by "original Guild Wars 2", do you mean the very first patch, which would be something like Guild Wars 2 Classic? If so, no. If you just mean make a new character..of course.

You're seeing an attack where there was none. The poster seemed to be simply commenting on "awesome" being subjective and expand on what they personally felt awesome to mean.

On the slim chance that you're honestly looking for a discussion on why nipples aren't going to be allowed, but underboob is, imo, societies are different, and they change. Right now, most Western societies, while okay with a lot of sexualization, are not generally okay with putting outright nudity in video games that a lot of teenagers will be playing. So yes, all the "it's just the human body", "don't put women back to the 20th century" has nothing to do with it, it's just the current societal norms combined with wanting to appeal to as many people as possible. They "free the nipple", and they have to increase their rating, which means they reduce their potential customer base.

hmm, I never thought of it like that. That's actually a great way of framing achievements. I often get frustrated with collections in GW2, but if you treat them as short/medium/long term goals, it can give you focus. I'm going to try that out. Great post, thanks for this.

Where's the male bulge enhancing armor? I call sexism 😞

their purpose is to ridicule you, not understand you. No point in engaging with them.

They've just shifted the monetization in a way that makes you think they're helping you out. It's still money going into their pockets.

It's something most mmos just can't let go of. Every few meters of the world HAS to have enemies just standing around waiting to attack. It ends up feeling like a Theme Park instead of a real world, but that's what most players seem to want, so it's still a thing.

This is the reason OP's suggestion will never happen. Create a problem, sell you the solution.

i think it was an autogenerated xbox live name or something, can't remember.

according to the forum, i thought EoD metas were constantly going, and no one ever failed one. What you're saying doesn't make sense.

One point I read recently was that because the mounts aren't given to players, the maps have to be designed around guaranteed mounts, so no maps that are explicitly designed to ONLY be travelled around with griffons or skyscale. Which is a shame in a sense, it'd be neat to have some more variety of maps.

How many hours do you have in the game to get to the point where you go through the entire story and not take any damage? And what percentage of players do you suppose can do the same?

It's fun to have a build you enjoy OP, glad you're enjoying yourself! Ignore the forum debbie downers.

I've always thought this was a silly argument. "I don't have the issue, so it's not an issue."

Nonsense. Guild Wars 2 is way too easy and every Souls game is getting easier. My hundreds of hours of practice has nothing to do with it.

after i removed them (and the twitter side bar) with ublock the forums are much better. I would recommend the same to everyone.

people love plushies, i see nothing wrong with that. Oh wait, you mean in-game? NO. hell no.

That would be ironic, getting a suspension for constantly spamming "SEARCH THE FORUMS, MAKING DUPLICATE THREADS IS AGAINST THE COC" Also, i have to laugh at implying that doing the same thing over and over again with no change in results is insanity when that's exactly what our resident "please search the forums" poster does. On topic: OP, that would be nice, but it's not going to happen unless they can monetize it.

And why were you able to purchase that stuff with in game gold? Where does the money for those items come from? also, 30 hours a week since the game release. holy kitten. You're definitely NOT the average player, so pretending your experience is anything but the extreme 1% is disingenuous.

1. you're not the average 10 year player if you've never purchased a single thing from the store other than the base game and expansions. 2. have you played at least once a month for the last 10 years? 3. Why do you suppose GW2 doesn't have a subscription?

people always laugh at FFXIV saying it's a weeb game but I've always found it to be at least visually consistent. Everything in the game generally looks like it fits in there to some degree. Guild Wars 2 on the other hand, well just look at the starting zones when the Steam launch happened. It was color/special effect vomit. There are some times when the game looks so good, but then you have these ridiculous cosmetics that just seem completely removed from the game world.

What does "piked" mean in this context?

I'm sure the argument is "Why would they do that? People should be forced to see everyone's cosmetic effects to encourage more transactions." but I have my doubts how many people that are the type to actively search for and disable the option to show other player cosmetics would be purchasing cosmetics based on seeing them on someone else. But, the "if it doesn't make them more money, it's pointless" will always show up regardless.
