It’s not an expansion, it’s just more Living World. Anyone who expects differently is being deluded. There is absolutely nothing about the trailer that even remotely indicates anything more than Season 3
What was that? I can’t hear you over the EXPANSION ANNOUNCEMENT YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

People talk like if it is hard to lvl up now lol. If you pvp you have stacks of tome of knowledge on your bank. If you run dungeons you can just swap character at the end. If you play wvw you can get lots of lvl in EoTM…
It’s not the levelling, it’s having to regrind all your gear. I have a lot of alts, having to regrind all my gear would be a nightmare. If I wanted geargrind I would be playing WoW.

NO!!!
Having to regrind the gear for ALL my alts would be an absolute nightmare..
Levels don’t mean a thing in this game anyway, why would you want more of them?

can’t even imagine how it will hurt pvp or wvw if they can’t balance even current skills
Anet can make them PvE only. In GW1 pve and pvp skills were completely seperate, which is why the balance in GW1 was a lot better. Granted it was not perfect either, but still better.

This is one of the reasons I would like Anet to give races some more racial skills and make them on par with other skills.
It could give each race another race specific build.
Asura have the option to make a golemancer build.
Humans could have a build that focuses on prayers, some defensive some offensive.
Charr could have a build that focuses on utilizing your warband.
Norn could have a build that focuses on calling spirits to their aid.
Sylvari have the option to make a.. plant thingy build whatever.
Will probably never happen, but hey one can dream.

I play for fun, to relax. It is my experience that this is pretty much impossible in a pvp environment. PvP environments are too competitive for that. And I like working together with people, not against them.
I’m not saying PvP is bad per se, it just isn’t for me.

However since ANet hasn’t specified styles for Asura and since Oola shows the styles can be elaborate, I would say just about anything goes.
Uh, yeah those are senegalese twists they’re a protective hairstyle for women with natural hair…
So you consider that a natural hairstyle? mkay
I don’t think you understand what I mean when I say “natural hair”. We have plenty of relaxed, straight hairstyles in game, typically this is attributed as “white people hair”. Black women who want to achieve this look use hair relaxers to make their hair straight like that. This typically damages their hair. However, when she wears her hair naturally (i.e. no relaxers) it takes on a soft, curly, kinky texture. The appearance and style changes depending on her hair care regimen. This is what I mean by natural hair.
So this ‘natural’ hairstyle is achieved by exposing it to artificially created chemicals, ok.
Also I’d like to point out there is a difference between “Natural hair” and “Natural hairstyle” as you seem to use them as if they mean the same thing.
Natural hair simply means the hair is real hair.
Natural hairstyle implies the hairstyle hasn’t been significantly altered (artificially) by accessoires, knots and chemicals. Or at the very least creates the illusion it wasn’t altered.
Did you at all read what I wrote, dude?! I literally said natural hair is achieved when NO artificial chemicals are used to care for the hair. When I use the term “natural hairstyle” I am referring to hairstyles that women who wear their hair naturally can achieve.

Ah so the hairstyles you showed do not use relaxers. My bad then.

If you simply meant real hair then I stand corrected.

Anet still can’t handle the classes they have and you guys want more? Good lord…
No game with multiple classes are ever balanced.
That’s like saying, " let’s wait until Elephants become green colored and can fly before adding them to our zoo"
Well you will be waiting forever because it’s not happening.
Developers can’t make the game balanced because they would have to get rid of the classes uniqueness which would destroy the game’s replay value.
Adding new classes is better. Developers can be dynamic with balance and adjust as time goes on, rather than seeking 100% balance which is impossible..
Um, since when can a zoo not handle elephants? Your analogy only makes sense if the zoo already has trouble housing and feeding the animals it has and chooses to get more; a choice that is very stupid indeed.
WOOOOOOSH

Exactly, even GW1 is still not fully balanced, and it never will be.

Wow I’m impressed by the understanding reactions in this thread. Nice to see.
I have seen threads like this before and most people usually responded with reactions like “grr its ur own fault, it says unique u blind?”
Dear A-net: Please nerf rock. Paper is fine
~Sincerely, Scissors
I would love to see these threads in interview that even hints at
- GvG
- Guild Halls
- Personal Housing
- New race
- Personal story rework
- WvW rework
- Dota SPvP
- New skills including elite skills. (with shorter cooldown)
- New class (This one is maybe not very likely but there’s a possibility)
I think by looking at the forums, he means the CDI’s. Which would account for some of the things on that list, but not all.

Rha, I proposed some hairstyles, and I still work … But I do not know if the developers involved Asura like it, or do not want to deal with the Asuras.

Below is my charr in a dress. I really don’t understand why people want more of this. Charr anatomy just isn’t made for human female clothes, and the same applies to asura.
Actually it works for asura because their body has a more humanoid shape.
It doesn’t work for charr because they are hunchbacks. And look more like animals.
That dress you showed looks super cute on asura females

ICultural sensitivity is a good thing, but when crafting fictional settings that don’t even imply that they’re portraying the real world, it’s a very minor concern…
That’s what I thought.

The people who don’t respond, the people kittenpond with refusing to listen/change what they are doing, the people who acknowledge what they are doing and make it clear they are only doing it for the purpose of kittening others off. How’s that for a starter?
A smart troll never tells he is trolling. He lets you think he is being completely serious or genuinely kittened.

Showing a lack of sensitivity to how other people perceive their own cultures is racism.
I always thought racism was prejudice and/or discrimination based on social perceptions of biological differences between different peoples. It might be insensitive but it still doesn’t seem like racism to me.
I will take your word for it though.
