that corner.

Rym.1469:

Beacause human female heavy armors show less body and breasts than medium and light armor.

See, this is the proof that we need more skimpy armors!!

Dwaynas Avatar.1562:

I remember the Devs talking about the high difficulty of the achievements for this new living story and that not everyone can do them.
So now I’m here to tell you that this didn’t happen, the Achievements are
WAY TOO EASY, none challenged me, even without a guide at release, I completed every single one on my first try, except the NO TRICKS one – the fail caused by a
bug.

So PLEASE make it more challenging, I play the story, enjoy it for ~1hour, (it really got good now in Season 2) then replay it for the achievements ~1hour – then I end up having nothing to do than grind for Geodes, go back to PvP or WvW.
Stand to your words and make some Achievements REALLY hard, so only 1% or less of the players will manage to complete them, even Crown Pavillion Liadri was too easy.

But a huge + for don’t giving us grind achievements, I liked them, because they gave me something to do, but at the same time I hated them because they where so boring xD.

I want something I need hours and hours to complete, even if it’s just one achievement

Anyone else feeling so?

Well, I never managed to beat Liadri. And I tried… a lot.
I actually ended unninstalling the game, to stop myselft for farming more tickets and triying again. Was so… so… infuriating.
So, no, I prefer something more, doable.

Something only doable for 1% of the playerbase seems like a waste… why make something to please only a 1% of all people?

SnowHawk.3615:

One day there will be a fantasy game that does something no fantasy or game has ever done yet- make no skimpy non sexualized female characters. But then people will complain about the game being too prude or something else that’s stupid.

Well, sounds a bit boring. Like WOW WotlK amors or something. That was fun… in BC the trend was the clown style… in WotlK they fixed it making all boring and gray.

Why can’t sexualize both genders?

Well, I still haven’t played the new content.
I still triying to finish the personal story of my warrior.

Sadly, before the Second Season start I unninstaled the game. Stupid Liadri… and I only have it installed in a not-so-good for gaming notebook.
So, I’m struggling to play now.
And since I used the free space on my desktop… I guess that it will take me a while to start playing the second season.

Hechicera.9816:

I’ve been commenting on threads like this for decades, being a female in gaming.

Choice, which is what OP wanted, is always good. To the posters that said, throw realism out the window, that’s good too. Rather than have players come argue about which opinion wins, and for which armor, just give players choices. More choices equal more gamers happy with how their character looks and thus more money.

Gaming, as an industry, also needs to be a tad less … obtuse. More women game, and many more women, gaming and non-gaming, control more of the household budget now. While ANet doesn’t 100% fall into this trap, only young teen males being happy with the choices will confine the game to heavy competition in a saturated space, with less people willing to help them buy it. Honestly, ANet isn’t half bad with options compared to much of the genre. They should keep it up though, and I support OP.

ThiBash.5634:

Then again, given that Anet had the guts to add a lesbian couple to the game, I’m still waiting for them to have the guts to openly sexualize a male character by giving them skimpy outfits.

That isn’t guts. Especially if one was hot for anything with a pulse in the writing too: it was pure pandering. Guts isn’t adding lesbians wanting action, it would be adding a respected male gay couple who were committed and leaders in their community.

So, when they’re lesbians it’s pandering but if they were male gays it’s guts.
Nice message there.

And anyways, as I said in the old thread, we need more choices.
More skimpy armor for both male and female, and more kitten-sauron-looking armor for both female and males.

And while they’re on it… can we have school uniforms? Tera have them. Not the male ones, by the way. Do both Anet and you can beat the guys of Tera!!

Kasjory! I love Kas and Jory.

And Taimi cuteness.
Loved the bazaar too. The cuterace is great.

Well, again, I want to thanks to all the people who gave advice and tips. You people rocks. Thanks a lot.

And sorry about biting the troll bait before. That’s was inexcusable of my part. Sorry.

I give up, by the way. Even uninstalled the game to refrain myself to farm more tickets and try again.
It’s just more frustration that I can handle.

And about the mini… I don’t care about minis anymore. Being a mini collector is not a realizable goal after all.
I probably will come back to the game when the season 2 begins. But I will play without even triying to do the “challenging content”. I learned my lesson.

