Funny. But since they took away the ability for engineers to toss turrets at range, I don't think this would happen. Still. I like the idea

Unfortunately, not every game is for everyone. I really wanted to like Blade and Soul, but there were aspects of the game play that just didn't work for me. So, I'm here instead playing a game which is more to my liking and my more casual style.

Adding Tengu as a race doesn't really add anything new. You would still be constrained to the current professions. In my opinion, an expansion should add new content, not a re-skin of existing content.

Not everyone.

Arm wings.

That might have been the point of the change? It was fine for seven years. Why change it now? It just made roaming and dueling for ele harder, especially for builds that don't rely on weaver (sword). They did this to Mist Form, which is understandable because it's a utility skill, but for a weapon skill to be so useless like this... Nah, this nerf was dumb. I won't argue about whether it's dumb or not (kinda is); rather my point was that Anet may have decided to make this change, in part for the reason you stated.

That might have been the point of the change?

Ranger already has druid. Seems like shaman would be closer to that spec than elementalist?

To me, this seems more like a solution looking for a problem.

More threads, perhaps, but I wonder the ratio of posts in those threads? You are probably closer to accuracy in your point, though. Still, it would be interesting to discover ... but not interesting enough for either of us to pour through all of the Cantha threads and count posts!

Add me to the "nope" group.

The fact that it is very likely going to be Cantha themed already answers your question. This in and of itself is a safe and boring choice. Who can blame them? Entertainment media companies these days rarely do anything original anymore. Why should features be unique and genre challenging when they can't even get out of the wayback machine plotwise. Here's to the next few years of going places we've already seen in GW1, more Star Wars and Marvel, and generally no new ideas. Hooray!! PLayer base: You never listen to us.Anet: WE're doing an expansion. WE're going to Cantha just as so many of you asked for.Playerbase: Cantha is boring why can't we go somewhere new. You might be bored with Cantha but plenty of people want to see what Cantha's like 250 years after the Ministry of Purity kicked out all the non-human races. To be fair, the entire playerbase did NOT want to see Cantha. There were plenty of posts in the forums about wanting to go somewhere else.

Pretty sure ANet learned a lesson on the release of HoT. I don't expect to see anything with that level of difficulty since it was nerfed. PoF is more of what I believe we can expect.

I never finished the core story. I got bored with it. I have finished the two expansions, though.

I'm not sure it's a lot of people, but I know the OP is far from the first person to ask for this as an option, and I'm sure they won't be the last. I agree. I just get tired of people requesting things because, according to them, they seem to know how many people want their request to happen so then it follows that it MUST happen.

"A lot of people want this"I hardly think so.

This made me laugh. Factions in GW1 brought PvP elements to PvE so maybe with this expansion they'll ignore alliances and do that ;) I really hope not. In my opinion, this would have significant backlash. Unless you're referring to something similar to Silverwastes/Drytop?

Why did we need a new thread for this?

Voting "NO" on the cyberpunk idea.

New weapon implies new skills, though... Which is supports his point even MORE. ... and making alts doesn't do anything for you because alts aren't new ways to play a class. It's just more of the same class. So you believe that especs are different from each other more than classes are different from other classes... I disagree. I think you misunderstand ... even if you roll alts in other classes, that doesn't extinguish people's desire to play a specific class in a different way. That's the appeal of especs. If picking a class was a meaningless choice, then you would have something there. They can still play a specific class in a different way, that’s just one way to.That depends on the mode. META in competitive play forces one's hand to play specific classes/builds. Open world, not so much.
