Everyone seems to be missing the point of a review, it is an individuals experience on what they encountered, trying to convince me that what I encountered didnt happen or flawed is like saying “picture or it didnt happen”.
If a tree falls in the middle of a forest, and no one is around, does it make a sound?
See, community college debate class lol
Zelyhn, I have not played tournaments, and therefore have nothing positive or negative to say about them. I find it difficult to believe that tPVP is all you do, but to each their own.
Based on the fact that you are dismissing my post because of one missing factor, I too will be dismissing your observation.
I love the way this dude is speaking….it’s almost like he’s taken a debate class in community college lol.
My experiences do trump all experiences, as everyone elses trumps mine. It is called different points of view, and though everyone has them,no one has to accept them.
You are trying to force me to accept your beliefs as my own, and that is wrong.
Spamming the forums isn’t trying to force us to read your review? Hypocritical AND lifeless……nice.
No walking if no one cares why are there nearly 1500 hits on my blog? And why are you here responding? You should troll another thread
How many of those 1500 opened the page, said F this, and left? Probably 95% lol. The other 4% probably read a paragraph and then said F this. And spamming the forums all day makes you pathetic. No life buddy?
these are indeed my experiences being brought to light.
Except that nobody cares, and you’re being pathetic and spamming the forums with it because you don’t want to believe that nobody cares about something you spent so much wasted time on….
1) noboody cares about Mathiesin or his opinion
2) by posting this over and over you’re really showing how empty your life is lol
So I have enough now to deck 1 of my toons out in ascended gear, but I have some questions.
- What’s the difference between an offensive, defensive, and utility slot?
- Do all ascended items give agony resistance, cause I can’t see the AR on the stats.
Why are only the dragon events showing now, instead of all the chest events?
There a red circle on the ground?
DODGE!
Remember this, and you will succeed in everything you do in GW2. Whether it be PvE, PvP, or WvW

Only things bad about SPvP in this game is lack of duels, and lack of map variation (all of them are point cap/hold). Besides that a lot of improvements and balancing has happened.
My main gripe with GW2 is the fact that everything you do is for gear.
What kept me playing GW1 for so long was the fact that everything you did was for skills.
And all the really cool items were a fun grind to get…instead of sold for real money on a BS gem store….
GW1 had SOOOOO much more flexibility because you could get heroes to run with you and get much more complex with your/your teams build. Here yes, PvE is very easy.
Every update has had a significant amount of new PvE content. As a PvP player primarily I feel a little ripped off (No duels, arenas, or different types of SPvP). As a PvE player you guys really have nothing to complain about though, everything is great besides the lack of raids.
That’s why I run tournaments only lol.
I was wondering how they were going to swing that with Wildstar coming out with all of the tools GW2 should have already. I watched the video on youtube about the datamined UI elements with all the fixins on Wildstar basically everything we expected in GW2 will be in Wildstar at launch.
They say that about every MMO that comes out ever, lots of promises and hopes before launch. Same happened with GW2.
I have hope that after Wildstar releases it will be a good time to work on or finish the expansion for GW2.
Or move onto TESO lol.

Skyhammer looks great
They aren’t doing anything wrong. MMO companies keep their players in the dark about everything anyways. They wait to release new features until the time of year that they can make a profit, things like that.
Considering there isn’t a LFG tool at all….I doubt it lol.
Data miners, gotta love them LFG tool will be coming soon, along with a new PvP map called Skyhammer and lots of other goodies. Check it out.

