I'd argue that these proportions are not a "problem". Anet has the metrics and knows what makes the most money for them. It would be a bad business decision to move away from a working formula.

No.

But Cantha isn't Japanese.

You may be on to something here, especially as Anet tends to listen to some hype by the players. People pined for Cantha, and we got EoD. People have also asked for Dominion of Winds, so maybe that will happen especially in light of your elemental comparison. Interesting. Maybe Anet will figure out how to do playable tengu, too. That might really boost sales. I kinda doubt it because of all of the work that would probably be involved in getting all of the current armor skins to work on bird-people in a manner that wouldn't kitten off everyone.

The forums represent a very small portion of the player base. It may well be that more would find this interesting; they just don't visit the forums.

No, because repeating it is against the forums CoC.

Yes, it has. Please use the forums search feature.

It's not utterly useless. If the devs read this thread, then they will see that at least one person doesn't want the proposal.

No.

Just as selfish as asking a game studio to change their vision and adapt to what you like in what is a MMO?

Please stop with the playable tengu. It's just not going to happen.

Any changes to the state or direction of the game has to consider this point. Anet is a business. If their investors don't profit, then there's no business. A lot of people around here don't understand how business works.

What problem is this trying to solve? How will this generate more revenue for Anet?

I'd like an entirely new crisis (doesn't need to start out as world-ending) that would take us into places that haven't been opened. I really didn't want Cantha, and what we got was even less entertaining for me than I feel it could have been. Enough nostalgia. Let's go somewhere new.

I don't think that Ane't intention is to have characters running around in their skivvies. You don't like yellow? Put on some pants.

Thanks. To me, it's an off-hand dagger, so that opens up several possibilities of profession. /shrug

Waypoints are already available. I would prefer resources be spent on other things than this.

We don't need to turn GW2 in Mario Brothers.

No.

Only if it comes with more cowbell.

Almost every thread in any profession forum is made with either instanced content or competitive modes in mind. PvE is the outlier since "everything works in PvE".

Some ascended recipes require that you first craft the exotic version. Dragonsblood ones, for example.

Have you looked at the Dragonsblood ones (exotic and ascended)?

No. There are more than enough points, even without running DRMs.
