Here's your Season 1, good as it's going to get. Personally if I were ANet I'd take this production and put some of their own polishing and editing into it. -

It would be nice to have a playable Season One in some form, that said have you played WoW lately there's a game with major timeline issues. Lvl 1 to 60 takes place during Cataclysm, then 60 to 80 you have a choice of doing either Burning Crusade or Wrath of the Lich King which takes you back in time and you lose further narrative coherence by choosing to skip an expansion, then from 80 to 90 it's back to the present or slightly future where you choose either Cataclysm or Panda Land, then you travel to a parallel universe yet slightly to the past to take on Orc Warchiefs that have been dead since Warcraft 1 and 2 in Warlords of Draenor, then you do Legion. Just look up that 3 hour Season 1 movie on YouTube and count your lucky stars you don't have to watch a bunch of Noebbel87 videos to piece together WoWs busted up story. -
I'm not the one adding the 46% of those that voted for both with those that voted for easy (and hard) as if to justify a non-existent point. I'm sorry but that's not how percentages work. You can use the actual results of the poll:Both easy and hard: 46%Only easy: 7%Only hard: 7%Nothing: 31%Some other solution: 7% Any additions afterward are just trying to twist the results. looks evenly matched to me, I picked both because I think everyone should have their cake and eat it to as did the other 46%, then there was 7% in the exclusive categories.Sort of breaks down the same way as political views in the US, you've got your Fringe Left, your Alt Right, and a ton of Moderates.

I don't really care any more, I don't really believe ANet takes Raiding or Fractals seriously any way if you look at the release intervals, and the DPS disparity between classes that is never fixed out of 5 years of balance patches. Trust me fellow Easy Mode Supporters, we've got it made on our end of the spectrum as far as content releases are concerned, LW Updates every 2 to 3 months along with Bounties (which is basically Open World Easy Mode Raiding right there). You want Ascended Armor, no problem just farm the popular Farms for a week or 2 and bankroll a crafter on one of your characters. You want to look fly like these guys in Legendary Armor, just farm Open World for 2 weeks, convert some gold to Gems and buy your self an Outfit with the same flashy effects as Legendary Armor which looks great if you're creative with your dyes like I am. You don't need the stat swapping functionality if you're doing fun stuff with the rest of us so why bother getting crammed into a META Box to bank roll a long expensive process of crafting a set of armor that still clips just as much as any other armor. Raids and Fractals will always be on a semi annual release cadence because ANet follows Metrics, and Metrics tells them more people play Open World Content and those people spend more money, stop trying to get your selves into a exclusive yet second class situation. I've thought a lot about this and I actually feel sorry for Raiders in this game, you get less content, longer waits, and really bad balance patches which leads to boring build diversity.

I love Outfits, I've bought well over 20 of them, I'd say between Outfits and converting Gems to Gold to buy Black Lion Weapon Skins from the Trading Post these expenditures probably account for almost 40% of all my Gem purchases with the rest going toward Character Slots, Bag Slots, Bank Tabs, Mount Skins, and lvl 80 boosts.

The ONE thing wrong with Sandswept Isles

I've never been a fan of RNG either how ever I plan on doing Open World Events multiple times because I like having fun so there's that. -
I might be interested, I can be salty at times but not out of Malice. At this point I'm basically an Open World PVE guy that's only comfortable playing a Power Reaper and has come to expect that I'll never do anything higher than T1 Fractals because I'm a Power Reaper. It would just be nice to try to talk in Guild Chat and not look like the weirdo on the bus that's talking to him self. Despite all my issues I should still fall within the boundaries of the rules.

New playable races study - Choose your favorite

Every time I loot something I want my Skritt platoon to chant stuff stuff stuff! Having a small group of 6 Skritt makes the most sense, no need to fit armor pieces since each Skritt would be carrying a huge armor piece, you need at least 6 to get their intelligence high enough to associate with the other races. Have their personal story start in that camp in Caledon Forest with your platoon of Skritt being the entourage of the future King of Skrittsburg having the level 20 story establishing them selves in Skrittsburg, have their Vigil/Priory/Whisperer intro quests piggy back of the Asura/Sylvari ones. -

It would be nice to see Season One just so we have a coherent story how ever there is a current MMO with an even more incoherent narrative and that is World Of Warcraft; ever since Cataclysm you start as a lvl one after the events of Wrath of the Lich King dealing with the aftermath of the Cataclysm caused by Deathwing only to go back in time to The Burning Crusade to do the previous two expansions until finally at lvl 80 you are dealing with stuff that would have made more sense at lvl 60. Compared to that at least you get a previously on GW2 recap. There's a 3 hours long movie on YouTube made by many GW2 Youtubers that covers everything in Living Story Season One; personally I think it would be cheaper and easier if ANet were to take that YouTube Video polish it and release it on their website and to give the player in game mail after beating Zaitan suggesting that they watch it. -
Can't get it to work.