Temporary Distractions > Permanent Improvements
Anet logic. We don’t want events that happen once, or even once a year that aren’t even that memorable. Focus your time on what people spend most of their time in game doing. Fix dungeons, fix PvP, fix WvW…… This living story BS is getting ridiculous…
Just solo it. It’s not like this is GW1 where stuff like that was really challenging….
It’s a free game, log in and check yourself.
People like you cause Anet to keep wasting time on RNG Gem store trash, and not on making their game better….shame on you.
Pretty much miss everything that made GW1 great. They went to great lengths to make sure all the great things in GW1 was absent in GW2.
Thank you for your very helpful contribution to this thread.
Maybe if we kept the discussion constructive instead of just venting and complaining, we could actually get ANet to respond to the OPs questions. That would be super-lovely.
Probably isn’t going to happen in another frustrating QQ-fest of a thread, though. Think about it! Thank you
What do you want Anet to say exactly? Here is what they’ll say if they post here.
“We are thankful for your input, and would like you to know that mini-games are on our radar.”
AKA: Never gonna happen cause they’re gonna lose players once TES:O comes out, and focus on gem store stuff or more worthless living story stuff in order to keep making money.
Was a good dream though when the game launched. Tons of mini games would have been great.
Small guilds are ripped off in this game. Join a bigger one if you want commendations, you’ll never get them in a small guild.
Even with a team with no mesmers, guardians, or warriors PvE is laughably easy. Why are you concerned with balance in PvE with such a low level of skill required?
They are not interested in meeting the expectations of their customers, and would rather focus their time on temporary events that nobody really cares about (how long were you in southsun before you were done there this month? 2 days?).
Don’t expect duels any time soon, if ever.
Never mind the fact that the most recent update INCLUDED a mini game.
Woah….you mean in 8 months they finally got another one out?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Man that’s impressive. Too bad they said there would be 30 at launch eh…..
They can’t remove them, these are the only things in the game they can compare to raids.
Lol……what a joke to call them raids
They’re too busy adding in temporary events that nobody cares about or particularly likes. Don’t expect them to devote time and resources to add these mini games any time soon, they are opposed to doing what their customers like.
There won’t be a new currency, laurels and badges only, as per the name of the merchant. However, I believe you won’t be able to get ascended gear just with badges, but you will also need laurels too, also, they are adding new WvW-only achievements so players will be able to get 1 laurel per day (and 10 each month) only by playing WvW. Great news overall for WvW
Um….no lol. They’re adding new dailies to the list in WvW, they’re not adding another daily that will give another laurel. It’s just that people will be able to complete their daily solely in WvW. Also, it’s unlikely they’ll cost badges AND laurels, makes no sense.
None of what you said has been posted anywhere, and is pure opinion.
New currency?
So easy to crush hopes.
New laurel and badge merchants, it’s badges, not a new currency.
Finally! I knew there was a reason I had been saving up all those badges. I have almost 5000 to spend on the new ascended items when they go live
Very happy, especially considering I haven’t gotten any ascended items yet lol.
Yeah it doesn’t mean someone spent money, but all it means is that person was lucky….did it take time, skill, or dedication to get like in older MMOs…….no.
Gee…I’m so glad that Anet took an amazing franchise and turned it into a money grubbing RNG fest. Remember when cool items used to cost time, and not money… Glad to see all the people running around with these weapons and know that they spent no effort to get them at all, but instead just opened their wallet.
I want free fast travel like in GW1.
Stealth is a relatively new addition to gaming.
Lol’d and stopped reading here.
The only major change is the viability of Wrinten In Stone builds.
Staff support build will be hurt by Cleansing Water nerf.
Glass canon squishy builds by Mist Form nerf.If you were getting stomped by D/D Bunker Elem : You still will.
NOPE! You guys can’t spam cond removal any more, nor can you heal in mist form. The days of annoying DD bunker eles are over, you guys are just normal now, and will be a fair fight, as opposed to an OP one.
Eles have been massively nerfed, and rangers been massively buffed.
Today ladies and gentlemen, is a good day.
I’ve been playing different classes since I got my Champion Hunter title
ELE NERF HAMMER BOOOOOOMMMM!!!!!!!!!
Ooh I’m going to be having so much fun in tournaments this month
For ranger, go FULL dps. Penetrating shot, and 1500 range, just sit at the back of the group and melt people’s faces. It’s the best thing rangers can bring to a group.
the pre launch optimism is so funny now
“Remember, those are only 2 of the 30 activities that are going to be in the game, and they sound amazing! I can already see myself spending days just playing activities throughout all the cities!”
Priceless.
Tell me about it. Over 7 months later and we still ONLY have Keg brawl. At least we have bar brawl achievements….. Oh but wait…it’s not in the game rofl. Less time on SAB, more time on mini games please.
Make map chat across all the main cities (Divinities Reach, Hoelbrak, Etc). This would be amazing, please do it Anet.
GW2 Bosses with Dark Souls difficulty???………………..YES PLEASE! Man mastering each of the boss fights in Dark Souls was the best part, such a rewarding challenge!
