I can't praise this expansion enough. As someone who plays games to relax, enjoy, immerse with the world...this expansion finally delivered what I've been expecting from GW2 since it released. JW offers a sense of exploration, danger, living and breathing world. I have great desire to explore every nook and crevice in the maps. The maps are insanely well done, they feel so alive and gorgeous! The tone of the maps is exactly where it should be -- it's dark in some parts which makes you take the threat/danger seriously. And...MUSIC. Music has never EVER been better. I loved GW2 OST, but you guys have surpassed yourselves. Hands down probably the best OST yet! On top of that, I want to say... I finally feel like I am playing an RPG. Playing this expansion feels like going through Witcher 3 and those amazing single player RPG games, but filled with other players in. I have no complaints, at all. 10/10 from me.

Heyho warriors! So this is purely for PvE not PvP. I'm trying to find a viable build for Fractals that uses a spear. Is that something that is viable at all? I really love the feel of the spear in open world. Finally I can keep my distance from foes and deal decent amount of damage to them. I feel like a proper hunter, ngl! So my question is...if anyone got to test it out in Fractals or if there's any build that supports the spear? Most of the traits only support underwater spear now :S

I am absolutely blown away. THIS is the Guild Wars I love! \o/ The music, the aesthetics, the vibe -- it feels amazing! Thank you ANet!!! I am right at the start, exploring the new map and just taking it real slow.

I don't care how bad it clips. Why isn't this hairstyle available to us in character creation? Why is it tied to a helmet? Why can't we have this as a separate option? I have so many questions. Neon Demon Mask Hairstyle Look at this magnificent mane. I am so sad this isn't given to us through makeover... Please Anet, give us hairstyles like this. ๐

NPC's and ambiance gripes.
Blur.3465 replied to Efaicia.3672's topic in Janthir Wilds Discussion (Archived)
100% agree. I wrote about this before. Immersion is a huge thing for me. NPC chatter as of late got unbearable. I'm tired of hearing the terrible sound from comm box, or random whispers, or NPCs screaming that meta is coming. Let me ENJOY the ambience of the zones without this. I remember AFKing in Echovald -- I turned up my volume so I could listen to the ambience and take a nap with that. BOOM, meta started and I jumped from bed after hearing loud chatter. Like kitten. Sure you can turn the NPC chat OFF, but that's really not the solution. ANet should just return to the roots of how the meta events were handled back in the past. No need for NPCs to constantly talk across the entire map. Chat bubbles are also pretty insane as they take half of your screen. Some people don't care about that, as mentioned -- they'll play some music and not really care about immersion; as can be seen in some of the comments here. Won't affect anyone negatively if NPC chatter is reduced to a minimum. I loved roaming core Tyria and then having a random NPC run to me asking for help -- it made me curious to know what kind of event awaited. Right now, I couldn't care less because everything feels and sounds chaotic. Too much noise, too many voices. Let my ears rest q.q I think SotO maps are the worst when it comes to immersion breaking. I'm not even visiting them anymore unless a daily demands it. -
I have been requesting long hairstyles for male humans since the dawn of time... We need LONG hair for our boys so much. Celtic, Viking-ish, Gothic, Metal-like? Heck yea. Back in the older times long hair in men represented pride, masculinity, power. Let my mesmer show-off his long ebony locks and dark looks! We already have two pieces of armor which give LONG hair. Look at the new Oni-inspired mask. It gives a massively long hairstyle. Then we have the Envoy outfit which also gives a wholesome hairstyle; but unfortunately NONE of these hairstyles are available to us in creation. Please Anet!

"Long Hair for Boys" Hello! As the title says, I find lack of proper long hairstyles for men to be troubling. ๐ We have these new outfits and helmets coming to store and having long hair tied to them, but no actual hairstyles like that. Metalheads exist, it would be nice to have hair which goes across half back. Think Marco Hietala and Robert Trujillo. And I'm not just talking about male humans, I'm looking at male Norn and I can't comprehend the fact that males lack those majestic manes whereas females get all the wonderful hairstyles. I want my Norn to look like a proper Viking with a long flowy mane that adds to his pride and power! At the same time, I'd love to make my male human look magnificent and metal-like with long ebony locks. Look at Infernal Envoy outfit -- that hairstyle is AMAZING. Please ANet? ๐ฅบ ๐

Oh Gosh, I agree. I got a new monitor with 3440x1440 resolution and when I upscaled my UI the mouse was HUGE and everything turned so ugly. Now I have to play with TINY interface and lose my eyes looking at in-game chat ๐ง

I agree with with everything here. I'd also love to see GW3 be more like GW1 in terms of atmosphere and story. Definitely less modern speech, jokes everywhere, and politics involved. Let's focus on telling a good story which has a meaning and depth. Would also love a vast open world to explore with a lot of secrets and with some amazing immersion. Less NPC talk across map etc.

No music change after leaving Thousand Seas
Blur.3465 replied to hibou.9150's topic in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website
It's an annoying issue that persists across most maps, sadly. When in Core Tyria the music just plays from that zone whether you change the zone or not -- and it will play until the end. Somehow they fixed that in EoD, but not the old world. -

I love your post โค๏ธ While I do love GW2 a lot, GW1 will always -always- hold a special place in my heart. When you grow up in a game like GW1 that kind of feeling will hardly ever go away. It was, quite literally, the best time of my life. I suppose I may need a break from GW2 in general, after crafting Vision I might just be on a burnout mode and the GW3 news just kind of enhanced that feeling to the point I just can't even login to do anything now. I'll just wait for new expansion news and hope that rekindles my desire to play and have fun! -

I do feel that OP and you're not the only one. While I'll casually play GW2 and get expansions, I feel I don't want to really sink too much of my time in it now and I'd rather focus on other games until there's a strong confirmation about things one way or another. I lost GW1 and it struck me heavily because GW2 didn't deliver what I was expecting. I can't go back to GW1 because game is just old and lacks updates and refreshment. I fear it's just going to be the same with GW2 unless GW3 really delivers. Still, just the very news of it being potentially in development has soured my desire to keep getting legendaries and I'd rather spare myself that now -- even if it takes 10 years for GW3 to develop, I somehow catch myself with 'what's the point?'. At the moment I'm just focusing on other games and investing in them until I hear more things about this and/or GW2 expansion (which I will buy and just casually play). -
Thank you QueenKeriti!

They have neither confirmed nor denied anything -- it is a very generic answer, as you said and at this point I don't think they want to confirm it given GW2 still has some expansions to roll with. "As an active game studio we are always doing internal exploratory work for possible future titles weโd want to create, however we have nothing to confirm right now" The quote stated their main focus is on more GW2 expansions, but it's either I can't read or understand well because I don't see anywhere they denied GW3 being in early stages of development. I'm either misreading or badly understanding it so correct me in case I'm wrong. Yup, my main and harshest criticism is towards GW2 storytelling and writing. I feel everything GW1 did right got butchered in GW2 ๐
