Get off my lawn! π Me too. I rarely do any instanced content (but love the boss bash in the queen's pavilion). I simply cannot do jumping puzzles as there is no depth on these screens. It is a flat picture, and no way to judge supposed depths (for me). I enjoy what I can do and do not sweat the rest.

Guild Wars 3 or Guild Wars 2: A Realm Reborn?
Tukaram.8256 replied to FunKCX.4197's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I played GW and enjoyed it. A very different game, though. The towns were the only shared content, outside was instanced. You could team up, but it was much more like a single player game, with guilds and team play. When we were getting ready to move to GW2 I was excited for the move. Starting over was not a concern. GW2 had a cool Hall of Monuments that showed some of our achievements from GW, and got some special 'heritage' skins. What did upset was when they trashed the Hall of Monuments in the Eye of The North. I know it had been years since GW, but it was a nice connection, and they had no reason to trash it. Such is life. If eventually there is a GW3 I would have no problem moving over to it. I sure have no money tied up in this game. Just time, and time enjoyed, is not wasted. π -
I have never seen a study, but would be interested. Back in the early 2000s I helped run a meetup group for Ultima Online. I was surprised at how many of the players were older or disabled. But it makes sense - MMORPGs give you something to do, and a community of friends, all from the comfort of your home. A perfect setup for some. I was young and disabled then, I am old and disabled now ha ha π

Thereβs nothing to do in this game
Tukaram.8256 replied to lezbefriends.7516's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I am not interested in story at all, and I always have fun stuff to do in the game. I have 3 chapters left of EoD and IF I finish it (unlikely at this point) it would be the first story I finished since I started GW in 2006. I treat GW2 as an open world sandbox, and go explore & bash critters. I love it. I have never needed ANet to tell me what to do, I make my own fun. They gave us a huge world to explore. π- 18 replies

I do not really care about the boobs and butt, but I am glad the artwork was improved. The new ones look much better.

That does not look like censoring, more like fixing some old disjointed artwork. The new one is far superior.

I think a purely cosmetic inspection feature would be cool (for those that care about fashion - not me). Open someone's paper-doll and see what they are wearing, just cosmetically not stats. I understand the no reply bit... I do not play with my chat window open and would not know someone asked... π

No need to die, just be somewhere else. He was not in EoD and that was my favorite story of the franchise... might be a connection ha ha π

What if GW2 were to shut down?
Tukaram.8256 replied to Arnox.5128's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
If you had fun - was the time really wasted? An eventual shutdown is inevitable, but not the end of the world (well... it would be the end of this world ha ha). Initially I would just spend more time on my private Ultima Online server (it is more fun to code than to play). Eventually I would probably find another game, I guess. I have been playing MMORPGs since 1997 and kind of getting tired of the repetition. I would love to see something new, but even I have no idea what that would entail. π -
Still worth playing after the "balance" patch?
Tukaram.8256 replied to Shiina.4192's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
Put what to bed? I said I do not use the top gear either. Was I whining? Did I say I need it? No. I have mostly exotic gear, and simply do not pay attention to the gear in the builds posted. π -

Tukaram.8256 replied to Shiina.4192's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
Very much this. I look at some of the builds that get posted and it is all top end everything. I just use them as a skill guide because I know I will never have most of that gear. π That is true of reddit in general. I thought it was just a page for whiney know it all 14 year olds ha ha -

Tukaram.8256 replied to Shiina.4192's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I have not noticed a single bit of difference. That being said I solo, open world PvE, only. π -
I was replying more to his attitude than his comment. He is crying that emboldened is offensive to him (as if we care), and then gives dismissive answers to others. I was just returning his dismissive answer to him. π
-
So don't use emboldened mode? This isn't complicated. π
-
If you do not like - do not use it. Problem solved. You can thank me later. π

In GW2 that makes sense. We do not run the classic D&D types: warrior, mage, healer etc. Teams are made up of all kinds of professions. If one type outperformed another, by design, then it is the only one people would want on their team. All professions should have the potential to do similar amounts of damage, if you are good at that profession.

I am guessing that the people that do not like the boat controls must not use a trackball. I find the skiff very easy to maneuver and quite responsive. But I would not use a computer if I did not have a trackball. π

Skiff for most exploring around Cantha (only place I have played since EoD launch). I use the manta ray so little, I tend to forget I have it.

Should we delete our Warrior Character, and play as NPC?
Tukaram.8256 replied to Skill.6741's topic in Warrior
Why? Other than banners - which I never used - what changed? -
I have no basis to comment on the 95% bit... but I read through the patch notes and did not see anything that will negatively affect any of my gameplay. I never cared much for my warrior and rarely play him, but even when I did - I never used banners. I would never tie up a potential damage skill slot with a support skill as I play solo. Matter of fact this update may encourage me to dust off my warrior and see what he can do. π
