I angered the clerk in a clothing shop today. She asked me what size I was and I said actual, because I am not to scale. I like vending machines 'cause snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at a store, oftentimes, I will drop it... so that it achieves its maximum flavor potential. --Mitch Hedberg |

Originally posted by Yakamomoto Small steps friend, all about small steps :) I personally think GW2 is innovating in all the right areas for THEMEPARK mmo's. They took all the tedious from their MMO(minus Legendaries). They made it all about fun and the short haul. IE: A casual, pick up at the end of the work day and have some simple fun game. I think your mistake was expecting something deep from a themepark.
EDITED to add that i think the genre is finally moving forward. They have realised you cant try and cater to themepark and saondbox playstyles at the same time. So we finally have a seperation of subgenres. GW2 for one group, Archage/Eve/etc for the other. This is good.
The Deep Web is sca-ry. |

Originally posted by Aerowyn whats also interesting about this, is that he chooses to post about GW2 MORE than any other videogame out there. GW2 is obviously the most important game to him even if he doesn't realize it. All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick. |

Originally posted by Toxia After the GW2 success the Archeage/EvE/WoD types of games will remain underdog. Most companies will continue to cater to the mass market and that is clearly the GW2 target audience. I don´t even want to know how many great game concepts have been scrapped or crippled by now to adapt to the GW2 type themepark scheme. GW2 is not even an inch of a sandbox. |

I gave it a 6 / 10 at launch and still stand by my score. It is an ok game.. As a B2P game it is worth the box fee.

Originally posted by boxsnd You can say that about all mmorpgs. Tell me which mmorpg you didn't leave after 1 month or got bored? I still enjoy GW2 but it's not as fun after 2 months because i've played over 300 hours in that short time. Also, there is coming more content in November which will be a refreshment.

Originally posted by Yakamomoto So let me see if I have this right. You think that after 8 years of producing utter garbage, that GW2 will somehow change the rate at which garbage is produced, either for better or for worse? You should write fantasy fiction. There were no great game concepts before, GW2 isn't going to change that. In fact, there are more sandbox games on the horizon than ever, most of which don't resemble GW2 in the slightest. Stop being so melodramatic. no GW2 won't kill WoW, but it's time to move on and quit worrying about those people still playing it. - eyelolled |

Anyhow, GW2 is doing great and you're disappointed in that. We understand. I'm sorry that other people enjoying a game is causing you distress.
EDIT: The mods removed his comment, so I'll remove my reply. All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick. |

When I first started playing, I would have rated it a very solid 8. Now, after not playing for about 2 months now, I'd have to downgrade it to 7.5. Still a good game and well worth the pruchase price but I got bored with it far too quickly, hence the lower score.
Is a man not entitled to the herp of his derp? |

Originally posted by InFlamestwo 2 MMOs: WoW and DAoC, about 3 years each. Why? DAoC's endgame PvP was addicting as hell. If they didn't destroy it with those horrible expansions I would still play today. Now about WoW, the PvE (leveling/gear progression) was somewhat fun, but I was never crazy about it. I guess my standards are higher now.
GW2 had a great chance to be the next big thing but they blew it with the lack of FUN endgame progression. DAoC - Excalibur & Camlann |

I stand by my 8.5/10.
Role playing is what you make of it in MMOs. |

Originally posted by Yakamomoto Do you even play GW2? Heavy Cash Shop Centric itemization? What in blazes are you going on about? I haven't had to rely on the service team yet, so good or bad it doesn't really matter to me. At first they were no doubt swamped. As players wisen up problems should sink to managable levels.   |

Originally posted by boxsnd Which MMO, released in the past few years, grew a player base and just kept on growing like WOW did? I'll save you the trouble of answering...none. And DAoC was also pre-WOW. Those also happen to be the two I played the longest just like you. But unlike you, I don't come to the conclusion that this means that they have all been inferior to WOW and DAoC--quite the opposite actually.
There are many theories as to why MMOers don't stick to anything longer than a couple of months these days. A big part of it, imho is that now we have many, many choices. When I started DAoC there was UO, EQ, AC and that was about it. When WOW released about a month after EQ II the choices were those I mentioned + AC II and SWG. We grew communities simply because we set down roots... there was nothing else to it.
Now we have at least 5 or 6 major releases every year and a host of minor ones. People drift to other MMOs pretty quickly now. I tend to stay around longer than most but even I have gone through Rift, SWTOR, Tera, TSW and GW2 in the past 12 months. I've resisted Pandaville so far but I do have 2 level 85 characters back there waiting for me.
8 years ago we stuck around basically because we were playing one of the only MMOs in town.
You and others are continually banging your heads against the wall trying to find fault with the games you leave behind when in fact you're just leaving because something else catches your attention.
At any rate, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
PS. At the risk of being excomunicated by DAoCite community, I'll just go ahead and say it: GW2 WvW > DAoC RvR. |

Originally posted by JoeyMMO He doesn't play GW2. He tried the BWE though and that has given him pretty deep insight into the game. I think he reads stuff here and there too, though that is just a assumption. All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick. |

I didnt score rate this game on this forum, since it makes no sense. Most new games are totally overhyped on the score board and GW2 is one of it. I would give it a 7 in rating, but since so many did hype this game you would need to vote with minus ratings. Makes no sense.

Originally posted by Aerowyn Wait a minute. Several posts back before the one I'm quoting here, you were defending someone for giving the game a 10 because, for their own reasons, that's what it deserved to them. Now, someone gives it a low score for reasons they feel it's deserved while they played it, and yet here you are challenging them on it and attempting to dismiss their opinion. So, it's okay for people to give a perfect score as long as "it deserves it for them", but the same doesn't hold true for lower scores? I believe that's called a double standard. Careful, Aerowyn. Your bias is showing. |

I still rate this game a 10, its the best themepark game I've played. I play GW2 along side with SC4 I'll be playing until SC5 is released in Feb.. Depending the the multi player function of SC5, it could be more or less time on GW2. |
