So just like every other game for the last few years, GW2 will slate the pallet of the majority for a few months then go on the dust pile with the rest of the disposable games. Now nothing wrong with that, but considering how many people not that long ago were delerious with the hope that THIS TIME everything will be different, it feels a titch pathetic.

Ya it is one of the best games to come out since Vanilla WoW . I am taking my time doing a lot of good crafting, meeting folks in my guild, and checking out everything I can.

My son and his wife are playing, they both made guardians. My youngest sone is playing an Elementalist and he is very good at it, in fact he is pretty good at all genres of games. My daughter, who lives down in Phoenix is playing with her friend and she is a Ranger. I don't get to chat with her much because of her work schedule. I'm fairly old and I'm trying to get my "girlfriend" (we can call them that when we are old) into the game but she has problems with trigger finger and carpal tunnel but she loves the engineer because of the guns.

I'm trying to meet the hundres of thousands of others who are playing the game and loving it. 

See you in game! I can't wait to meet you too!

Sir.........You call them your............"Ladyfriend" when you are old. 

That is...unless you are still a kid. Old as I get, I'll never grow up anyway.

Yeah, i guess i should have clarified, im not saying Rift was better, im also not saying the system is bad.  It works just fine.  All i was trying to say is that it wasnt this ultra innovative game paradigm shifting ultra awesome thing like the developers AND the fanboys tried to make it out to be.

that must all be in your head..  either way its a huge step imo over traditional static hub questing that is the exact same every single time you go through it... play the same zone in Tera 3 times bet it will pretty much be the exact same every time you play through it. I have played through numerous starting zones in gw2 and not a single time was the experience the exact same... that is its biggest impact imho.. i will agree the early zones could use a little less repetition but overall still can't think of a MMO with a 1-15 zone i enjoyed more..

Where's your thread on DEs? Think that would summarize it prelaunch. Too bad its lost in the sea of helpful threads. While problems bubble up to the surface constantly. *sigh*

you are welcome to resurface that one:)... to many pages to go back and search for me though lol..

I'm sorry to report this.. but your thread has drowned and died... *sniff* I'm sorry. I did the best I could.

And that's great, glad you (all of you GW2 players) are having a blast. Thing is though this is still very much the honeymoon period. Let's have this same chat in six months and see how it goes then.

so if a have a BLAST for six months then stop playing it wasn't worth it? i really don't understand this attitude.. i don't need to live in a game for years for it to be great.

Crafting:

Besides the high level issue of the economy.  The crafting system is terribad.  Its an EPIC money sink.  Just getting from 50 to 75 skill will cost you minimum 50s (which at level 15 or 16 is a metric crapton of money) OR 8-10 hours of mat farming.  The idea that you could even keep yourself in decent gear, much less your guild or buddies, is laughable.  Not happening.  The sad part is you discover that you can just buy all the crap you wanted to make from the AH for 1copper over vendor because of all the others thousands of schmucks who thought they would pick up crafting.

*snip*

that's not true at all if you are utilizing the discovery tab.. i even reached well over a 100 without spending anymore than maybe 10-20s max.. i'd take a look at some crafting guides and learn how to maximize XP through discovery

Honestly if your not using discovery to level up you profession, then you are going to be wasting a crap ton of mats and supplies. That is by far the easiest way and the most productive way to level it up. Basically:

1. Get as many levels as possible from just making bars or whatever, don't craft anything else.

2. Craft insignias/gems or whatever and use it on as many possibilities as you can.

3. Second you get 25 levels above the crafted item skill wise don't waste mats on it.

4. Prosper.

400 in 2 professions, most I bought was to go from 375-400. About it.

Thanks for the headsup, appreciate that.

 

On a side note, and this isnt directed at you eggy, but i find it slightly amusing that people are ignoring every other part of my post but focusing on the one thing i was slightly wrong about.  And i do stress slightly.

Dark red :) 

Me and 2 buddies are able to. My buddy is a tailor, other one is a weaponsmith. Tailor is 200+, weaponsmith is 250+. I'm 300 on my cook, and 110 on my jeweler. 

If you're making gear for friends guildies they need to be supplying you with either mats or money for mats.

But people are crafting and selling for cheap. Can find some goood deals right now. But mats are ridiculous priced. I wouldn't even try it.

I agree.

I had a blast with TSW but I'm not currently playing it. Does that mean the game is bad? Not by my standards. I got what I wanted out of it, enjoyed myself, and plan on returning to it after several updates for a bit again.

Although I think he's more referring to people's attitude towards the game overall.

First off did you miss the part of my first post where I said I'm comparing what the game actually is vs what some of the more hysterical fans promised (unfairly to A-net) it was going to be? IE the HYPE. Which is really what this whole thread is about, how the game stacks up vs the hype. That's why I have this attitude. Its not a critique against GW2, but against the behavior of certain members of its community with a very skewed view of what GW2 would be.

And second if the game really is the best MMO since Vanilla Wow, the opinion of the poster I quoted (an opinion I do not agree with) then it will still be going strong for these players six months in. So we'll wait and see.

As to how long a game lasts you vs value, that is very much up to the outlook of each individual. Buying an mmo that lasts me a month or two isn't worth it to ME. So I do need to live in a MMORPG game for longer than a couple of months for ME to dub it GREAT. That help clairfy things for you?

yes 2 weeks old, and i already own full exotics, 400/400 crafting, completed personal story, i beat Zaitan, 89% world exploration which is getting repetitive because you do the same DE again and again for the Karma needs

i dont know which fault is this, mine for playing too fast, or the game for being too little in content and too easy on players

yes i know that Anet said this is for Casual, but if you can finish a game content (except for WvWvW and sPvP that will never end )

then i think it's a bit too easy and fail to meet the expectations from the "more than casual player" which Anet should have really thought about it

hell, take a look at Vanguard, it took me 1 year just to explored like 1/2 the world

It's unbelievably better than I expected. 

