Fatherbliss.4701 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 He asked about it on Twitter (which I saw through Jebros posts). Pretty darn cool. A bunch of us gave both the bad and the good points. Still a solid game especially if a person has never tried it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mindcircus.1506 Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I go to Metrica tonight just to complete the map on one of my toons.And there are no less than 8 people tagged up... pretending to be there to "help all the new people" they say this streamer is going to bring.But really just wanting to flash their shinies in front of a few thousand people on stream.This community at it's usual.... bottom feeding and not allowing this guy to really experience the game.

XenesisII.1540 Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share Posted August 3, 2020 He's mostly a fps shooter guy, but he's done stuff like sea of thieves, GTA rp, he's played mmo's like wow, and recently eso. He's usually 20-35k views, during valorant he was going 100-200k because of beta.It could be good exposure for gw2 considering gw2 usually gets like 1-2k views on twitch these days. But will anything come from that.... probably not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have the good people, have you had the bad, you have the attention seeking trolls. He's use to it as it happens in every game, at least he figured out switching zones to get away from them. But yeah people need to chill out and stop following him around trying to show off their costume and sparkles.Exposure for this game would be good, because it's known to have some of the best combat in mmo's, but the problem is the game is so hidden by terrible marketing and for some unknown reason has a bad perception by a lot of players especially those looking from the WoW side and don't give it a chance. A lot of it has to do with the no vertical gear progression, so immediately they dismiss it without understanding it. And then last night they were given an example of it as the two guys playing with him haven't played in 5 years yet knew they wouldn't need to upgrade gear on their level 80's, which felt like a good thing even to summit. There were those who didn't even think the game had an end game, when we have raids, fractals, strikes, world bosses/metas, living story, wvw, spvp. Yet at level 15 they went and did shadow behemoth show casing an early world boss, I wonder what they would think of shatterer 2.0He loved how combat felt as he spent most of the night just wanting to kill stuff playing around with weapons on the warrior, he went off track and explored the game as he did so, basically playing the game like it was meant to be played. He loved how fluid the animations were even underwater. He was BLOWN away by the musical instruments being played and watched videos of CMAJ music guild, how is that a bad thing giving props and showcasing the creative side of players in gw2? We saw spiderman, wonder woman, darth vader, bowser, ronald mcdonald, one punch man, all show up, players show casing their creativity with skins and dyes.Or we can just focus on the trolls I guess, which is what they want....Why am I not surprised this thread gets thrown into the dead community creations section from the wvw one, while the other one in general remains. Marketing, once again, failing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