Sorry for the bother. But, well, this is a thread to rage about Liadri. And boy, she made me rage hard.

Well, I only support the idea of the name change is the new name is “The cuterace” or “The world’s cutest stampede”.

The Doly race is awesome.

Rouven.7409:

Ashen.2907:

I had assumed that the emphasis for something of this sort would be on instanced content. Open world content is entirely too subject to variables outside a player’s (or team’s) control for what I suggested (or death penalties for that matter).

Ok, sorry, since a death penalty is usually universal I assumed this would be universal as well.

Do you think, and disclaimer I don’t do them, do you think that something like this would make fractals more appealing? Because from what I hear here on the forums they are too easy.

Should hard-core instanced content like fractals, maybe gauntlet (?), get either harsher (death) penalties or less forgiving circumstances like your idea?

Wa… wait a moment!! The gauntlet… well, not the gauntlet, Liadri is frustrating enough already!! Don’t need anything to make it worse.
You can add more gambits or something like that.
But for people that can’t defeat her making things even more frustrating is a bit too much!!

And I don’t get why people want to make GW2 harder, meaner and more hardcore. GW2 is supposed to be different. A nicer game.

Well, I don’t even think about having a legendary.
I don’t have that many hour to play.

But I have my little fun. I only have one lvl. 80. And I’m loving leveling my alts. At my own pace. Taking my sweet time to admire the places. Joining other people for events and champions.
I dislike the PVP and don’t plan to do PVP in the future, at least for now. But PVE is giving me tons of fun.
Except Liadri, she only brings despair and sorrow. The rest of the gauntlet is cool.

Zaxares.5419:

Whereabouts do you live? It sounds as if you’re having the same problem as me; I live in Australia, so my 200ms (on average) ping means that the game frequently thinks I’m a split second behind where my screen shows me to be, meaning I sometimes get killed by Visions or shadowfalls hitting me even though I should be safely out of range. (It also sometimes won’t let you pick up light orbs for the same reason.) This is a VERY annoying handicap, but it can be overcome. (There’s no shame in losing if you can’t overcome this though; it’s a bit like going into a boxing match half-blindfolded.)

One thing to note is that the light orbs disappear ~10 seconds after being generated, regardless of whether or not you’re holding them. That means you need to grab them and throw them asap.

Some more tips to survive shadowfalls and Visions:

- The Visions can be Blinded to make their explosion miss. Other than that, only Evades or Invulnerable skills will protect you against them; their explosion goes right through blocks or skills like Endure Pain.

- The Visions turn at a much slower rate than you do. This means that it’s easier to avoid them by running in small circles around them than by running away from them. Use that to your advantage and to bunch them up together so they all run into a single light pool (helpful if you’re trying for the 8 orbs achievement).

- The shadowfalls can be avoided through evades, blocks, invulnerability or damage immunity skills. This means you should have at least 1 or 2 “panic button” skills that you can use if you can’t get out of shadowfalls. When I did this on my Warrior, I had 2: Endure Pain and Shield Stance. Coupled with your dodges, that should keep you fairly safe from shadowfalls.

- Similar to the Visions, it’s easier to avoid the shadowfalls if you run in circles closer to the center of the arena. This means you have to move shorter distances to get to safety, and if you have an innate 25% speed boost, you’ll still be able to hobble from one safe spot to the next even if you’re crippled by Liadri.

Yeah, must be something like that. I live in a third world country with a third world country ISP. I always have high latency, in every online game. But some games are more forgiving than others.

I tried the shield and the bow skill to survive the clones explosions. Sometimes works. Sometimes not. It’s kinda weird. Same with the shadowfalls. A few times I tried to use the shield stance to survive and … denied!
So, for me it’s more reliable to try to stay always in a respetable range from the clones. But of course, it’s easy to say it, but in the practice…
Well, thanks a lot for the tips!!

IrishPotato.6327:

If you’re really struggling try running sword/warhorn rifle with rabid armor and whatever weapons/trinkets you desire. 6/6/0/0/2 I found a really REALLY easy way to beat her as a warrior. first phase obviously use sword/warhorn to evade all her shiz make sure you’ve got signet of stamina, endure pain, shake it off and dodge food on your bar. Use warrior’s sprint for that increased mobility with your melee weapons and you should beat phase 1 ez as pie. Phase 2 just strafe and use your rifle at all times unless you really need to jump out of the shadows with your sword 2. That’s the method I’ve shown to nearly every warrior I’ve seen running it guildies or not and they all succeeded within a few tries.

