I just can't care about story anymore. I hate that they're dumping the majority of their effort into story instead of content like dungeons, fractals and pvp.
>>
>>386471071
Dungeons have been dead since before the game launched. The moment they started working on the Fractals patch is when Dungeons got replaced. Get over them.
Pvp is trash and you should feel bad for caring about it.
They're also releasing fractals with non-expansion patches.We just got three of them over the last year that exact way. They'll continue adding them in living world season 4, after the expansion hits.

The main complaint with gliding and mounts in wvw is "it adds too much more clutter to the screen and lags the game." Wvw servers are incredibly weak and lag at the littlest things, so I can see where they are coming from, but only with this complaint. Not wanting them because they are pve content in muh serious pvp game mode is childish and stupid.

Eh, kinda. You can't do Fractals until 80. Those are basically beefed up dungeons that you need a brain to complete. For the most part all the actually competent dungeon runners are doing Fractals, not the base dungeons.

No, but people follow the line of thought of "if the content comes out after an expansion hits, it automatically counts towards it, even if it wasn't packaged in with it from the start."
All the content post HoT up until the last patch before September 22nd will be counted as "HoT content."

Raids are locked behind HoT and were one of the major features of HoT when announced. Raids were accessible a bit after the release to let people get familiar with the expansion first. Or so they said...
>>
>>386481981
I don't know what destiny is like but dungeons have always been kind of a shit show at level. the only other thing you're doing pre-80 is putzing around in tyria zones. if you enjoy exploring vanilla zones it's fine but at 80 you can go to the most interesting ones, do fractals (new dungeons), raids, collections and whatever else.
>>
Why the rewards for everything are so shit.
Anything you get is just vendor garbage, during the time i played vanilla wuth 5 lvl 80 character i had about 5 exotic drops and nothing better.

not from just doing random open world shit. the main rewards in the game are cosmetic and that's usually behind some specific collection/currency purchase.

decent equipment rewards are tied to fractals and raids.

>>386483057
Fractals and raids are where anything worthwhile drops. Everywhere else is just salvage fodder to put on the AH.

>""""decent"""" equipment
Exotics will carry you through everything. Wasting time and resources on a 5% stat increase for ascended and legendary is pointless. The skins are very hit and miss, and the only actual benefit they give is to hardcore fractal players that need agony resistance, or to freely swap stats (legendary only) for those that don't want to waste inventory space on multiple armor sets.
>>
>>386483391
Don't take bitchy mentors seriously. Anyone worth their salt would have a proper commander's tag anyway. But that doesn't necessarily mean all commanders are good either.
>>
>>386483225
Raids are HoT exclusive. The latest zones that came with HoT are also the best. You still have fractals, explorable dungeons and all the content associated with Tyria though.
>>
>>386483724
Good luck getting a fractal team without especs though. Higher tier pugs are pretty autistic when it comes to meta builds.

>amount of announced content is really weak
also we dont have to wait like a 10 months for PoF (contrary to HoT) and the LW4 is expected to start after 2-3 months, with HoT being stale for more than 6 months after release (first LW3 episode realeased like 9 months after HoT introduction, preceded by some average-sized patch afair). there is going to be quantity

Yeah, mesmer mentors will usually camp out at the jump puzzles if it's a daily to help people. A few days ago it was that one near Morgan's Spiral and they had another mentor over in the Dark Reverie helping people, ressing them, and killing mobs down below. Those ones are nice. Kind of makes me wish I wasn't so retarded when it came to playing mesmer so I could do something like that, too.

My problem with the PvP in this game is there seems to be no way to come back from a loss. As we speak I'm in a pvp match right now, it was obvious within the first minute that we cant win, so I just have my character run around to capture points with the auto run key and tab out and browse the internet while I wait to lose. I only need about 3 more matches for the last Tome of Knowledge so this works for me either way.
>>
>>386486706
well, maybe i should add that i liked the format and the not the story that much. LW3 is ok, i guess, but im already tired with the new, permanent maps every realeased every 2-3 months, that i will play for 3-4 days and then forget about them. LW1 content had time gates, so you played fuckton of it and tried no to miss anything. i prefer the LW to change the current world and leave expanding to actual expansion.

Anet should only ensure that story is preserved and properly presented to newcomers who want to know about already established lore and events of content that is already gone.

Should I buy hot now and wait for the pof release to get it? I have odd work hours so my only real option is pugging everything.

>>
>>386481906

It seems unfair to oversimplify the amount of new maps to "4 new maps vs 5 new maps."

We don't know how large the new maps are, or how much content is in each one and how interesting they are. For example one map in HoT is easily worth two maps in the base game.
>>
>>386487940
Have you tried leveling with greatsword? It's a fun playstyle and you do a shitton of damage. Dual swords is also damage-heavy, but squishier.
>>
>>386487940
Well it doesn't seem like there'll be a difference now, it costs the same whether you buy HoT with PoF or either on its own.
I think you might be better off getting PoF when it releases so you can jump into the new content and HoT when you feel like you want it.
>>
>>386488108
I'm using greatsword + sword/sword since I like the sword wielding mage aesthetic and I think the skills are good.

