I CANT STOP PLAYING THIS DOGSHIT
I can. I am waiting until they make Dogshit 3
>>736011154Is it dogshit if you like it?
>>736011154i hate the community and early dungeon design>don't have locked doors to stop retards from skipping the entire dungeon>wow big surprise everyone just runs to the end>dozens of dungeons are like this and people will literally do as little as possible because they are daily snorting retards or something idk why
>>736011154I find it annoying how the game and community talk so much about how the game has "horizontal progression" and imply you can tackle the game in any order you want, but actually the story is entirely linear. You unlock every expansion at once and can technically play whichever one seems interesting, but doing so will totally break the story and make no sense. Its dishonest and just ends up feeling kind of broken and lazy.
>>736014079Usually when they talk about that they're talking purely from the gameplay progression, where you can get to 80, buy some exotics for 5g, and go into any strike or raid wing and see success. I get where you're coming from though, I've been playing fairly casually for about half a year and mainly just do story and some raiding. I don't want to skip story or spend much time in WvW though, so I don't have access to things like Spear or the cross spec weapons. I'm in early EoD at the moment, but haven't really played much recently.
>>736011154Stopped it more than 10 years ago because it is not GW1.
>>736013413Just advertise the group as 'first time' or 'chill' or 'exploring' and you'll get oldfags slowly strolling along with you, watching cutscenes if you ask. I help noobs sometimes, even use a meme build to not powercreep as much.
>>736011154the one game after all these years i always go back to... i love you gw2
>>736014720What happened to that renaissance GW1 had a few months back?Did they keep the momentum?
>>736015268They are working on a bunch of new grinds, modes and challenges for forver-GW1 players to chase and doing a balance patch. So yeah, it's healthy.
>>736015268Yes but it's not enough to bring back oldschool HA and GvG. We need a new GW1.
>>736013413>>wow big surprise everyone just runs to the endthey do this in almost every content in this game, like the other anon said it's best to just make your own groups if you want a chill experience and avoid the poopsockers
>tfw managed to stop playing this dogshit
>>736015268I started a new character but then they introduced ironman mode so now I need to start a new new character.
>6 month to release 1 more map
can I marry Kas yet?
>>736017695Are you girl lesbian yet?
>>736017695Marjory...
Why? The combat is so incredibly bad
>>736017787Combat is good actually
>>736017837It really isn't. It's so floaty and the constant mashing of dodge is just annoying. You have to play it for hundreds of hours just to get used to the correct positioning for melee strikes.
>>736011154>base game is boring dogshit>first expansion is like slamming into a brick wall after the snoozefest that was the first 80 fucking levels.>writing takes a complete nosedive in heart of thorns with girl bosses and weak men everywhere>typical modern writingThe whole series is just boring trash. The only reason anyone played the first game was because it didn't cost a subscription, it drew all the poor kids like f2p gook games drew third worlders. GW1 was pretty much a daycare for no taste children with stingy/poor parents.
>>736018025>writing takes a complete nosedive in heart of thornslol, lmaoif you think this was a nose dive just look at EoD
>>736017994>You have to play it for hundreds of hours just to get used to the correct positioning for melee strikes.
>>736011154I played it for over 500 hours, still zero legendary and at some point I grew tired of doing the same shit over, over and over.I just don't understand why MMO devs always design MMOs like this.Instead of farming shit for gazillion hours, why not just make 80% some challenging bosses, puzzles, etc and 20% farming?
>>736019135I think the point of GW2 is that you don't have to interact with the grinding if you just want to do the challenging boss fights. Legendary gear is identical to Ascended stat-wise, and you very quickly build a set of Ascended gear when you start getting into raids and strikes just from the boss currency. It's the kind of MMO that you can play around 5 hours a week and make good progress on boss encounters, even if you haven't played in years.
>>736017663is it really 6 more months of waiting? why is it so long
I could, when they pubicly announced that my main class is a joke
>>7360195566 months since expansion release, less than 3 left right now. There is a chance that a longer dev time will help this time, since Janthir last 2 maps were dogshit low quality, probably worst in the game.Either they are doing minimum viable product, because they simply can or most of the devs work on something else leaving barebones low-tier devs to make expansions.It's not that they've completely giving up on the game, but definitely cutting corners and half as ambitious. Technical ability also noticeably declined.
>>736013413Aren't dungeons dead content anyway? They literally never added more after the first release. They focused more on the world events and new zones via expansions and living story, with bones thrown at the few people who do fractals (they've added like 4 fractals in GW2's entire lifetime).
Post Asuras, faggots.
>>736019694imagine maining anything in this game and expecting respect from anet balancingthey rotate which class gets clown shoes every patch. today it's you, next patch it's some other poor bastard who bought gemstore skins thinking they'd be viable for more than 3 weeks.just reroll like everyone else or embrace the suffering and tell yourself you're playing on "hard mode" for moral superiority.
>>736011154I tried playing this for a bit, I don't really see the appeal. The only fun parts were the big world boss events that showed up on the map, but there's not enough people in the starting areas to really do them. The endgame stuff was a bunch of gay jumping puzzles and minimal combat, and it was locked at 5 people so also boring shit.
>>736022159got 9 characters, but i strongly prefer one, and it happens to be the one anet cares about the least.
>>736022349which one?
>>736022802It's funnier to let people guess thief
>>736022043Asuras are too cool for this stinky thread
>>736023023You look familiar...
>>736022835based
>>736022835Thief always gets shafted like a good little cuck it is. In an MMO just play a ranger if you want to dex fag if there's an option to.
>>736025419ranger is THE cuck class in every mmo, and its always the meta cause we both know who the target demographic is
>>736025494Ranger used to be the most broken DPS class with AoE attacks what are you on about? That's probably a new trend.
>>736023153Unlikely. I'm but a humble everyday rat, there are many like me...
>>736025862exactly, thats cuckshit
>>736011302>:3Why would you want that?
>>736011154It's genuinely a good game but the artstyle has been completely ruined by glowfag in-game store assets like its SO bad
Stopped with PoF.Mounts are retarded.
>>736027408>Mounts are retarded.I agree but for mmos they are inevitable and gw2 has the best itteration of mounts.
>>736027468Didn't convince me 10 years ago, won't convince me now. Mount design ruined the game. I don't care how "cool" they are. I don't want to run through 50 fucking miles of nothing just because they added shiny dogs.
>>736027605lets be real, thats every mmo even without mounts. the vanilla zones has so much nothing in between POIs, just not as much as the PoF zones
>>736011154Man fuck this game, last year i used my summer vacation to play it for 4 weeks. I joined a german guild expecting german autism but all i got was basic bitch drama, based bois, simps, guild bunnies and pay piggies.
>>736027964Yes but the difference isn't even close.
>>736011154I've only came back in PoF because of mounts. They've significantly improved the game and design with them. And it's fun to go fast.
>>736027468they were until they added skyscales