Thanks for the advice. I will try switching the shield for the horn.
I already working with a condition build and amor. Maybe the extra mobility can make the difference?

I don’t have too much time to play until the weekend. But maybe I could give it a few tries… if I can found a place not crowded. It’s pretty lame having to wait for the fight. Feels like doing the line to pay taxes or something like that.

Well, thanks for the tips and advice!!

Nokaru.7831:

rincewind.9528:

Anyways, I checked and blinding the clones to not be downed doesn’t work. So it’s just the old dodge or nothing.

This isn’t true. Using Blind on the Visions of Mortality will make their explosions miss you.

What stage are you struggling with? The first or second.

Well, I read about that. But I checked, double checked and don’t work. I used smoldering arrow in the clones and charge them… I ended dead. All the time.
And lost several tickets with the experiment.

And I struggle in the first phase. Sometimes I pass to the second. But always some clone get me after that. Everytime.
And those shards keep dissapearing, sometimes when I’m about to thrown them.
It’s infuriating.

Again, tried to beat Liadri.
Rage.
Ragequit.

I’m now going to play something that can make me forget about it.

Honestly If I ever meet in person the responsible for the Liadri fight design I going to kick him/her in the most sensitive spot. And then I’m going to drop a piano over him/her.

IrishPotato.6327:

Yes it’s frustrating but that’s what a challenge is. They shouldn’t add “anti-gambits” or change her fight at all. She can be beaten, has been beaten, easily and by a lvl 2 with white armor. Rince if you tell me what class and build you try using I can help you out instead of spamming all over “I want the cute mini”. I’ve seen you say that in nearly every single post on every possible liadri topic and it’s quite annoying.

If this is challenge I don’t want challenge. None. Zero. Nothing.
Why are you against “anti-gambit”, doesn’t affect people and gives the people that have issues with this a chance.
I honestly don’t know why I can do it.
But between the clones spawning like hell, the shards dissapearing all the time, the clones killing me being not close enough to do it, the camera when the stupid rift spawn on the edge of the arena… it’s too much.
It’s frustrating and stupid, not challenging and fun.

And why my wanting the mini rant bothers you?

Anyways, I checked and blinding the clones to not be downed doesn’t work. So it’s just the old dodge or nothing.
I guess that my only improvement left is getting energy runes.
And I’m a warrior by the way. Actually I’m using a 6/2/2/4 build.

Or I can forget about this stupid thing and be bitter about it forever. And rant about this is every single opportunity.

I hate this.

IrishPotato.6327:

Taygus.4571:

blessing nosferatu.3784:

You are just overreacting. I don’t understand why not having a mini is such a big deal.
Again there is so much casual contnent in this game , but as soon as comes something that you can’t complete is the end of the world.
Casual means that you don’t have to invest too much time to have fun/complete the game , in fact liadri is a short fight and doesnt require a high end gear/build

And I don’t understand why asking for having multiple ways to get something, is such a big deal.
Not having a mini ruins collections.

but it’s fine, anet is gearing more content for players like you. I’m not pleased with the idea of more liadri type content.
I can complain about that. It’s not what I bought this game for.

Because for once they added content that had some, (not much because of how easy she is) novelty to the mini that you acquired. If there were multiple ways to get the mini, what real accomplishment would there be?

Accomplishment? It’s a mini. It’s not about accomplishment, it’s about a cute mini!!
People, you all are missing the point.
If you want the accomplishment you have the achievment that proves that you did that. You have you title so you can show to all those low peasants like me that you’re superior and we must adore as gods.
But the mini, its cute and everyone should be able to have the cute!! Cute is for everyone!! Cute is for the people!!!

No, but seriously. If the Liadri mini was avaiable to others means I wouldn´t have bothered with the Gauntlet. And I wouldn’t be raging here.

Devik.9852:

As others have stated, you should really check your stats and play style.

