Guild Wars 2

Donari.5237:

So if you are on NA and can play during afternoons/evenings eastern time, shoot me a PM.

Thank you very much for your offer. <3 But I’m on EU, plus online during CEST evenings.

Burtnik.5218:

Not being able to bring yourself to do anything is nothing else but laziness.

Yes, sir, you’re absolutely right. There can possibly be no other reason, why would someone feel like the most useless trash ever and why could anyone be convinced that whatever they just look at, not to mention touch, falls apart. Yes, it’s just laziness! So simple! Thank you, for your brilliant psychological analysis.

Burtnik.5218:

What you described is not a introversion but some serious unhealthy behavior.

I agree it’s not introversion, but more than “unhealthy behaviour” it looks like depression (or something very similar). And that’s serious business, sir. Very difficult to deal with. No, I’m not saying it shouldn’t be dealt with, it definitely should. But the only possible first step is to know what you’re up against. (and this is were I stop, since I’m quite floating away from the “introverts-play-games” topic)

I’m this weird kind of introvert. I love talking with people, of course only with people I have something relevant or interesting to talk about. But big or noisy groups are very exhausting for me. Also there’s the factor of really bad episodes of depression and anxiety, which make me mostly keep to myself, unless someone else brings up some really, really interesting topic. Oh, and did I mention my social skills are almost non-existent?

Because of the reasons above, I learnt it’s the best if I play any online game solo, with occasional random group activity.

In the game I played before I moved to GW2, I was in an equivalent of guild, where was also a guy, who couldn’t stand, if the chat box didn’t move for 10 seconds. From my perspective it looked like his most important reason to play was ‘socialising’. Usually, when I logged in, I was flooded with questions like: “How are you? How was your day? How was your work?” Internally, I was screaming: “Why do you care? Why should I tell you? Stop interrogating me, you’re not my mom!” But because I was raised to be polite, my answers were: “I’m fine. Normal. Sorry, I have to go.”

So, when I started playing GW2, I decided to not join any guild. And so far, it works perfectly. I run around, kill stuff, gather stuff, craft stuff… Sometimes I join some crowd event or get invited to mega group during Tarir siege. And I like it this way. Yes, this playstyle means I’ll never get to group-exclusive content or never kill Mordremoth, because on top of being not-exactly-social, I’m also very bad player and I can’t find any justification for why should I bother someone to carry me, especially when I don’t have any gold to pay for their time. But other than that, I really enjoy the way I play this game.

And here’s another one. This time a gift for my friend’s birthday. Yes, the text at the bottom is “Hope’s just a sunrise away.” (yes, pun intended)

A bit of backstory: Since the first moment I heard the song “Fear Not This Night”, I wanted to make a pillow with that theme, but I had no idea how to actually grasp it. Then I noticed my friend, who also plays GW2, would have birthday soon. So I sent her a quick GW2 questionnaire and after she replied, I spent about two hours of googling and hour of sketching, before the final idea fully formed. Of course, when I started embroidering, I had to simplify that idea a lot, but in the end, I quite like it. And the friend liked it too, so I’d call it success.

Egrimm Van Horstmann.7921:

I have a necro that didn’t have to give up his ranged attacks to fight Clerics but my Engineer, Ranger, and Warrior had to.

Do I understand it correctly, that you want the ability to change the profession on the fly, in the middle of map (or anywhere), because some classes work better against some mobs and other classes work better against other mobs?

That’s quite a nice composition. Very pleasant to look at.

Wow, that’s pretty.
How did you make the golden pattern? Embroidery? Print? Paint? Something else?

1. Counting snowflakes in Icegate Gorge
2. A pyromaniac visiting Divinity’s Reach
3. Brand new purple magic from Lake Desolann
4. A glider crafted from slain mordrem parts
5. Who said oozes can’t be miners?

Here’s my Viola. Yes. I know. Generic purple butterfly. But I love purple and I love butterflies.

I’ve started playing GW2 only recently, but I’m completely mesmerised by… ehm… Time-Travelling Butterflies of Doom!

So I’ve created this little pillow to keep me company off-line.

My Vanilla Warrior is so OP she can use 3 axes at once, she has insane CLEAVAGE!

(Yes it was cheap, but I dont care!)

My warrior dual wields warhorns, because she’s… guess what?

(Now I can clearly imagine every single one of my characters facepalm after reading this.)

Hello kytos!
Wow, this is amazing. Your voice is lovely and very pleasant to listen to. Your singing too, of course.
Although few times you sounded a bit unsure. Don’t be! It’s really great. So throw all your confidence into your next recording(s), I look forward to hear more.
