It was really fun.. I tryed everything it had to offer. And yeah, I beat the clocktower today. Logged in and beat it in the first attempt of the day, and then did it twice in a row. I guess it's not that hard after you beat it...

I was pretty impressed with this event. I don't know if it was so big just because it was their first live event or what...but I can say with confidence that it was the most involved and content-rich holiday event I've ever seen in an MMORPG. I mean, holiday events typically consist of a decorated city, maybe a few quests related to the holiday, some fireworks and that's it. This holiday event had a fairly ridiculous amount of stuff. I mean, they added an entire ZONE for the freaking holiday event, that's insane. Are you team Azeroth, team Tyria, or team Jacob? |

I was all happy until I heard the Mad King use a joke that I had originally posted on these forums. It's not like I need credit or anything it's just that hardly anybody laughed when I said it, but everyone laughed it up when the Mad Kind was making his rounds. I guess if you have a garden vegetable for a head then people laugh no matter the joke. Take a look at Carrot Top...

Originally posted by eyelolled lol yup!:). and for the event most content rich event i can remember doing in recent memory.. very pleased:) 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 Damzilla I found the trick to dealing with the alrger character models was to stop trying to see your character and just concentrate on timing with a general feel of where you cahracter is,you should know coz he shoudl be in the saem spot on your screen most of the time. As soon as I started doign that I left the larger character far behind em and compelted the event.Also the second half is easier than the first for two reason there are less people about heh and you have more time and consequently don't get get caught up on inconsistent terrain when running wildly to keep ahead of the green goo. |

Can't bring myself to vote one way or another due to strong ambivalence. It was literally awesome in some ways and terrible in others.
When I want a single-player story, I'll play a single-player game. When I play an MMO, I want a massively multiplayer world. |

Originally posted by Drakynn My main is currently a Norn. This is what I do for all the jumping puzzles and hurdles I have to cross. When I switch to my Asura I have to do this too or the shift in size difference throws me off. Anyway, the event has been great fun for me and I haven't really even completed some of the specific challenges. Normally that would bother me, but I'm just enjoying the atmosphere, the GW1 throwbacks, and costume brawling which is awesome even though I suck at it. |

Originally posted by Drakynn My main is a Norn also and jumping puzzles are usually ok for me as I can take the time to think about what I'm going to do....usually. The clock tower was just too fast for me to be able to handle without taking 5 hours of patient learning. I just didn't have that kind of time.

It was OK to poor at best. Most of the good parts existed in the cash shop though.
Mining candy corn was funny. Carving pumpkins - cute. Brawling - kind of dumb. Lore quests - meh. Quickly done and somewhat lackluster. Haunted Door encounters - more fighting, meh. Dungeon and other stuff - passable. Jumping puzzles - OK I guess (I still and trying to muster the motivation to do other vistas). Artwork added nicely to the feeling of Halloween.
I didn't like how the acts were released slowly. All it did was add a disconnect, and after waiting days for the next act, it became more of a struggle to want to log back in. I would have rather had them all at once. Everything in the Halloween event could be done for an achievement & title which is pretty useless, since there is no achievement inspects and social structure in GW2.
What I will remember from this Halloween event is Candy Corn, a huge shennanigans with ArenaNet imposing gambling into the cash shop, and a very clever, mischeveous song (The only song in the game worth mentioning).

You really should have put an "Indifferent/Don't care" option. I really wish they wouldn't waste time on this kind of nonsense when there are real issues that should be being worked on. It's the classic BS of give a whole bunch of mediocrity and most people will love it. |