For example see if other weapons work better, different stats, utilities, etc.

I assure you, all of those people in game with the title are not hardcore players.. they vested enough time into changing their styles and what not until they got it.

Yeah, that worked well in the previous encounters.
Changing weapons, tactics, retraiting, changing sigils and skills eventually worked. And I avanced until I reached Liadri.
Sometimes with a bit or much of luck even.

But for Liadri… the problem are the insta-KO.
I think that I got the idea. Need to do it right.
Time better the blind of the bow attack so those cursed clones don’t kill me.
And maybe I would need to get those superior Energy Sigils, for an extra dodge… but those things are expensive…

Gah… it’s frustrating… and once the frustation starts, I need to quit triying, because I start to do worse and worse… I hate this.
I would be so so so happy if I manage to do it. Because 1) I will get the mini 2) I will be able to forget the gauntlet forever!!

Fafnir.5124:

Currently there is no death penalty armor repair was only one but they removed it. Waypoint costs are cost to travel not rez you don’t see increased cost if you are dead. Death effects has large impact on game play. If you can repeat until you win i think it takes away from the prestige of wining honestly. If you think a few silver is something to fear when people are making 100s of g a week i think you are really getting your priorities wrong.

How about a death in a dungeon should comprise of 20% of the final reward of the dungeon.

Prestige? What prestige? Isn’t this game about having fun?

And 100 gold per week? How can you make that much?

Something cute?
So I can make anything else than human or norm?

No offense but the Sylavri are unsettling to me. And the Asura are a little creepy… except a few. And Charr… are Charr.

(Oh, God, I just realized… I’m a Charrphobe!!)

Why people want to do the game more frustrating?

I’m already on the edge. This past few days I’m triying to beat the cursed Liadri. Oh, boy, I ragequited so many times.
And you want to do it MORE frustrating?

Why!?

Why can’t we have a relaxed and fun game? Why everything must be hard and mean?

Zaxares.5419:

@rincewind: I’d sell you my Mini Liadri if I could. While I did enjoy the challenge of beating Liadri and having the little memento of my victory, I’m not a miniature collector and I honestly wouldn’t mind selling her for extra gold.

Don’t give up, however. The Queen’s Gauntlet is returning festival content, which means it’ll certainly be back again next year. By then you may have much better equipment and more skill/experience, enabling you to beat Liadri. As I said, last year I beat Liadri after 70+ tries in a combination of Masterworks and Rares. This year I beat her in just 12 attempts with mostly Exotics and a few Rares. By next year, I might be decked out in all Ascended and kill her in just one go!

Thanks for the encouragement!
I’m not sure if gear will help. Maybe two of those superior energy runes can help me with a extra evade now and then. But the one-shots are the problem for me.

Always something get me… strangely sometimes things that aren’t close enough to hit me…
And the white shards that you must throw to Liadri… those stupid thingies keep dissapearing… even when I have it in my hands!!
“Now, lets throw this… heh!! Where it go!?!?”
Frustrating. Very frustrating.

And for the skill, I’m not getting any more skillful. If anything my skill and dextery will decrease with time.

Can’t we have anti-gambits?
Like, having to thrown 2 instead of 3 white thingies to enter phase 2.
Or having decreased Liadri Clones spawn?

I mean, if there’s gambits to cather good players why not anti-gambits to cather bad ones? And I must be a bad player, because can’t beat her.
Just give another title if the player beat her with anti-gambit, like “easy modo Liadri stomper” and for the ones doing Liadri with all gambits, “Super hardcore Liadri Slayer, a winner is you!”.
Well, maybe the titles name can use a bit more work, but you get the idea.

Honestly, I just want the mini. I don’t care about difficulty and challenges.
If I wanted challenges I would be playing Touhou or something like that.

Tim.6450:

rincewind.9528:

And dont make me talk about the white orbs that pulls you. Several times I died at the same start because one stupid ball spawned in the first Liadri Insta-KO attack.
A ticket lost without even triying.

You know you can kill those, right?

Well, if I would be capable of doing everything perfectly I wouldn’t be here raging.

I going to try another day. No more gauntlet for today or I gonna end hanging myself or something.
I gonna end my dailies and play something so I can forget about the stupid Liadri.

