You realize the same team that implemented the "garbage" code will be implementing the new game right? What makes you think a new game will be any different? The only real difference a new game will make is you have to buy all the microtransaction skins and account features again. Tech hasn't advanced far enough to justify a new engine. Any improvements would be marginal.

The reason "vertical progression" has negative connotations is because of ways it invalidates previous gear such as when level caps are increased in WOW forcing people to regrind every piece of their gear for the new level cap. In this expansion, all your old gear will remain valid. You won't need to regrind any of them. There's a new gear slot and you're given a free relic per character above 60 in your account. Even if you label that as vertical progression it lacks the attributes that make vertical progression bad. Labels are just taxonomy. What really matters is what that label points to.

First time? See what I was talking about now? Some people will simply hear what they want to hear regardless of what they were told. The sad part is ANET didn't even promise any of that. Just like what they did to your post they took ANET's words and translated it internally into what they want to hear and are now holding ANET to their made-up head canon promises.

Except it is new. If you read ANET's statements relics will have a large number of new effects never before seen. The flexibility of being able to combine old and new effects with stats that you want brings a whole new meta.

There were no promises implied or otherwise that legendaries made you immune from additions of other gear slots.

My initial response was to the person talking about how people are totally reluctant to any change. My subsequent responses were to defend myself from vehement attacks because it apparently triggered some people. If my subsequent responses weren't related to the thread than the people responding to me are even less on topic.

It's been pointed out to you many times throughout this thread that no such "assurance" was made anywhere by ANET. The documented promises were to not go beyond Ascended in quality, not to exceed level 80 cap, and that legendaries would have QOL to customize stat sets. All of which remains true. The main problem with many people is that whatever they hear they have translation software in their brain to translate into whatever they want to hear. The gap between false expectations and reality is where resentment is born.

I made a hypothetical about my own employees being completely reluctant to change in response to someone else talking about some people being reluctant of change. No one was named or targeted specifically. I don't see why anyone who those statements don't apply would so vehemently and defensively respond.
-
Focus please. I don't have telepathy I don't know who they were talking about. I merely responded with a hypothetical about my own employees being completely reluctant of having any change. It's just fascinating you're responding so vehemently to something that presumably isn't even applicable to you.
-
How did "reluctant of any changes" become "**** your employees over"? You did a head translate into a strawman again? I find it very fascinating that all I said was "If I had employees so reluctant of any changes they would no longer be my employees." which doesn't name or target anyone and a bunch of people were so triggered that they responded defensively. It's almost as if they deep down know that the statement is applicable to them and they self-reported.
