Originally posted by RefMinor This is under the umbrella of hype-backlash.

Not discounting Blizzard quality... but WoW's success is as much about perfect timing as it is quality, if not more so. - Derros |

Originally posted by grimal how am I taking it personally? just curious how after all that was known about the game could people feel "cheated" 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 grimal ahh lol just tired of the same arguments over and over and over.. hence the sarcasm I angered the clerk in a clothing shop today.

Originally posted by Aerowyn Yep. It can get very annoying when people keep making the same complaint over and over about the game you love. You just have to not take it personal.

Originally posted by khameleon With so many points I'd like to correct, but I'm focusing on this one. When you people mention that PvE is too easy and soloable 1-80, you should also mention, by virtue of being responsible and not just downright bashing the game, that challenging group content are also available, and in abundance. Champions are scattered everywhere, with most of the DE chains ending on a boss battle. It's NOT ACCEPTABLE to just paint this generalization that the PvE is only easy and soloable. It is easy and soloable, for people who don't have the time to find groups to do the more challenging ones. I can stay within the 1-15 zone till I'm 80, and that would prove your statement, but that doesn't justify me saying that it's easy and soloable and convey how there is no challenge to be had in the game. If you find the PvE part too unchallenging for your taste, know that there are ones that require a group. What do you say? Wanna take down a couple of Champs? I'm in Borlis Pass...look up Khin Runite. |

Originally posted by grimal Nah, it's just that this site attracts people that want a new game to be excited about. Lots of antis thought this game would make them like mmos again. Then they blamed gw2 when it didn't make them like mmos again. Now they think that harder, grindier, sandbox games will be the answer. Oh, the poor devs that make a game for them, and then watch them leave when they don't keep playing that for more than 2 weeks either. LOL. These people are simply too saturated with mmos. They need time off from all games. |

Remmeber before gw2 came out? All the hype from fans? Well these folks are the anti hypers. Same kind of mental madness but in reverse. The hypests told us gw2 would butter our bread. The haters held thier slices of bread up to the screen and got mad cause they like jam on thier bread and it didn't put no butter on thier bread anyway. I just laugh at them and log into one of the best mmo worlds I've played In a long time.

There is some truth to this. I think some people play on the computer way to much and get mildly depressed. They seek a game that will make fun happy times, when fun happy won't come unless they take a break from gaming for a few days. |

Originally posted by grimal game i love.... you guys are funny with labels and all.. it's a game.. yes I talk about it a lot for a couple reasons I have a lot of free time at work right now and I enjoy the game.. but it's just that a game.. if a better one comes along Ill go play that.. i don't get so attached to a game that if I don't find a better one I won't move on.. for me I don't see any better MMOs out right now after playing pretty much every one.. and with GW2 being B2P it's an extra bonus in my book 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 Aerowyn I meant you in the object sense. Not you specifically. When I was playing TOR the first few months and I took the time away to come here, it used to annoy me at some of the things people said. But after a while I realized the pattern here at MMORPG and take everything with a grain of salt. Now let's be honest. You can't sit here and tell me after 5k posts mainly about GW2 you don't have some sort of emtional attachment to it. Don't bullsh* a bullshi**. Edit: It took me 3 years to finally admit to myself and others Tha Phantom Menace was crap. So I've been there before.
