This most likely won't happen but can you bring back the Snowflake Gobbler to gem store until at least new year? It makes no sense that it's gone before 2022 even started. Gem discount sale ending isn't the problem, but rather the gobbler not being sold at all anymore is.

There's a simple solution. /gg, kick and restart.

Legendary items are for convenience of stat swapping. Owning it means that you already dedicated too much time to it for convenience. Making people grind gold for even more convenience is a stupid design. Legendary items shouldn't RESET stats each time they're unequipped. It's not that hard to do. People that prefer buying equipment templates can still buy them, they lose nothing if this is implemented.

Because each one costs 500 gems per character. It shouldn't be that hard for legendary weapons to not reset their stats each time they're unequipped. This is either a design mistake and neglection, or intentional greedy move to make people spend money on build templates.

1. Being hyped is illogical and a recipe for disappointment.

I'll stop playing the game and play something else myself if I don't like expansion, and I didn't like almost anything from what they revealed so I will probably don't even buy it unless there's an interesting elite specialization that gets revealed later, and only buy it when it goes on sale months after release. If expansion turns out bad, the best form of criticism would be not buying it at all and playing other game which will directly hurt Arenanet's revenue, instead of sticking with the game, buying expansion you hate but yelling at them on forums. As long as they get your money they don't care if you have fun or not. That's the reality. What I said is, it's all pointless. I made a few suggestions relatively recently but I'm sure now they won't even bother to look at them. If you want to make suggestions you're free to do so but it's pointless to get emotional over a game. Make cold judgements and drop cold suggestions without raging if that's what you want to do, but check other player suggestions made years ago, and requests to fix parts of game that are bugged, like being actually able to quit living world episode without restarting it each time you change map instance. They didn't fix it. There are many things that are neglected because they don't generate profit. That's how this company operates. Unfortunate but reality is reality.

You can dislike it based on what they have shown, for example if you don't care about fishing or dislike characters they plan to stick with you in EoD storyline. For example I like fishing idea but dislike story characters because I already know how they behaved in past storylines which made me mute dialogues and ignore unskippable cutscenes as they annoyed me, but I don't go around raging about it because even if I did they won't listen. Just look at how things turned out compared to what players were asking for. They only listen to influential players with large following backing them up, that's the reality, so it's better spend time doing something else that won't grind my nerves. It's not that hard to do. Not being fully released is exactly why you shouldn't pre-order it either. Wait and see how it turns out. Arenanet is profit-oriented ccompany owned by larger profit-oriented company. They will only do whatever gets them more new players or media attention to sell their game better.

They don't really listen to community feedback, if they did, they would've taken care of pvp bot problem long time ago (check how many people complain in pvp subforum about it). They'll keep adding things they like and removing things they dislike, and ignoring things they don't care about at all. They only listen if there's a big group of players or some famous streamer with big group of players rallied behind talking about something. Yes, bouncing between games is exactly how you should play games. Playing one game all the time will burn you out anyways. Remember that Arenanet is a company and is owned by NCsoft which is also a company. They do things for profit. Unless there's big chunk of players that want something implemented signing a petition or something led by Arenanet partner, they won't care.

There are many posts complaining about EoD. Being hyped makes no sense, but being this negative makes no sense either. It might be bad, it might be good. There's only one way to find out: Wait for its full release. It's few months away anyways. I agree that pricing isn't really good, but that's how pre-orders and first time releases are usually priced. Wait for a few months or a year, it will surely go on sale and buy it when it does. Complaining just wastes your time and nerve, it's not worth it. If the EoD sucks, just don't buy it and play another game. That's what I'm going to do if that's how it turns out. It's not like GW2 is the only game in existence.

None for now. Wait for release, then if I like the expansion wait for the sale and buy it once price drops to 10 or 15 bucks.

Just wait for the sale. Buying expansion right on release or pre-ordering it isn't a good idea either even if it was cheap. You might not like it so it's best to see other players play it first and check feedback, then wait for a few months for it to go on sale and buy it.

