  1. Not in the way that matters. GW2's selling point is fluid mass zerg vs zerg or massive pve world boss combat, not graphic fidelity. GW3 would likely end up being a black desert clone at best.
  2. And you don't think the old positions the previous people held had the same requirements? In my job, I'm in a position to have interviewed people and I can tell you that there's a massive gap between written requirements and the candidates that show up or the candidates you settle for.
  3. And what makes you think the new people coming in who presumably have less industry experience are going to create something better?
  4. Unreal 5 is good for graphics, but it's highly doubtful it'll be conducive to the large-scale wvw battles people are accustomed to in GW2. GW3 with Unreal 5 will probably end up being a black desert clone.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. There were no promises implied or otherwise that legendaries made you immune from additions of other gear slots.
  10. Except that wasn't my comment. That was the comment I responded to with a hypothetical. Yet again you strawman by attributing that initial comment to me and started a chain of vehement attacks. You derailed the discussion with this nonsense, and now you accuse me of being off-topic. Ironic.
  11. 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.
  12. I never said people can't reply. I merely said it was fascinating to watch people response to something so vehemently to something that presumably isn't applicable or addressed to them.
  13. There you go ahead translating things that were never said into headcanon. There's no expectation of legendary equipment making you "protected" from new equipment slots in the future.
  14. 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.
  15. So go argue with the person that made that post then. I merely responded to him with a hypothetical about my employees. I'm increasingly suspecting that those statements aren't as inapplicable as I thought they were considering the vehement responses.
  16. Why would anything be stirred up if the hypothetical response isn't applicable or targeted at anyone? Seems like you're the one that's stirring up an argument over totally innocuous posts that weren't even addressed to you.
  17. It's generally relevant in that changes or the reluctance of changes are being discussed. I just added a tangential hypothetical. Ironically you're the one that's attempting to stir up a whole argument chain over a couple of innocuous statements.
  18. 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.
  19. 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.
  20. All those people said was some people are "reluctant to have any change". No one was named or targeted. The fact that you so defensively and with such hostility respond to these innocuous statements shows someone is insecure about how applicable the statements are to themselves.
  21. None of those posts were addressed to you or anyone else specifically. They were talking about people not wanting ANY change. If you weren't such a person then they weren't applicable to you. So what's the problem?
  22. I posed a hypothetical in response to someone else. The thing about hypotheticals is that the person posing it gets to define the parameters. You are trying to project your own parameters which I never proposed onto my hypothetical. It is straw-manning.
  23. I was responding to someone else talking about people being reluctant to any changes. I didn't bring it up. You merely read into it what you wanted as usual.
  24. 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.
  25. I find it fascinating that you respond when you weren't even named in our posts. The gentleman dost protest too much, methinks.
