As I see this atm you have only a couple of options, spend real world money on random chance items & high cost (value) virtual items, that have no real world value.Or don't buy & or leave game, for me its the latter I value my hard earned cash far more than a stupid (stupid to me not every one) virtual skin, the game as stands is a run of the mill mmo not a lot better than some & worse than others, what made this game stand out for me was the community. I have been around many many online games over the years & have seen the ways that companies adopt to farm the customers for cash, the rng is the main stay it would seem for all companies, but never fear it can & may well get worse in the future, do some research to see some of the antics of f2p games & see whats in store for the future, plus you needs the rng stats & percentages to decide if its really in your interest to gamble for a said item in a pool of xx, & as the more items get added the pool enlarges & percentages drop rapidly. Its just a pity I did enjoy my time here, but I refuse to pay large or even small sums of cold hard cash for virtual items, if you love this game & can afford the costs well great enjoy your self, but never tell others they are poor/cheap/etc if they have enough common sense to use there money for real world items. These views are mine & mine alone agree or not, but stop telling other players what they should or should not do/feel/buy, not all do this but enough in this topic alone!!

I guess I am the only one underwhelmed, mounts are great but for me the rest is somewhat meh, the story has some huge holes & issues (I will not go into for spoiler reasons), the maps are okay big & somewhat empty, the bounties seem pointless to me unless you need to collect every trinket & back in the game, game play is same as every other map, dont matter a damn what your build is you can plow mobs, the new meta's are near all the one build viper for most all, before their was a point in having some power gear for some chars now it seems pointless & the time/mats/gold are wasted now, yes I know no one is forced to follow the meta track but if you wish to compete you have no option, I for one just cant bring my self to spend all that time crafting, farming, etc again, maybe it was just bad timing or something but game as a whole is run of the mill, by that I mean vanilla & both xpacs, its the community that make this game stand out from the crowd, I will keep checking back weekly or so to see if world bosses get or something interesting gets added to pof maps. This is my point of view alone & I will enter into no arguments with any one that wished to disagree, you are entitled to agree or disagree as you see fit, but I choose not to reply to any comments. I love the gw2 community best community of any game I have played over the last 25 years, the pof for me was a letdown.