Was busy in the Bazaar doing the cute race.
Then I tried to beat the Gauntlet because I REALLY want the Liadri mini. Cute!

Finally I reached Liadri… and the suffering started.
I ended ragequiting yesterday and went to play Tera instead.
Now I tried again… even worse… the lag was worse today. Ragequited again.

Now? I’m venting here my hate for that stupid fight. Stupid Liadri!!!
I just need to be lucky once, and I could forget than that cursed Gauntlet even existed.

Honestly, I don’t care about the Gauntlet. It’s stupid.
But have a stupid mini as reward. And the stupid me wants that mini. So I gonna try the stupid fight until I ragequit the game or run out of tickets.
But, it’s stupid.

I can’t understand how anyone could have though that having the gauntlet in the same map as the Boss Blitz was a good idea.
The ring need to be instanced.

In a fight like Liadri you can’t have lag. Nothing. Honestly I got sick of being killed by things that weren’t there. Or teleporting Liadris.
And dont make me talk about the white orbs that pulls you. Several times I died at the same start because one stupid ball spawned in the first Liadri Insta-KO attack.
A ticket lost without even triying.

In a single player offline game I’m kinda sure that the fight would be much more doable.

Anyways, my input. Please anet, don’t force us casual cute things collector to suffer like this anymore.
You can give the hardcore crew their content. But please, don’t mix the cute and the masochist things.

I still have like 50-60 tickets… I will keep triying, but it’s an exercise of frustration. And masochism.

How about making raids?

So people who want harder content can go and do them.
And people who don’t want, can just ignore them.

Chak Sabersting.8359:

Love the liadri fight! It’s the only engaging fight in the game for me. I’d be very disappointed if she got nerfed. If anything, make it harder next time with a new boss! Too many Blazing Lights running around.

Only if they make the mini obtaineable by another means. I don’t care about the title… but I want that mini.

Stupid gauntlet and their cute rewards.

Well, I got both the Panda and the Doly Tonic first because I couln’t decide wich one I wanted more.
So, I would choose Panda. Because cute.

Venirto.4208:

rincewind.9528:

25000 tokens?
That´s like… mmmh…. 500 cuteraces.
It’s insane… you people really grinded that long for the potions? Sounds like slave work!!

You had to visit 30+ places everyday for over a week to get enough heirlooms for one item. Hours of running around…

That’s sound horrible. What was anet thinking?

Natural selection, guys.
The ones that can outrun a centaur survive. The others… well, not.

I would love to see two new classe.

- Monk - A bare fist fighter. Capable to use her inner energy to boost her defense (iron body) or her offense (iron fist). Could have different stances, depending of the playstyle.

- Puppeter - Can have marionettes as pets. Attacking with an army of puppets!! Maybe suicide bombers puppets. Ranged puppets, melee puppets, buffers puppets. You can have choose wich ones you want at certain circunstances.

Who’s is with me with the idea?

Nick.6972:

I still fail to see how are events dynamic.
Lets say it’s a generic MMO “X” and instead of taking quests, they randomly activate/spawn all over the world and everyone can participate without talking to any NPC.
Is the fact that they activate “randomly” what makes them dynamic?

Guess that the dynamic part is that completing an event can open another… and completing that can open another… or failed one can open another.
All of them involve killing thing mostly. But hey! Killing things is fun!!

Like the Nabo Terrace, failing to defend it open the save the prisioner event, and then the retaking.
It’s fells more… lively than your average MMORPG.

But, nothing wrong with regular quest either.

Yesterday after that Liadri burned me out of the game I played Tera for a while. With my cute elf archer I rode to the next quest hub. Gatherer all the quest and went to commit genocide on the local fauna.
Was fun.
It’s more static that the GW2 experience. But it’s fun either way.
Specially the BAMs. As an archer. As a warrior they’re a pain in the kitty…

Just don’t put a mini or something cute as reward.

I hate the current Gauntlet. I just need to get lucky enough to not step in any stupid clone, get my Mini Liadri and forget the existence of that cursed place forever.

Well, I’m back since the end of the season 1.
I quitted because the running against the clock of the Living World. I got tired of it.
Tried to start playing again a few times, but being lost and not knowing what was happening… and seeing the dreaded timer again made me quit again fast.