To be fair, PoF is $30 compared to HoT's $50.
>>
>>386487940
Honestly I would just wait until this coming weekend's PoF beta testing, which is free to all players, before buying anything. If you like the content we are allowed to play there, you should just bite the bullet and buy HoT and PoF together while they are still offered as a "bundle discount."

Things get better once you get past 40 or so.

That was one year ago, has the game improved at all since then?
>>
>>386489178
Bundle discount?
Isn't HoT 20$ either way?
>>
>>386489547
This is true. Mesmer is probably the only class where it feels unfinished until you've fleshed out an entire build line with complimentary skills. Then it turns fucking beast since you've picked up enough knowhow to actually get shit done and you feel comfortable attempting to solo damn near anything. Chrono still weirds me out, though.
>>
>>386489581
I assume the price is $30 for each expansion's basic version, since the bundle for both of those together is $50 and is being toted as money-saving. I can't actually view the GW2 site's store for some reason, so I can't confirm, and I already have HoT, so I can't see it in the in-game store.
>>
>>386489850
HoT was already lowered to 20$ some months ago so there's no discount for buying both.
>>
>>386489547
I hope it does, I'm on lvl 33 atm.

Humans are the most cucked race in gw2.

Official site says $30.

Oh.
Right.
I'm retarded, never mind me.
>>
>>386490206
Your options start opening up at around the 40 mark. Until then, you just don't have enough skills unlocked to do anything fun. This is true for most professions.
>>
I've not played in 2 years, not bought either expansion, is it worth to buy both or just one?
>>
>>386492415
That depends if you like playing the game. There's a ton of content, so you'll definitely get your value out of it.
>>
What's the best server to play?
>>
>>386492794
I do enjoy it, although after being away for so long the way you obtain skills has changed so I am more lost on what to go for.. Looking for builds via google gets me builds for 2014 etc. hm

Between guardian and necro, which one is better for pve stuff? I like necro skills more but guardian aesthetic is more pleasing.
>>
GW went to shit in the HoT prepatches.
Nothing can save it now.
Their Chinese overlords ruined the economy to drive gem sales.

>>386489562
Same shit happened to me, but I kept playing.
Got to the end of the Mordremoth fight and one of the npcs bugged and wouldn't move, so I had to endlessly dodge Mord's attacks until I just relogged and redid the fight.
>>
>>386494285
Necro melts everything if they go minion, but shit for grouping since most of them are retarded. Go guardian.

Go back to your containment thread on /vg/
Oh wait, GW2 played are so autistic they use spambots to ruin every thread that talks about GW2 on /vg/ including threads that aren't even it's general.
>>
>>386471071
it's crazy because the game really shines in some areas, the world design is probably the best I've seen in any MMO, exploration and detail was great, jumping puzzles were fun, the feel of combat was good even if they fucked up by locking skills to weapons ans generally killing the best aspect of gw1 (skill variety and build experimentation), wvw had a good concept and could've been great (they ruined it), pvp had the potential to be great (they ruined it through stagnation and then actively made it worse through updates), diverse aesthetics between the races and zones were great.

But the writing, story, 'living story' went from bad to terrible at release, then somehow went from terrible to unbearable post release, yet they neglect all the other aspects of the game that could've been improved from release to focus on nothing but the cash shop and the shitshow of a story writing. Truly doubling down on their own faggotry idea of what the game should be and silencing the community outrage, leaving only the drones behind.

The devs ruined gw2, I've never witnessed a more incompetent dev team in my lifetime of gaming.

How do you kill a game with a story?

I don't mind the story because at the pace it's moving now, we're getting more content delivered. compare that to LS1 or 2 that dragged on and on without delivering anything but one or two maps and timed content in 3 years.
Just imagine the story as a link between the different pieces of content we're getting, that's the whole point of it.

we do have some idea of how large the maps are due to the leaks, and they're pretty fucking huge. pic releated.

no clue about event density, though.

Kralk is next on the dragon shit list, and skipping right down to cantha would have be a little illogical.
>>
>>386499273
yes, but why the Desolation and not Kourna and Istan
>>
>>386499409
path of the maps seem to be taking us straight south. Pretty sure we're following balthazar's warpath, so I would assume he's just making a beeline for kralk. Won't really know until september, unless they let some shit slip this weekend.

>>386498462
Are these images of the new maps just shopped onto the GW2 map or does it really look this retarded?

That link might be broken for some people, the OP seemed to move to >>>/vg/185303836 but I get what you're saying anyway. Maybe I'll repost the guide pastebin into these threads, it's not a bad compilation.

>>386500321
the former, but it probably will look that retarded since the original map already looks that retarded
