Thank you for your kind response. I am glad you can relate, and understand that what I am saying is about genuine customer experience and quite normal customer expectations. In any case, the gems arrived today, 3 days after. All good, on with playing.

This would actually be useful information:: “If you would rather have instant Gem delivery, always purchase Gems at full price, rather than at the 50% discount offered in the Ultimate Edition”. I don’t distinguish between gems bought normally, and gems bought through an expansion. Had I known such difference, I would have had the info and perhaps made a different decision.

That's helpful, thank you.

I know. But I honestly read that as sort of a formal disclaimer, in the rare exception something goes wrong. Like I said, I bought gems before and they were delivered instantly. It's what I expect. "May take up to" leaves a lot of room. Many companies use that phrasing. They are not in the wrong, I just think they can communicate better if they want to. There's quite a few topics about this from frustrated customers, and it can be easily avoided with a clear message. I've read that had I bought the gems separately, it would have been different. That's annoying. Be clear about that.

Some customer feedback here. I bought the Ultimate Edition specifically because I wanted to buy stuff from the store. Instead of happy anticipation I got annoyance and anxiety of not knowing when the gems will arrive and if the items I want to buy will still be in the shop. Not the experience I want to have when I spend 80 bucks on the Ultimate edition. Please communicate in a straightforward way that gems bought with the Ultimate Edition will only arrive after 3 days. I have bought gems before and they were delivered instantly. That is my expectation, it’s a digital product. I know there’s a disclaimer that says “up to 72 hours” but it is a) easily overlooked and b) misleading because it is not actually 0-72 hours - it is more like 72 hours period (this is what seems to be the case for many, as I googled the topic). I do understand the reason to protect against fraud, but then please communicate clearly and straightforward so I can make an informed decision.

I agree with the OP to an extent. I don't have trouble mining resources, but I would love to explore in a more relaxing fashion. In LOTRO after 10 levels difference mobs stopped aggro-ing you. I loved walking around and taking in the scenery then. This is not possible with gw2's level scaling, but I'd love anet to add a mastery track especially for this. Call it desert mastery and at least "neutral" mobs, like sand sharks, lions, etc stop bothering you.

Kaineng is so disappointing, not even close to the loading screen art that shows how it should have been: a bustling metropolis. Looking at those liveless docks, so sad. No ships moving, no trade, nothing. Rather they made the city a third as big but as lively as Amnoon.

The way you told this story - that was pretty dang good. It starts off all festive and kind of trivial, and then in a short amount of time you actually manage to set the stage in an interesting and rather subtle way. I thought the ending was really good, and it offset the whole prologue into something epic indeed.And the legion concert: wow. Such a blast.Looking forward to episode 1.

Highly enjoyable maps, sights, ingame dialoguemounts: gameplay & feelstory: scope & cinematics, lore Moderately enjoyable story: plot, flat evil villain Balthazarmasteries: could have been more inspiredNeutral bounties: not really interestingNo fun constant aggro from trash mobs prevents you from enjoying the maps fully (a non-aggro mastery maybe?) story: chaining of difficult boss fights & the lenght of storysteps make it less ideal for casual play rewards: very lackluster compared to HoTMissed opportunity mounts: how you acquire and train them could have been tied in to a story that leads you to bond with your mount(Exactly 100 words :))
