Story Skipped or Changed? [merged]

ANet, you need to add a quest to allow people to change their Order (and that will allow them to do the Tribal Races quests for that Order if they haven’t already done Claw Island).

You cannot tout the ‘personal quests’ and encourage people to care about the choices they make, and then shug and say ‘too bad, we can’t help you’ when a bug erases the choices.

Honestly I can’t believe there isn’t data visible on your end that allows you to alter alignment in case of situation like this, but since that’s a moot issue, adding the option to change Orders (and giving people with this bug free access to it) should be a no-brainer on your part. This is a serious issue for a game that brags about ‘personalized story experience’, and you cannot just ignore it and tell folks to deal with it.

Make the final fight against Zhaitan a Cutscene.

in Personal Story

Seriously. The entire sequence after you defend Zojja while she powers the laser should just be an in-engine cutscene of the dragonfly winged ship circling the spire Zhaitan is on and blasting the crap out of him.

This would solve the main problem of the final fight being a monotonous ‘Spam 2 while staring at a bad camera angle of a cool boss that you can’t even see’ experience. The added snake head mobs don’t fix anything — they actually ruin it more because at least when I did the fight, we hadn’t killed them all when we finally pinged down Zhaitan so they were still all over the deck attacking us as the celebrating NPCs poured out (ignoring them completely).

The entire final fight with Zhaitan just felt buggy and anticlimactic. A flashy cutscene with good camera angles of an awesomely designed boss and cool airships duking it out would be 100% better than what we have currently, plus it would feel more epic.

That’s my 2c.

Charr are also the least popular race (for some reason I can’t fathom).

The vast majority of players are Human, followed by Norn.

Map Completion rewards should scale to your level

Today I realized it doesn’t when completing the map for Wayfarer got me some lv16 gear (I’m lv72).

Would be nice if completion reward items scaled to your level, rather than the zone’s.

There is a lot of Repetition

in Audio

Posted by: Pietoro.2014

Pietoro.2014

Vendors seem to do their little quips every time a player interacts with them. I’d much rather hear it only when I interact with them. I don’t need to hear the same lines over and over while I’m looking through the goods as other players come up to them.

Yeah, this is really annoying if you spend any time hanging out near the bank or trading post NPCs. They never shut up, and frankly I don’t want to hear them greet every other person who happens to click them.

The dialogue... oh lord, the dialogue...

The best voice actor in the game (so far that I’ve heard) is whoever did Tybalt Leftpaw. Seriously, I loved him! Not just because of his dialogue but because the actor really sold the character.

This game needs more apples.

We need a Tybalt mini, too.

SPOILERS

If you choose to ally with the skritt after you save Demmi, then choose to steal the explosives from the centaurs, Tybalt talks a lot more about it and drops a lot of hints about him and his accident.

Ah, I was wondering about that. He drops hints about an explosion or something but I didn’t choose the Centaur option in that set of chapters. =/

I like the unisex styles of the Asura and Charr, personally. Though offering fancier townclothes or armor skins wouldn’t hurt, either.

Asura Hair: Natural or Not?

in Asura

Posted by: Pietoro.2014

Pietoro.2014

My pet theory about Asura hair is that after living so long above-ground they’ve developed a racial fad for wigs. It would explain a lot (why they look kinda odd with hair, and why GW1 Asura didn’t really have any). I mean, GW1 Asura had a little bit, but some of the modern hairstyles are suspiciously flowy/fluffy.

Anyway, there’s my pet theory.

His entire name (and reason for joining the Whispers) is because he lost his hand… why is this not mentioned until the last time you see him (and seemingly under the presumption that you already know)?

Seems like an odd missing bit of important information about him that should be told to us much earlier. Otherwise it’s impossible to tell his arm is mechanical until he outright mentions it then.

Anyone else not realize this fact about him? Or is it just that I missed some text somewhere that mentions it?

The flamethrower targeting issue is a real pain. I was having this problem in terrain that wasn’t very uneven (fighting spiders in Gendarran near one of the fields) and on drakes in Hirathi Hinterlands.

The flame cone hit area needs to be expanded upwards more, for sure. I took some screens during one of the fights I was having obvious issues with (the drake was at point-blank range the entire time, but the flame spray was just blowing straight into the ground and missing it):

If you have your UI set to ‘Small’ then the Trading Post font gets nearly unreadable. Set UI to Normal until they can get the scaling worked out, I guess.