I live in a low income country so I have a personal policy of never paying full price for any game or expansion. $30 seems like a good deal for people who live in for example America, where you can earn that much after flipping burgers for 3 hours, but I'll buy it once it goes on sale below $20 eventually few months after release, somewhere between $10-15. I bought HoT and PoF for 25$ together, so I'm not willing to pay more than that for a single expansion, low income aside.

And this is why it's best to fix button that lets us quit the story episode. How can it be so difficult? The button clearly exists, and it's bugged. It's not like they have to add something out of thin air. They add dozens of new skins and gemstore items each month. It's simple, they neglected it because not enough people complained and it's not profitable to fix something like that, as players don't quit over it because it only affects spare characters that don't complete story. Problem is that while redoing LWS3/4 on all characters is profitable because they give good rewards, LWS2 is dragged out and not worth doing after getting all the related achievements to it, which can be done in 2-3 runs at most. It's very annoying, every time you change map instance with character that didn't complete story, it restarts even if you quit it. I wish I could un-own the LWS2. Wouldn't even have bothered with new legendary amulet and deleted LWS2 mails if I knew there was a bug like this.

You like the story? OK. I don't, many others don't either. It's not that hard to fix the "quit episode" thing on Anet's end and stop it from resuming every time we change map instance or relog. It won't prevent you from playing it again.

That's unfortunate. Looks like it was neglected. They really need to fix this, LWS2 has no skippable dialogues, has very bad rewards making it not worth doing more than once and meme-tier story that's just cringe-inducing waste of time.

On my alt characters where I haven't completed LWS2, every time I log in the story resumes. If I quit it, it resumes after changing map or relogging. This needs to be fixed as soon as possible, I've checked old posts and it seems to be a problem for at least 3 years.

Add a toggle that allows us to sort items from bottom to top in our inventories. For example "stack all" will leave top slots empty and stack items on bottom first instead of doing the reverse.

Before anyone says "they can't know when vendor is added", that's wrong. They know when it will be added. They said the reason it won't be added on armory release is because it'd be "unfair" to people who already upgraded slumbering trinkets. So they definitely know when they think it will be "fair" to add the vendor, even though this kind of logic makes no sense whatsoever. It's not like people who upgraded the slumbering trinkets would be losing something. Someone else getting item easier than you doesn't mean you lost something, and better option would've been refunding the costs of upgrade to players who own finalized Conflux and Transcendence instead of intentionally delaying vendor.

Can confirm. Started for legendary amulet and backpiece. Got backpiece, heard PvE amulet was being added, kept playing pvp regardless.

There's a big lack of communication and information from developer side regarding this update. There are many questions left unanswered that'd stay unanswered even after release of the armory tomorrow. 1. When will the vendor for slumbering tickets be added? This is a very important piece of information that has to be answered right before release of armory. 2. What will happen to emblems used to upgrade slumbering trinkets to final versions? 3. When will the option to hide animations of PVE legendary trinkets be added? 4. Are there plans for legendary stat-selectable infusions? How about legendary aquabreather? 5. Will there be an option to unlock PvE legendary armor skins without having to unlock armor itself? Because having two sets of same weight class legendary armor will be completely useless after armory is released. People have been asking for option to hide animations since the day trinkets were released. Slumbering trinket owners will be screwed if the vendor doesn't get added this month, and we have stacks of WvW and PvP emblems that have no practical use.

Thanks for quoting this, I missed it while reading and many people probably did as well.

Then why are there several French and German servers? That's very weird considering there's Spanish server on EU. I don't really understand Anet's logic in this.

There are already several French and German servers, as well as a Spanish one. There are many players who prefer coordinating in Russian language, including both native Russian and other players from neighboring countries. It'd be great if there was a RU server for WvW as well (and hopefully come with free transfer ticket). I get that there's no Russian language localization for game, but WvW server should be the first step and it could attract more players that speak the language to the game too.

Deadeye because nothing beats being a sniper straight out of MMOFPS in a fantasy MMORGP.

What's even worse is that the new PvE legendary amulet requires you to play joke of a story full of unskippable dialogues called living world with annoying "ally" characters that I want to kill more than the presumed "villains" and dragons.
