A Challenge to GW2 Players: Start a Conversation!

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: sainguine.2870

sainguine.2870

Why? I get in game to get a few things done and blow off steam.the conversation would just be “Hi” followed by a “Hello” and then on to business as usual.the action is fast paced and lends no time to standing around slinging idle chatter.besides ,why talk when i wont see you again anyways-ill go up to the pub and chat with some honeys if i get lonely.Also i have exhausted that aspect of the game ,the chat,since i have been doing it since UO and DAoC-its just boring now

heres the tldr version of wows popularity without your “poetic waxings”.wow had a built in fanbase of blizz fanboys from diablo and starcraft over 10 million strong.

You are sadly terribly wrong. According to Blizzard’s own statements, 90% of the new player base in Vanilla were not Starcraft or Diablo players. In fact, during BlizzCon 1 there was a panel on this (in the Starcraft track) that revealed that WoW polled extremely unfavorably among SC players for its lack of balance and equal footing in PvP.

With the family and my work schedule as it is GW2 works out incredibly for me. When i finally get on i actually have fun and get a few things done.I have played MMO’s since UO and DAoC and too many others to mention and just dont have the 10+ hours a day anymore.It is worth every penny and much more,i would pay a sub.I am used to heavy grinding also from DAoC/Lineage 2 so this game is cake : ). also,at the rate i play it due to a busy schedule content will roll in faster than i can do it,ive burnt out on a million games trying to play them 10+ hours a day.

It’s been suggested—strongly, at times—that I overuse the em dash in my writing. For those unfamiliar with the fancy terms born in the typesetting era, the em dash is the longer version, the very biggest brother, of the hyphen. It’s actually fairly straightforward. We use the hyphen all the time to join two words together in a willy-nillly fashion. There’s a slightly larger version called the en dash that’s used to join two similarly-weighted concepts/words together; for example, you might use one to replace the word “to” in “The West Point football team beat Notre Dame 28 to 14” (hey, I can dream). Meanwhile, the biggest dash—the em dash—is used to indicate a significant break in thought when a simple period won’t cut it.

Me, I have lots of significant breaks in thought. And I don’t like periods much. Thus, the em dash has always been my friend, even before I knew what it was called.

But it’s bad, right? Good, published, experienced authors rarely if ever use it, right?

Not necessarily. It actually comes down to voice, or the way we want our prose to “sound” to the mind’s ear when the reader is—well, reading, which is for the most part what readers do. But check it out yourself. Go snag a couple of books from your bookshelf and read prose from two different authors, just a few paragraphs, right now. Trust me, I’ll wait.

Did you “hear” a difference? Yes? Maybe not. For many of us, including me a year ago, the voice of an author is something we pick up on intuitively in a passive manner, coming out as an “I like the way he writes.” Actually describing the voice in a cognitive fashion, though, is something that requires training and practice to accomplish. I think. Anyway, I’m better at it now than I used to be.

So what’s my voice? Do I want to “sound” more like Stephen King (the other one), or like Douglas Adams, or like Robert Jordan? Well, frankly, I’ve always enjoyed the writing styles that tend toward sub-comedic, the ones that tell a story and occasionally—every couple of pages or so—have you chortling softly, and occasionally even guffawing loudly. The ones that, if you notice, tend to be a kittenoppy and hurky-jerky at times, because that’s what comes across as funny.

Dashes

There are two types of dashes: the em dash (–) and the en (-) dash.

The Em Dash

This is also called the double dash–and rightly so–because it actually consists of two dashes presented without spacing before or after, and used to evoke emphasis (note that the spacing is up for debate as some style guides and writers include a single space before and after the em dash). This kind of dash is often used to “set off an element added to amplify or to digress from the main clause” (Publication Manual of the APA, 2001, p. 291).

i am so tired of Arby’s,i think i am going to go to Arby’s,sit in a booth and complain to random people enjoying their meal about how much the roast beef and cheddar is to small and the reuben isnt a “real reuben”.then i will complain the shake doesnt have the same flavor i am accustomed to and the booths are to oddly colored.sounds silly right-i could always go to Wendy’s,or i could stay in arby’s being an annoyance.maybe you ate to many curly fries to fast ,maybe eat them less often and they wont lose their flavor

Reading these comments make me cry.

‘Go explore, make new friends, help newcomers’ ……………I have no words………………

OP is right, the game’s dead, I got everything I want. WvW is not rewarding, killing invaders/taking keeps etc does not give me anything. Atm WvW is just for the sake of zerging and ‘fun’…

sPvP is as it is, but I’m not interested in it, because it’s completely separated from the rest of the game.

Dungeons are useless.

The trailers, interviews and articles before launch all said there’s gonna be a bit of everything: PvE, large scale and small scale PvP, smth for the ‘grinders’ etc.
Yet it was all a big pile of kitten. Not arguable just a fact. PvE and WvW endgames are all down to ‘fun’, they offer no further progress and no rewards. The game’s absolutely useless after a few weeks. All that is left or reroll or go sPvP.

‘’Well the end game in GW is no different then the end game in most other MMOs, but instead of grinding raids (because GWs doesn’t have ones) you can grind dungeons, grind world events or grind PvP.’’

Have you even played this game ?? You can grind all of that but for what purpose ?
People don’t understand the fact that they give NOTHING. Karma, badges, tokens are all worthless. Karma only used for legendary weapon basically, badges same, unless people actually go for the armor/weps (lol), dungeon tokens are for skins, and I got 2 sets, im done.

The endgame is very different from other MMO’s as there is no endgame besides sPvP, and that’s not really endgame either, sPvP is like a seperate game and you can do it since level 2.

so dont play? noone is forcing you to.see ya

@Muthax. Where are those games now?

Rift floating around a 200k sub base

Swtor- F2P Considered a failure, Founders of Bioware resign more than 75% of staff cut. Server Merged then Merged again.

Tera 50% of staff cut, going F2P servers went from 35 to 3.

The Secret World Lead 2/3 co-creators gone. staff cut 50% going F2P

Rift is hanging in there barely the other 3 have failed in and or around 6 months.

Yup its defiantly me.
