Ok, ignoring all thenegative tone in your post, there's a couple of things potentially wrong with your post: The term "Guild Wars" has actually nothing to do with modern-day guilds fighting each other. It's based in lore, from the really old time when the major guilds were warring with each other. If "nobody" cared for the dragon story, and WvW was the real bread winner, I'm absolutely sure that Anet would put their focus to it. Seeing as they don't, maybe the PvE story is what a lot of people actually cares for? Edited October 6, 2021 by Zohane.7208 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zentao.6314 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) I'm pretty sure that the vast majority of players like PvE more than WvW. PvE is way more fun to play, a lot of maps, a lot of things to collect, a lot of things to kill, etc. Let ANet decide what they focus on. They have data for what the players do when they play.

Gehenna.3625 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Ahh wvw is dead...that explains why there are queues on all the maps every evening. 8 2 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawdler.8521 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 The constant of WvW is people claiming its dead when there are no queues because they cant find fights and its dead when there is 50+ queues on every border because they cant get in and fight. Literally 9 years of the same claim every year. Comforting in a way, I guess. 2 2 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is BS. WvW is dead all day long, we get '' low action '' at prime time only for 2 hours (low iq fights) . 3 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenesis.6389 Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 Wasn't any queues last night on the server I'm on, in fact we barely had one zerg that had to cover two maps with, while other server had two map queue blobs... cause halloween I'd guess, everyone went to get their candy fix... JQ confirmed pve server btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll help. https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/The_Guild_Wars And by "really old time" the Guild Wars ended about 260 years ago from GW2's current time. The first game, though named Guild Wars, actually started when the Guild Wars ended. Edited October 6, 2021 by Gibson.4036 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, after you take into account server links and only on reset & weekends...before that each server was on its own and we had twice as many tiers...definitely not dead, but not as alive as in the past. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gloflop.3510 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Guild Wars 2 and consequently also WvW is suffering from a decline in the overall population due to a recent increase in the competition on the MMO-market. This decline in the population is hitting some servers more than others. Is WvW now dead? In essence, one can reduce the number of matchups and like this increase the number of server combinations. This way the population in each matchup would remain constant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zohane.7208 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Well, it seems anyone not agreeing with OP is a casual and should go back to PvE. Funny way OP has to address the perceived WvW problem, asking people to get out of there... 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is kind of an odd assumption, given that kids are more likely to have the free time to not be “casuals” unlike adults who play as part of a life that includes jobs and families. Unless the OP assumes the bulk of the hardcore are retired folk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't give a monkey's about the Living Story, but I do recognise that the people who play for just three hours every time there's a new episode bring significant income to the company. I suggest that you do the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the original focus of guild wars 1, a pvp game The story was added afterwards. The reason wvw is "dead" is the same reason spvp and all forms of pvp in gw1 are "dead". Anet stopped development on them to focus on pvers aka open world. Why? Because new people equals micro transactions. Why do you think every other week is gemstore tuesday? Why do you think gemstore skins keep getting fancier to the point of putting legendaries to shame? Wvw died around people but they still happily grinding the karma train rofl. Greatest pvp game mode ever... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
