>refunded that shitty game back in 2012

80 Necro, Ele, Mes, War, Thief

4k hours, 5 legendaries

Bored of S3 (or mainly just the downtime, really) and waiting for expansion 2 announcement

the game has become free to play

I have all classes at 80, but primarily play Rev, Necro and Thief. Haven't been all that active lately. I'm just waiting inbetween LW releases, which I find to be very captivating, surprisingly. Hype f or expansion.

...

I didn't know you could refund it

I think I got several lvl 20 characters and one lvl 40
Which is the reason why I don't play it anymore

holy shit,what the fuck is going on that general ? nobody is talking about gw2

it's the way /vg/ is, I don't go there and in return I hope people don't come here

holy shitfucking kek, what the fuck

all characters on 80, mainly play guardian 2/3 legos (bolt and made sunrise and twilight and merged them)
waiting for next expansion, only log now to do story and location achievement

some autist got banned and has been using a spambot for revenge
not that they ever talked about the game anyway, just their shitty vg guild drama
so really nothing changed

>80 all characters
>Two legendaries (bolt and raven staff)
>Tons of in game items I can sell for gold but I don't really need the money right now
>full ascended on a few characters
>14k cheevos

I login for the daily chest and that's about it. I haven't played the last two living story updates. I'm just waiting for the next expansion

>people still play GW2 eventhough gear doesn't matter, softcaps on stat exist and down- and upscaling being a thing, where you get the living shit slapped out of your 5000 hour character by two level 10's in PvP because individual skill and gear doesn't matter

Are you guys some sort of masochists and special snowflakes who like their entire time wasted on skin progression?

>people are so bad at games they want a handicap just for spending more time in it
uninstall windows and get an iphone

>time wasted
>living shit slapped by 2 10
pvp is either instanced or in wvw, upscaling is shit in this game to the point where full geared 80 with good build can shit on upscaled retards in wvw like 1 vs 4
I don't see how someone waste time if the like it and how is gearmill mmo any better than skin ones

GW2 was the last good MMO.

>was
wait for the next expansion

that would imply that GW2 was good, and I doubt you're implying that

more like "free to try with several serious limitations including trading the most crucial items"

What's so good about the next expansion?

Mounts

Still no Cantha.

>Mounts
So Anet finally gave in and decided to suck the cock of their fanboys?
Glad I quit over a year ago.

Bullshit as far as I know there's no info on the next expansion at all

More maps, mounts, new elite spec for each class, and who knows what else

i stopped playing because an NPC i had grown really attached to died in a story mission and i couldnt go on

we all miss Trahearne

The limitations are not even bad. They are mostly there to protect people with bought accounts from scammers and such.

I expected to see a lot of outdated 2012 memes in this topic and was not disappointed. The game is vastly improved now and Living World season 3 has been fantastic. From the leaks the next expansion is looking impressive as well.

I unironically do miss Trahearne after dealing with Taimi.

i never understood why they tried to say levels don't matter, then made 80 of them. i suppose in a roundabout way they were right; i grinded 80 stupid fucking pointless levels for no reason and then stopped playing. great design approach.

isn't it entirely pointless if you don't buy the expac? especially if you already played the base game years ago, you are just hard capped to doing that old shit again?

trahearne dies?
i was talking about that char

>go to download this game again because I remember the graphics being kinda amazing and have a better GPU now

>"your account has been banned for activity relating to trading items IRL. this action is permenant"

And I payed full price when it came out

Wow

did you really real world trading ?

so is this game worth spending 30 gb ?

no, im surprised no one have mentioned sjw in this thread yet

what you mean with sjw ?

like characters on the street that randomly tells you they are trans
or forcing a pair of lesbians into your group of adventurers who acts like kids and flirts everywhere
or having a female midget who lost her robot, getting shunned at by all the other midgets as she doesn't have her robot to help her, but she is still able bodied and that blows everyones mind as she's a strong independent woman with no need for help

They were going to put mounts in Guild Wars Utopia.

Yes but don't ask that here, people have an irrationnal hate for GW2. And they're really butthurt since the game that was supposed to be dead within a year of its release is still there and going strong 5 years later with a second expansion announced.

