TheReflexCZ.5367 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 So, how amazing would it be, if you could actually PERMANENTLY quit a living story episode? Not just quit, just for it to appear next time you use the WP. All I am asking is a way to clean up my UI from ugly green indicators, without having to replay something I had already played with other character... just let us quit living story episodes for good!

Gop.8713 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 You can disable personal story in options, the only thing that remains is the map indicator iirc . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReflexCZ.5367 Posted May 30, 2019 Author Share Posted May 30, 2019 It's not just about the indicator though, it's the fact that something that clearly is in the game (you can actually quit it, but it pops up back again every time) doesn't work asi it should!

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 'Should' according to who? The Devs? I'm thinking it is working as intended.As noted above, you can disable PS in options.Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blocki.4931 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Oh I 100% agree. Only way to fix this is selecting and finishing one of the newer chapters to get rid of it forever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking it is working as intended.As noted above, you can disable PS in options.Good luck.Disabling it in options DOES NOT remove it from your UI. Which doesn't make sence. That way, the game is indirectly forcing you to play a content that you a) dont want to play, or b) had already played thus making it pointless to replay it.

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Sorry, my bad.Of course, 'forced' is not really appropriate, either.I think there are some apps that can remove that; but, of course, use at your own risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is that even though it looks like one list and it will reorganise itself as needed it's actually seperate UI elements designed to work together.

Danikat.8537 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Selecting Disable Personal Story in the Content Guide Menu removes it from the guide, meaning the little arrow will point you to events or map completion stuff instead. But the story then appears as a seperate prompt in the list along with events, achievements and whatever else, exactly the same way it appears if you turn the guide off completely.As far as I know the only way to get rid of the story prompt entirely is to complete it.

Already explained I already turned content guide off as well as quit the episode and it just pops up anyway.(TBH I'm just going to report it in-game, it's pretty clearly a bug imo.)

Mewcifer.5198 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 It is really frustrating that I constantly have the game telling me to go and do a living story season 2 chapter no matter how many times I have told it to quit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blood Red Arachnid.2493 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I'm in the same boat. Content Guide is switched to Off, and yet every time I zone or move I have a green star telling me to do the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultramex.1506 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Yes!! No matter how many times i quit the episode it just pop back up! It has been 6 years Anet!! At this point, the ability to quit episode permanently is a QoL update along with the ability to skip character dialogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drecien.4508 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I hate it too. It always reverts to season 2. The worst one that I'll never do again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
