  I love it when devs use social media to be make passive aggressive remarks about their customers. Stay classy anet

-shrug- MK's made posts like that before and Anet apparently hasn't advised him against doing so...  Odd way for community manager to approach it, but whatever. It does sound a lot more sincere than taking an apologetic tone because he actually seems annoyed enough to do that. I guess that's how I'm gonna rationalize that anyway.

It is his private twitter.

Private Twitter? Lol thats an oxymoron  

---

He isn't talking in a Arenanet official channel so whatever he says is irrelevant.

---

Hehe sure buddy :)

 

If you prefer personal twitter instead of private life twitter be my guest.

Arenanet as a company isn't liable for whatever their employees say in their personal/private life, so I wouldn't be surprised whatever he says is the exact opposite of reality.

Having the developer make the items you've worked hard for and the content you've worked hard in obsolete? No bueno.

I hope Anet doesn't listen to the "Hardcore Casuals tm." I hope they stick to their guns. The game needs progression.

 It's like the hardcore casual dont want the game to move forward but at the same time ArenaNet should of just made a proper MMO.

GW2 doesn't know what it is because with each item grind the game becomes less and less what the casuals though it was about.

Fun.

Fact is this just sets GW2 on the path of treadmill item grind but other MMOs do that better with better dungeons and trinity.

What happened to fishing or housing or guild halls.

Why didn't they just make a darkness falls type dungeon with new items that are still legendary and new skins.

Problem with what you're saying is that by adding this gear progression they're in fact NOT sticking to their guns.  Hell it's in their golden rules!  There is not supposed to be ANY gear progression system, no gear grind.  They're blatantly NOT sticking to what they said by doing this.  (Assuming this is another real gear tier).

If they're so OK about changing their core fundamentals so quickly then the game will empty out sooner over later.

LOL. I heard this one the other day:

"What happens in Vegas, stays....on Facebook...on Twitter...on YouTube..."

Origin

Maybe we can get a aggro utility ability for warriors and gaurdians next patch.

hahaha I love it !

An Endless gear grind is one of the worst features you can put in an MMO. EQ and WoW both suffer for it, while the better MMOs designed AROUND it.

Does that mean that this new addition is endgame and that the whole rest of the game isn't endgame?  I seem to remember "the whole game is endgame" being thrown around quite a bit.

Who knows. GW2 still hasn't figured out what it wants to be when it grows up. Maybe in time we'll find out.

Hey grim, good to see you!

Hey hey! Back from camping (it was freakin cold!).
