Enough with heavily scripted and "special action" mechanics
Orack.9756 replied to Paradoxoglanis.1904's topic in Living World
One of the many reason I don't like story. Script. Annoying "friendly" char. Weird / no-coherent writing choice. I really want to get in, but really can't, story always feel like a pain to do. -
Taimi is supposed to be more and more sick, did they forget about it?
Orack.9756 replied to Aodlop.1907's topic in Lore
Taimi : One of the greatest scientist of their time. Also Taimi : Can't creat an exo-leg to stop limp outside of her Robot. One of the many weird thing in the story that make it impossible to get "in" or get sympaty for characters to me and many friends.. -
Can agree with that since most of the elite are trash anyway.

Fixed*

No thanks, I don't see what it would add to the game. I really think we've enough mount and most of use use mainly the skyscale anyway. I'm just waiting for the surprise of a new thing.

On Player Interaction: The Main Achilies Heel of GW2
Orack.9756 replied to Arnox.5128's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I was on ESO for 2 year before coming in GW2 because I wasn't happy with the direction they take and all the bug. ESO have an amazing story and I agree Housing, even if badly implanted and behind a pain w/o mod is amazing and I'm sad GW2 don't have this because a friend stayed on ESO cuz GW2 don't have it and she really like this aspect in an mmo. I'm very surprise they don't have add it yet tbh. -
On Player Interaction: The Main Achilies Heel of GW2
Orack.9756 replied to Arnox.5128's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
A bit late on this thread but here is my pov from an older mmorpg player. I've played almost exclusively mmorpg since the ~2000 and have seen how mmorpg evolved in the bad way. My english is limited but I'll try to explain my pov the best I can. I see people speaking about interaction tool w/o understanding that these tool ARE the problem for low interaction. Same for all these "recent" game who put the leveling and grinding experience in the easily boring way this is. So, why I think like this ? I've play Lineage 2, a lot, almost 10 years. It's was by far the most grindfest I've ever see in a game. And you know what ? It was amazing ! I only have amazing memories on this game and I never felt that again in other mmorpg thant come after. You know why it's was not boring despite the fact it was a hell of a grind ? That because since the leveling phase (almost infiny by how long it take for the avera player to get max level, unless like me you played since the start.) you had to play with people. Why ? Because before all those "recent" mmorpg their was class, mostly trinity, but most of the time way more. Ranged physical, magical, assassin, tank, summoner, many different support/heal/recharger (for mana), etc.. Each class was heavily focused on 1 aspect and the open world was fast very dangerous so you can't do it alone. Added to that, no communication tool except of chat and guild. So, what people did ? They speak to each other, and when they matched and having fun and good result playing togheter they added to friendlist even if not same guild or even in war with the guild of the player. Open world pvp + very low drop rate on some specific craft material was also a huge factor on peaple speaking trying to negociate, making war, elaborat strategy on the fly to try denied a zone from a random guild while pugging and ofc, no instanced content (And I don't even speak of those World Boss with huge respawn time and a chance (60% if I remember) to drop an unique powerful jewel making huge PvP scale / alliance / etc.. All that combined made the world a very dangerous but very fun place. I've encounter and have fun with far more than hundred and hundred player and never find that in other game because now most class can do anything solo, no danger, class can buff/heal/dps/evading in pretty much the same basis on this mmorpg generation (gw2, aion, terra, dragon nest, etc..) and it has gotten worse and worse. Now people just see the end of a game while a mmorpg was at base made to not have one and made people play togheter in a fantasy world meeting people you'll never have meet otherwise. Now, outside of some instanced content and a bunch of meta (for gw2, most game have a dead open world) you rarely speak to stranger or rarely get answer anyway outside of gaming question. And I said that for GW2 who, imho, have one of the most amazing community right now. Imagine other game.. Sorry for the wall, I hope it's readable and my point is understandable. All for that to say, the more option you had to get in a group/guild and the less difficulty the grind, leveling, open world, class offer the less people will interact. Also, yes, I'm maybe a bit nostalgic ^^ -
Can't Wait to Comeback to GW2
Orack.9756 replied to SoulGuardian.6203's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
Feel you, I had a bit more luck, I finally find a job where I'm fine and the day where I earn my 1st paid my computer die, would have be difficult to replace him w/o a job.. -
Thief is very good for solo with p/p and event more with sniper spe. Ton of buff, ton of dmg, good evade/invisibility. Heal when dealing dmg. gameplay ? Push skill 3 and then do it again when it end. Never clear a map/story as fast as thief. Ranger is a popular easy pick with good burst and pet that can help you. Sustain dps is pretty meh. Some good buff and utility skill. That said, all class can do all. Just pick what appeal to you and learn to play it.

DPS Quickness scrapper - one tiny buff away from achieving greatness
Orack.9756 replied to Imba.9451's topic in Engineer
I like this idea -
Hello :) Just wanna share my opinion about OP Thread : I agree with him on the fact that is way to much glowy thing to my own taste. That said, unlike ESO where we had to see them anyway we go in a populated town, here we've an option to make all player with basic tenue which help to avoid this. So, I don't mind. People are free to look how they love. I myself made char with particular look that I find cool but I'm sur many people won't like it because of different taste, not a big deal ^^ (also want to see OP char :p) That said, do we have a "char showroom on this forum ? It's always fun to see idea from everyone ^^

Literal hot garbage - viper 10-men alacrimage
Orack.9756 replied to NICENIKESHOE.7128's topic in Mesmer
Good to know then, was afraid than staff was back to trash to dps. I don't mind if they rework staff to make it less braindead. But for the love of me I just want a "mage" spe playable with a Staff. Every staff in the game are for pvp or trash. Or, like actual mesmer or daredevil : braindead. If it's still an usefull weapon then, I'm fine with it even if braindead, but yeah, would also love something more skill rewarding. -

New Player: Mount question

Can relate, I've blow so much gold, probably more than 10k in fashion xD But hey, that the true end-game :> -
New Player: Mount question
Orack.9756 replied to K I N I S H I.8251's topic in Players Helping Players
Hello @K I N I S H I.8251 Not gonna reply directly but given to you an advice instead. Don't look at Griffin / Skyscale about number like time, gold or so. See them as a little adventure with good reward. Otherwise you'll end like many people posting on the forum complaining about why it's so long/expensive/hard/boring/etcc.. to get it. It become like that only when people want to rush it. Take your time, enjoy the run accross the Tyria, if you can do it with friend (I've help 3 guildmate to get them even if I had already mine) it's even better. Having fun is important :) -
Rollerbeetle dismount - am I doing this wrong?
Orack.9756 replied to Hesione.9412's topic in Players Helping Players
Their is a frame after the boost where you can't dismount. Otherwise I don't have problem with that. Try another key ? Mine is on the mouse. -
I want a bow. And like Greatsword is ranged, I want a full melee bow. Fight me.