Now with the new system of the Story Journal, I have high hopes for the S2.
Aaaand of course, I expect to see more of Kas and Jory. And Taimi.
Kas and Jory are big part of why I’m back to the game.

Tobias Trueflight.8350:

Teofa Tsavo.9863:

By your logic we also don’t “need” cosmetic armor skins because we already have armor.
Don’t need weapons skins cause we already have weapons.

Basically, we don’t need change, options, or new features because we have a status quo.

GG, target market.

Hey there, strawman, we meet again.

The main viable reason people don’t want mounts is the lack of reasoning why they would exist. Tyria doesn’t have horses, and there’s not really many other beasts which are of the type normally ridden. Dolyaks, perhaps. Golems, but that’s really only asura.

There aren’t even horses in Cantha, or Elona.

The usual other reasons thrown out are “don’t make it like WoW”, “don’t add another collectable”, “there’s not much reason to have them for movement aid when there’s WPs”. Discuss if you like, but all of this is off the topic of the original post.

Wait. So we don’t have mounts because there no horses in Tyria?
If the Asura has their golems… why the other races can not think something.
The charr have a kitten submarine. They surely can invent something. A bicycle for example. I give my full support to the idea of Charrs of bicycles!!
And the human can have… dunno, a rickshaw? Surely in Cantha they will use them.
The norms… they can ride bears. Of course, they barely need mounts… with their height and power surely they can run 2 or 3 times faster than the other races.
And the sylvaril… well, nobody care about the sylvaris.

Oh boy. Yesteday finally reached Liadri.

I must thank to a kind soul that pointed me in the right direction in the deadeye fight. Thanks noble stranger!!

But I must say that… boy, I hate this so much. Frustration level? Over nine thousands.
There’s too much happening in the screen. Half of the times I die for Liadris sneaking in my back. Aaaaand, dead. Again.

The fight feels like doing danmaku.
Sadly, I’m not good in those games either. I never managed to finish any Touhou game… ever in Easy Modo. Ok. This isn’t as insane as a Touhou Boss Fight. But the 3D has it’s disaventages too.
Gah… so much frustration. And only because I just NEED that mini. I must have it. I want it! I want it! I want it! I want it! I want it!!!

Can’t we have a anti-gambit option? I would kill for her spanwing less one-shot shadows. Or having more endurance. Or being able to skip phase 1… I hate doing the phase 1 everytime… it’s like those old games where once you died you must do the boss again… and the boss has like four phases. Oh, the memories are haunting me again!!!

I ended stopping playing the game for the weekend. The risk of smashing the monitor was not worth it.
I need to keep triying later… boy, I feel so masochist doing the gauntlet.
Need a name change “Gauntlet of the Sadist Queen for Masochist Adventurers.”

Well, forget about that. With a shield I managed to pass the pirates.
Triying to pass Deadeye or something like that.
Between the stupid camera and the models not loading is making me start the fighy always with a chunck of health missing…

This is painful… Im hating this so much. SO MUCH.

EDIT: Reached Liadri, reached her second phase… I still HATE this so much!!! And hate more ANET for putting the mini as reward!!! Stupid gauntlet, stupid Liadri!!!

I knew it. It’s useless, I never gonna get the mini.
I can’t even reach Liardri.
The 2nd boss, the pirates are impossible for me.
I’m not even close.
This is depressing… evetything this suffering and despair for a mini that I will never get.

HyruleanHyroe.1473:

rincewind.9528:

Well, now my top great expentation is:

- The season one get implemented in the New Story Journal System.
- I still want more of Kas and Jory.
- And Taimi, don’t forget Taimi.
- Still want the swinsuits, school uniforms and miko outfits.

Don’t forget the cat ears, and tentacles, and lingerie, and bare feet!

*shudder *

Yeah, that’s nice too. I want those too. Well, I can live without the bare feet… why bare feet?

I want a skin for my sword that is a purple tentacle!!!
Then I would feel like… I could… like I could… TAKE ON THE WORLD!!!

Kumion.7580:

I see your point, Lanfear.

I am still concerned about the ways Anet seems to be shutting out new players, but it’s also true 80s will benefit from new progression.

