TFC, TF1, TF2, Fortress Forever, Half Life 1... Literally needing to plant some more trees because of the carbon dioxide I'm sighing because of how deliberately obtuse you're being to prove an invalid point to someone literally winning tournaments in Esports while you're defending the BIGGEST CASUAL GAME ON THE MARKET! Ok, that's twice it's on me and not you. You're an MMO player. I shouldn't have expected you to have heard of a tournament winner when you're literally spamming 1-5.

I'm really sorry. I genuinely forgot for a second I'm twice your age. Orange Box. I don't blame you. I forget sometimes that not all gamers are the same age and have the same experience so you think Guild Wars 2 is the GREATEST GAME EVER, weren't around for the launch of Steam, the beta of Guild Wars 1 and don't even know why Half Life 3 is a meme.

Five pages of "Nobody's forcing you to." I have neither the will nor the time to educate you all on why that argument is redundant and belittles genuine concern. No wonder they dumb this game down.

Did you use the same logic with Steam?

It wasn't just an answer. It was a walkthrough, a step by step guide and broken down to the simplest of terms. Ok, now I'm starting to see why this forum is flooded with confused reactions... I'm definitely in the wrong room for conversation.

Yeah, imagine going from that Miqo'te band to this game.

The combat in FF14 evolved and BECAME something great. It really was abysmal pre-Heavensward. In GW2, you're basically still locked to zergfest and berserker is king. I came back for the 10 year anniversary, tried again, I am legit bored fighting things in this game. 10 years and nothing has changed at all. Nothing evolved. I can see they TRIED to do things different with defiance bars and adding a tier of strategy. It didn't. But I guess it's really aiming at the casual market after all. Which, honestly, is fine, but they abandon huge amounts to pander purely to the casuals. After all, casuals are the most likely to spend extra money in their gem store. But the story doesn't even grasp me either. Two actors on a watercolour background talking back and forward about details in a speedrun of a story doesn't hold up. At least in 14, things evolved over YEARS and everything tied up nicely. It had real cutscenes, real characters and they weren't just a parody of themselves. GW1 was great. It should have kept the same formula. GW2 is just ticking boxes off a checklist and PRAYING it's finally over.

One of them was worth it. The other is Guild Wars 2.

I think toxic positivity is basically defending a company to the point of "They can do no wrong" and invalidating actual criticism because "Not MY ArenaNet!" Honestly, this thread alone is making me want to go back to FF14. Even the forums are better.

Just checked the average reviews. "Very positive." Also saw this information you might find valuable. "If you want to play with your old ArenaNet account, right click Guild Wars 2 in your library, go to Properties and add: -provider Portal to the launch options." So you can stop feeling like you've been personally attacked. The "review bombing" has obviously done nothing.

Sinister came forward with a valid point and you raise your shield to defend a company that really doesn't need defending. Also as someone who's been around since GW1's beta, reading your list and you saying ONLY Steam players said these things made me laugh. You must not remember a forum called GW Guru.

Well we pulled some teeth but got our answer about where the vendor is.

"Trade this to certain vendors when the Tenth Anniversary celebration begins for special rewards." You people need to start reading item descriptions.

You didn't double click it, did you? Could it even be used or opened? It's to be traded to a vendor who isn't in the game yet.

Game updating in 3 hours. We'll see then.

Well I asked you the question twice and you don't have an answer. We can move on now.

So answer the question instead of deflecting and making snide edits. Why is it stupid? You're like a politician. You're speaking but you're saying nothing.

Why's it stupid? If you've been playing Grind Wars 2 for 10 years and can't figure out how to get a legendary, you're doing it wrong. I honestly see you throwing back gifts at your parents because it's the wrong colour.

It's not even good bait. Why are you all biting?

It really just sounds like Monk from FF14, especially with storing chi. If that's the game you're using as reference, this game will ruin it. It will never live up to your expectations.

261 upvotes over 8 months is UNDERwhelming for a 10 year old game.

Just replying here so I can keep tabs on it for next week when people say "The community was nice until Steam players joined."

PEBCAK.

1000 hours, 3645 days. Absent for 5 years. Giving it another try but not expecting much.

It's true. You should just play single player. This is basically one of those PlayStation Home games where you all dress up and talk in capital cities. Sometimes fighting happens.
