I wish the homestead crafting mastery either didn't exist, or was required (not unlocked and required) by this story chapter. Or set traditional kodan beds to level 0. Makes so much more sense.

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Shadow_Assassin_Outfit !!! Also, I would like to ask for kit skins. Bladesworn gunblade variants would be nice, or a gunblade sword skin that can be sheathed.

While I found the first 2 chapters interesting, I wish this game had a skip button. I don't want to replay an exposition dump.

Items you invested into the guild hall is a gold sink. For the sake of the economy, I suggest the cost should stay sunk.

Soto was so bad that I had to take a break to re-evaluate why I play the game. I REALLY hope JW is good, but it's a hard sell to pre order when the last expansion actively made me not want to play the game.

I believe in the 100m rule. <100m from water, they're togs. >100m from water, they're undies.

I don't think this is true. I think Anet was onto something with LWS5 - a political situation that couldn't be solved via a boss fight, the pact or an elder dragon. Until Bangar respecc'ed and lost all of his charisma and leadership skill, because all the resources were funneled into EoD *shrugs*

I have a lot of concerns about the game, but my characters polygon limit isn't one of them. My character looks fine.

I think this is only true so long as Anet holds true to their philosophy of "all classes shall be homogonous and provide everything other classes can". How DPS/Buffs are applied, either through mobility or mechanics, can affect how you enjoy the class. For example, Bladesworn's Dragon Trigger just feels good because big number is big - while other people might not enjoy it because it roots you in place. I vastly lost interest in base warrior/berserker when they messed with the F1 Greatsword animation (which was probably a pvp buff maybe?).

Depends on how you look at it. If Tengu were just reskinned Charr or Dwarves were mini Norn, I think the whole idea is doomed to failure. But, people said the same about Mounts pre-PoF, and they turned out to be my favorite implementation of mounts in a MMO (barring the griffin in WoW, I love being able to just point in a direction and fly across the different biomes on the map, but that's a bit off topic). I'm open to the idea that Tengu could bring something new to this game, even if I'm not entirely convinced that people who advocate for new races know what they want.

If Todd Howard has taught me anything, you can generate hype over a 12 year old game. Hell, you can even turn a 7 year old game into one of the top 10 selling games of 2024 (in a number of countries) with a prime tv show. In grounded reality, even GW2 will receive player spikes when expansions are released (when we expect new classes/especs/weapons to fulfil new class fantasies).

You know what would upset me more than Gw3? Another Maple Story 2 situation where the game was fun, but after a few weeks/months everyone just returned to Maple Story and the sequel was shut down.

I'm more interested in how we have a secret illuminati faction dedicated to barring out outside forces from the mists, yet they seem to do nothing to stop Asura from poking holes into it. Why is research into this topic by unlearned individuals even allowed at all?

Discourse aside, I do genuinely miss the "Charming/Dignity/Intimidating/Neutral" options. They don't even need to be game changing either - the illusion of choice, and the ability to recall what was chosen makes for a great experience. I think well written text trees could far outstrip the current in-game styles of "stand around in this restricted area while NPC's talk your ear off".

If I had a neigh immortal body and perfect metabolism, I'd probably be calling out for something naughtier, like energy drinks. Heck, I even do it with my mortal one. But, yeah. Keeping a bottle of water on hand is always a good idea.
