Here are my reasons for playing less, granted it is personal preference if you agree with my viewpoints or not. I have stopped playing as much as i would normally.

1, After reaching FoM 16 it hit me just how much of a joke the repetition is, and the changes so far don’t seem to be exciting enough per level increase.

2, Complete RNG, makes this whole system of levels based purely on mindless force, I don’t want to rerun on repeat the same dungeons over and over in order to be on par with gear. You want me to sit there in LA for 1 hour LFG’ing for the right level? No thanks, a response people give to this is “Why don’t you run with your guild” Well i would if my guild members were at the same level and online at exactly the same time, this is just not the case for people that don’t base their lives around gw2.

3, I don’t really want to do PvE or feel like I’m falling behind just because i can’t run the same things over and over again. Or why not make the new gear acquirable via WvW somehow.

I like the pre lost shores gw2, can’t stand the new you, I’m sorry.

Thanks for the "new build" at 10pm ET

There is no excuse for this, you can’t in any way blame the player for what happened. It was cut short mid event, and it’s done and dusted. The people who were shafted were in an active event, if it was active it should have been allowed to finish, what should have happened was to deny people from joining that event at some point and just let the last batch of players finish up, and then close it down.

You had people mid event just pushed away and slapped in the face for the time they spent working the area, with no ending, no closure, no rewards. I did the opening event, the investigations and read as much lore as i could, to get kicked so close to the finishing line. So cut about it. It’s not even about the rewards, i would have just liked to see the ending.
