…perhaps a break from the OCD is all they need and then they will see each update as content to enjoy rather than achievements to scramble to complete.
The problem is not necessarily the OCD, it’s that unless you complete the dungeon and complete the achievements, you don’t get to enjoy all of the content and items. Plus the fact that a lot of the content they keep adding is only there to get the achievements.
I have to say that, although I have loved the regular new content, having a 2 week turnaround is ridiculous. I don’t have much time to play during the week and can only really play in the evenings on the weekend, leaving me very little opportunity to experience the new content… esp the aetherblade retreat which I could only attempt (and fail) twice. I enjoyed playing it, despite failing it and would have really liked more time to take a crack at it.
I’m actually pretty kitten ed off that it has already disappeared. As a long time player and huge fan of Guild Wars, this has made me very annoyed.
Hi, I’m not if you know this, but the percentage shown on the download is not the percentage of the data that you’ve downloaded, it’s the percentage of the number of files. So if you’ve downloaded 100MB of 22000 files and it’s only 1%, that does not mean that the download is going to be 10GB. It means you’ve downloaded ~220 files.
ANet also tend to get you to download the largest files first, so you’ll notice that the % rapidly increases after a while.
The update that was pushed last night was about 5000 files and only ~1100MB in total. I had downloaded about 400MB and was only on 3%, but the % increased quickly after that.
Hope that helps.
