So players would play GW1 instead of GW2? How would this help ANet's bottom line? I would think that ANet would prefer players to leave GW1 and play GW2 because GW2 is where they make their money. It would be folly for them to encourage players to return to GW1.

I don't do WvW so please help explain what "advantage" is given here?

Aerial combat would require more three dimensional thinking. Seems to me, with the lack of focus on underwater content this isn't something high on Anet's priority list.

This is a well supported marketing tactic that works. If it didn't, then they wouldn't use it.

Almost wish the game would die just to stop the constant pining for Cantha.

There is a QoL thread conveniently stickied at the top of the forum for these kinds of things :)https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/53097/suggestions-qol-quality-of-life-ideas

Yeah, seeing that this was a design choice from the start, I don't see them changing it now.

Data from GW2Efficiency is a small sampling of the entire player base.

There seems to be some confusion:The currency exchange has a supply of Gems and Gold.If players are converting Gold to Gems, then the Amount of Gold player will receive for their gems goes up.If players are converting Gems to Gold, then the amount of Gems players receive for Gold goes up.The exchange rate changes based on the scarcity of each supply. You cannot inflate it, it’s an exchange rate. As players purchase in one direction, it entices purchases in the other direction.

There is a good breakdown/explanation in this thread: https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/94404/whats-the-deal-with-wintersday-daily-requiring-some-to-be-repeated-twice

The gold farms have dramatically influenced this market. Before Istan, gems were selling between 70-85 gold (give or take) whereas now they're over twice that amount (somewhere around 150g). This is due to more people purchasing gems with gold rather than IRL cash that reduces the amount of gems available which drives up the demand price. When players stop buying gems with IRL cash (because gold is so terribly easy to acquire), the gem prices shoot higher.

Nope. Not a fan of this fad.

No one ever believes Anet gets money twice. You don't seem to comprehend that the gems you buy with gold don't just appear. They were still bought, by someone else, at some other time. But nonetheless, the gems you recieve were paid for in cash, to Anet. So when someone buys 800 gems with his ingame gold, Anet still - at some point before - got 10 bucks for it. Just like they do when you buy the 800 gems with 10 bucks yourself..Yeah, nice job assuming what I comprehend. I KNOW that they were bought by someone else. When I convert gold -> gems, my account receives gems that someone else purchased. Some argue that by me doing so, Anet is still getting money from MY transaction when the initial gem purchase by a third person has already been completed.