I thought GW1 was an innovative and well made game, but I didn't like it.  I was very suspicious of all the GW2 hype and hysteria.  I didn't even like the screenshots and vids.  I'm not even all that keen on fantasy MMOs.

But after a couple of hours into the game I knew this was something special.  Now 32 (with alts at various levels below that), and just can't get enough of the damn thing.  This game is like a breath of fresh air in a stale room - at last, a modern MMO that feels like a virtual world again!  At last, an MMO that doesn't punish people spontaneously helping each other out in the wild - I mean, that alone is HUGE.  But the game is full of innovations like that, and to top it all it has the most astounding attention to detail in any game I've seen ever, I think.

And PvP is a heck of a lot of fun.

Well it's a pretty safe assumption that any game will not last very long. What you need to do is measure how much game play you are getting for your dollar. I'm at about 150 hours on my Guardian, and have only covered about 34% of the map, and this is my first character. I beleive that works out to about .40 cents an hour and the more I play the less that will become of course. 

I'm an old man and playing by the minute and this game is worth every penny. I haven't read your post history but it seems like you are slighly upset towards the title. If you are much of an mmorpg enthusiast it is definatly worth stepping back and reevaluating the game and just buing it and playing. /whispers...It will be our little secret.

Well then you missed a whole hell of a lot of my post history as I've stated on numerous occasions that I HAVE been playing the game. And that my real gripe about GW2 is not the game which I think is OK, not great, but OK, but the portion of the fanbase that has been so rabidly hateful and delsuional about just what kind of game GW2 actually is.

As to playing the game, several of the people I work with and I rent a very large house in a very nice neighborhood none of us could afford on our own. Since about half of us are gamers that means I usually have ample opportunity to try out one of the hot new games one of them has purchased. One of my house mates bought GW2 expressly for the WvW and has abandoned his account due to being upset about the queue times. So that's left me free reign to do what I like in GW2 without paying a cent. Nice work if you can get it huh. So far got a warror to 29th, a guardian to 15th and a ranger to around 12th I think (I personaly don't care of any of the pure casting classes at all). Since I have the opportunity I'm going to try to get at least a couple of characters to at least 30th on the off chance I've missed something amazing about the game. To be honest though, so far I don't think I have.

Thanks though for that dump truck full of egotistical condescension, insinuating that anyone who dislikes the game must not have actually played it. Gee its not like I haven't heard that old tune before.

Its your signature. People read that and go "Humpf, thats not how the game will be... another guild wars hater eh?" You at least put a spin on enjoying and still can critique over pure and udder bliss that most go into these posts with. Thus they take your posts with a spoonful of pepper and quickly spit it out.

Well its not for nothing that on old friend once compaired my sense of humor to a fart in a crowded lift. In certain instances amusing but usually just upsetting. But as the great philosophyser Popeye the Sailor once said, "I yam what I yam".

Well Tardcore aside, I'm paranoid about people talking about GW2 without having played it, because a few people have actually been CAUGHT doing just that.  For serious.  Still, you're innocent until proven guilty.

Or is that backwards on forums?  I might have missed a memo.

It is what I expected..

its a solid MMO,but nothing over the top or blowing me away.

Sorry you feel that way. I meant you no ill feelings. Good luck to you, I know your history now without even looking at it.

Well if that wasn't your intent then you have my most humble apologies. Without facial expressions and mannerisims it is sometimes hard to judge a persons intent. But since you closed both of your posts to me with essentially "Aw come on, try it you'll like it", maybe you can understand why I would jump to the (in this case wrong) conclusion that you were insinuating my opinions were based on zero actual game experiance.

But since you closed both of your posts to me with essentially "Aw come on, try it you'll like it", maybe you can understand why I would jump to the (in this case wrong) conclusion that you were insinuating my opinions were based on zero actual game experiance.

Meh, no big deal at all. You seemed cordial and I thought we were chatting. Nothing against you, but it seems this entire forum is always ready to bend each other over a kitchen table. 

I'm moving on and going back to playing. o.O

Thanks though for that dump truck full of egotistical condescension, insinuating that anyone who dislikes the game must not have actually played it. Gee its not like I haven't heard that old tune before.

*breaks bottle on edge of bar*

Oh YEAH!? Well try saying that again!!!

No worries. Again without the facial expressions and mannerisms (and admittedly WITH a few pints on my part) it is sometimes far too easy to take playfulness as spiteful sracasm.

What I hate about MMOs, and GW 2 is guilty as well, is that they do not let me customize my character how I want it. 

I can't make him ugly, I can't make him fat, I can't make him scarred, I can't make him different. Instead, I have the developer deciding how I must look, with little variety, which is... shitty.

Also, GW 2 has very little armor and clothes variety, which is sad.

I also can't understand why I can't find a hood. I'm a ranger and I want to wear to hood. I'm flucking cliched like that. Why on earth is it so difficult to find one? Are hoods treasured possessions in Tyria, gaurded by Kralkatorrik himself? 

Tell me how I can find a hood and I will play this game forever! 

As for the dehype, give it time, it's still early yet. But these first weeks have been undoubtely... epic.