How is shutting out new players?
Before they missed content and story and never could experiment them.
Now If they want they can purchase the missing content… or ignore it and keep playing.

If a new player buy the game, he’s a low level, so can’t participate in the current content. But that content is unlocked, so can be played when the player reach lvl 80.

What’s the problem?

Then add even more glowliness to the legendaries!!!

And we gonna get a Disco!! /dance

Either the OP didn’t consider the consequences of his suggestion, or he is an obvious troll. I’ll play it safe and assume the latter.

If I was an obvious troll you wouldn’t even have to ponder it. That aside…

I did lay out the consequences of my suggestion pretty succinctly, maybe you didn’t read it? You on the other hand did not lay out a single counter point. So maybe you are a troll yourself?

Why can’t be both trolls. Now both are vets, by the way.

No, but seriously.
If you make all content paid you probably will get the same content than before, but paid instead of free. What’s make you think that being paid will guarantee better content?
If they really need more money they will put nice things in the gem store and voila!!

By the way… I really want swimsuits and school uniforms anet.
Give swimsuits and school uniforms and take my gems anet!!!

I’m not sure what the problem is with people that have one.

How it is currently:
If you show up during the two weeks, you can play it. If you don’t show up during the two weeks, you will never see the content again and will never get to experience it. There is nothing you can do.

What it is going to:
If you show up during the two weeks, you can play it. If you don’t show up during the two weeks, you can still play it by choosing whether not to spend 200 gems. Now you have the option of doing something. (And keep in mind gems can be bought with in game gold and you never have to pay a dime of real life money.)

Someone explain to me the problem?

The problem is that juno is obsessed about making all the content paid.

I can’t figure why.

Well, now my top great expentation is:

- The season one get implemented in the New Story Journal System.
- I still want more of Kas and Jory.
- And Taimi, don’t forget Taimi.
- Still want the swinsuits, school uniforms and miko outfits.

Sadly, nothing is free.
You must pay with money or time. If you don’t have neither… well, you’re in a complicated situation.

Criticizing is fine if it is something that helps the game itself, for what type of game it is. I know you care I care too. Like Nat I would like new weapon skills, and some other things in the game. I do not want this game to emulate other games, because that is what I am used to. I want this game to be different not like other games. Of course some improvements can be suggested. As long as it is about this game and no others.

Well, if other games doing something right, why not emulate it? Because is already used anywhere? So, you want novelty for the sake of the novelty?

People, if you want skimpy dresses and “sexy” pixels and polygons go play every japanese or korean MMO. I mean it. The less clothing you have there, the higher the armor rating…

GW2 goes for a more “serious” approach to armor. Yes, heavy armor is a tin can. What do you want? Steel hot pants? And two bucklers for a bra?

There are a lot of mix and match “sexy” armor combinations in GW2, i see them all the time, so really, no need to add more.

Why having more choices is bad?
We can have “serious” armor, cool armor, cute armor and sexy amor.
The more the merrier, guys.

More variety!! More variety!!

25000 tokens?
That´s like… mmmh…. 500 cuteraces.
It’s insane… you people really grinded that long for the potions? Sounds like slave work!!

As long as they keep the updates flowing and don’t sacrifice forward movement for permanence.

OPEN world CONTENT is going to take a HUGE hit. Expect LESS things like the MARIONETTE encounter, and more like the personal storyline-like instanced content that NO ONE even REMEMBERS.

Not to mention how, IRONICALLY, they’re killing the concept of a LIVING world. If the changes to the OPEN world won’t disappear, what’s the POINT in having a STORYLINE? Imagine how it would be if players defeated SCARLET but her ARMIES never stopped INVADING a given map? Or if she NEVER stopped appearing in the MARIONETTE content even after we had DEFEATED her?

ArenaNet DOESN’T know how to AVOID extremes. Having the ENTIRE season 1 based around TEMPORARY content was Bad. Having the ENTIRE season 2 based around PERMANENT content is BAD, too.

Guys, guys, this dude is using caps in some words!! He must know about this!! We must agree with him!!!

PD: I still don’t kwow what’s that Marionette thing that people talks about? Do you eat it?

Belial missed a spot check. Must have rolled 1 or something.
