Just a hint for you... if you try to convince us the game is bad, for whatever reason, you are wasting your time. And about that video, I have never cared about the opinion of some nerd powergamer and I still don't care about it.

Then add some nonsense and sweet little lies like "you can win with only auto attacking" (which in reality will result in your death of course, and also pathetic participation), and you have the complete picture of the agenda of the OP.

What's funny about the guy making the video, by the way, is that there's another video of him getting utterly owned... by a GW2 boss =P

But yeah, GW2 PvE is easy... ;-)

Funniest part about that, is that's not even one of the harder explorables.

I love the catch 22 going on in regards to difficulty, though. People complaing about the PvE being too easy, then get to dungeons and complain that it's too hard.

Those seem to suffer from vanilla wow hunter raiding syndrome.  Where you turn on auto attack and afk.

Duh, he is just talking about the open world and compare Wows instanced dungeon and raid bosses against GW2s open world bosses.

If he would have compared Wows open world bosses with GW2s things would be different, or if he bothered to do an explorable dungeon instead and compared that.

 

WoWs open world bosses didn't really allow for afk auto attacking like gw2 does. 

 

Also he did explorable modes... gimmicks seemed easily mastered and there was no true challenge.

Gimmicks? They are alot harder than any content in WOW. By faaaaar

I am not sure of how good you know a person when you see him/her but what you are saying right there is totally wrong. This guy is a cool dude and he isnt telling lies, you can see it just by looking at him. He even made genuine videos which for me proofs alot. Not only that, he isnt a kid either, he knows what he does and says.

So telling us here that he is a exploiter is just pure BS when HE himself admited exploiting once in his life and it was in wow with a whole 25 man group. I think he deserves much respect.

I actually start to believe that some people here are under 15.. but yeah its not your fault thats how it is :) now go and have some fun gaming.

A little background on kripparian, he was in one of the top WoW PvE progression guilds back in the day... he was the first to kill inferno diablo on hardcore in d3, and he is a powergamer + min/maxer. 

Right..   so by all accounts he sounds like one of the least qualified people to comment on the PvE for the vast majority of us who don't powerlevel through games.  He has a completely different approach to gaming.

Im guessing, since you seem to be on a crudade against GW2, that his comments were mostly negative...

If you, I quote, "die in one shot to a random unavoidable attack", then you did something wrong. No attack is "unavoidable", and all have warnings/signs before they happen.

Actually,

The Fire boss in metrica province actually does oneshot you without a sign. Check it out it's quiet funny seeing people drop.

So you're saying he didn't infact exploit the cheese pepper exploit and then air it live on his stream for thousands more to see it rather than just report it?

Then, upon being banned for 3 days for airing the exploit intentionally rather than report it, you're saying he didn't then instruct his fans to spam bomb Anet which resulted in his permanent ban?

He also then didn't make an account on Reddit named "Anetisshit" or something to that effect and proceed to bitterly troll the subreddit?

He also didn't then issue a chargeback on his legitimately banned account before purchasing a new account?

Maybe you should actually look into the guys history before condemning someone else for speaking the truth. The way Krippe has acted this past week has been downright deplorable.

I wouldnt say they are hard but underwhelming, they are boring compared to most events, after having played through a few of the higher level DEs I was hoping dungeons would be more interesting, I mean having to look for what the boss is doing, and avoiding that one Axe that is going to one shot you in the actual world while doing a DE is pretty amazing, its the kind of mechanic that really lends itself to moving away from the so called trinity.

But my god dungeons are pretty bad, they are basically just a zerg fest of mobs wacking at people in an almost random fashion, I am pretty lucky I suppose being a ranger I have noticed some dungeons are tweaked to attack the ranged no matter what while in others mobs never go for the ranged player, so I get to spam skills at the back while people get wacked in the front, I am hoping other dungeons are more interesting than the ones up to level 78 cause they have been dreadful.

Also whats up with a non usable looking for group option ( it does exist in your friends window thingy ) and what is up to putting a lvl 78 instance in a level 70 area what are people supposed to do go around every city and spam LFM because no one is looking for group to a lvl 78 instance in a level 70 area that is remotely within the correct level range, not only that but teleports cost a fortune. They need to fix dungeons and group finding.

But hey I dont particularly mind I really just want to complete the dungeons but it has gone to the point where I have to start begging my friends to actually group up for them cause they all seem to hate the dungeon design with a passion they just dont want to do them anymore, I dont blame them, they are pretty lacking at this point, DEs are much more interesting.

He exposed the fact GW2 development is too cheap to be able to "roll back" acquisitions.

He didn't change the code and he didn't bot. He used what was sold to him in a box, worked it to its fullest potential, and got punished because of GW2's incapacity to deal with such contingency.

I recommend to anyone who asks, "Do not buy GW2 because they will ban your account, effectively stealing your money, because of their own mistakes and short-sightedness" and I feel very comfortable doing so.

I knew in beta this game was a steaming pile; a game better for 10 year olds. I'm so glad I didn't buy this garbage.

I've seen people exploit in bad games, and in good games... the ability to exploit doesn't make a bad game. But be my guest, and continue your little insignificant anti-GW2 crusade ;-)

I think he's pretty much dead-on.

I really wanted to like the game but I think the PvE is pretty bland and pretty much lost my interest... actually it never really grabbed my interest. I'm sure the game gets much better once you get into PvP but since that's not really my thing... I just don't think this is really something I'll invest a lot of time in at the moment. But since there's no subscription fees, I'm not really too broken up about it.

I've seen people exploit.. even "accidentally exploit"... in halfway-good games and had their rewards removed, netting wasted time.. Feel free to keep trying to defend this crap excuse of a game development.

Oh I don't really need to defend anything... the ratings on the various review sites do that for me.

I just don't agree with any justification of exploiting, which you did in your previous posts. Not to mention you post misinformation, since the offenders got their gains removed.

If you're going to bash a game, try to rely on facts, and don't just make up stuff.

I told you he is not that kind of a person, what more do you want to know?

No comment.

And people who accidentally used the 21 karma did not get banned or suspended. If people bought 50 or even hundreds, they knew it was an exploit.

Hey, maybe it's because all the other games merely removed the exploited items that people jump onto exploits the first chance they get. I mean what have you got to lose? If the company didn't catch on, you just keep the rewards, and if they did, hey nothing lost.

Yeah, Wow would never ban anyone for that... Wait, they do it all time and as do any other MMO devs. GW1 didnt as long as Strain was in charge but he wouldnt have released the game until 2 months later.

Exploiters will be banned in any MMO except a few so small that losing a single sub is really bad, like Mortal online.

They dont, if it is really clear that someone exploited something like this the player will be banned in any MMO.

Heck, in TOR they banned people for risking higher level zones to get some better rewards. In this case it was clearly cheating, some people bought over a thousand items.

Noone got banned for getting a single one.

You can't cite one example of any other mmo banning people because of "wrong item cost on merchant".