>irrational hate
It's very rational thank you

Next expac in October

Level 80 in all, got around 6-7 legendary weapons.
I want to get into raiding more but I main Revenant and it is a fucking trash class.

so what ? where's the problem aside from these few things ?

that's just the start user, just search for "gw2 sjw" or something like that on the internets and you will find lots of other things

post characters

but the question still remains the same,why are you letting that a bunch of quests/characters that are sjw/trasgeneder ruin your game ? you only have to complete those quests once

it's not like that playing it makes you indirectly support the sjw

Fuck this game, where is my actual sequel to guild wars?

as of right now they are working on an expansion

you could try that

What's the point of mounts if you can fast travel anywhere anyways?

that's the same thing i was asking

are they gonna make them as cosmetics to get more money ?

They're going to serve the same point as HoT masteries, they have abilities that bypass metroidvania bullshit roadblocks in maps.

Also the new maps are really big, with very few waypoints, so they're going to be mandatory if you want to get anywhere within a reasonable timeframe.

But yeah, for anet the main reason is probably cosmetics.

holy shit this is hilarious

They're not even a problem, some people just make up reasons to shit on some games.

The midget is not able-bodied, she limps and can't do anything without her robot and even with it we had to save her several times, she's just very intelligent and pretentious like a lot of people from her race.

The trans NPC stands somewhere in Lion's Arch and I've never even seen him, you'd need to talk to random NPCs in the middle of nowhere or look for him specifically, it's not in your face, I'd call that marketing instead of SJW, him being there makes some people happy, the others don't see it.

The pair of lesbians is annoying but they would still be annoying even if they weren't lesbians, they're just badly written characters.

If you look at the differences between the female and male versions of many armors I can assure you "SJW" is not the first thing that'll come to your mind.

same shit happened to me some chinks took my account and used it to sell gold

I honestly hate the way the game has been going since HoT
Those multi-layered maps are shit as all hell to navigate into and trying to read a fucking map of the area has become unnecessarily tedious
I hoped it would be a jungle-only thing but seeing as they've done it again with the LS makes me completely lose interest for the upcoming expansion

well maybe you could have secured your account with your phone

they also give you a dragon companion if you secure it now

Condi Rev with Mallyx/Jalis is pretty good now and accepted into Raid Groups.

but i still don't understand how this will ruin your gameplay

you should care about those things only if you are really into the story

>GW2
>not GW1

you have shit taste m8

i dont think the double authentication was a thing back in 2012 but i have it on my new one

There will be less waypoints for sure, they've been getting us used to that fact with the new living world maps. Also from the leaks the expansion maps look huge.

>let's have a guild wars 2 thread

No.

This is a stupid decision. I can guarantee there will be a large uproar about the lack of waypoints, and having to travel everywhere.

You can't just suddenly remove a core qol feature like that without a shit load of backlash. It's like when people wanted the new zones in WoW to not have flying, so blizzard did that, and everyone shit on them.

Anet will probably end up throwing waypoints in at a later date.

Who the fuck thought making Balthazar suddenly appear without foreshadowing and be a big bad was a good idea?
As if this game didn't shit on the original's lore enough with the whole playable races thing.

GW1 died for this?

The maps they've added since HoT are huge and have very few waypoints. They might keep going in that direction with the Elona maps

That was actually pretty badass and a lot more interesting than "Le dragons". It was long suspected anyway since from the beginning "Lazarus" was using Fire attacks.

Didn't you hear?
MMOs are now /vg/ exclusive

I had the same thing happen back when I wanted to try GW2 again close to the expansion. My account got stripped of all items and one of my lvl 80s was decked in full farming gear.

Put in a support ticket and got my account back but they refused to roll back the items. And that's why I will never play GW2 again.

And before you start meme'ing about account security, my password was 15 characters of randomized garbage and unique to my GW2 account. They also did not offer 2FA back then. It's the first game I've ever had my account jacked.

If you ask me, their database got hacked at some point.

They already have evil gods in this game like Dhuum and Menzies. Why not use them?

then how about making the dragons actually interesting instead of shifting the focus on another villain that has no place in the story?

They destroyed the charme about the human gods. We knew they were living entities but the aura of mystery about them is all gone now.

Balthazar is evil now?

I don't even know man. GW2's lore is all kinds of fucked so I guess it makes sense they fuck everything else. Pretty fucking uninspired to just throw in Balthazar though.

>But yeah, for anet the main reason is probably cosmetics.

The leaked mounts look pretty great, but I cringe when I think of the skins they'll add to the gemstore. I'm fully expecting sparkly ponies and other shitty meme skins.

No one knows yet. It literally just started. He's a dick but it was know that Balthazar was always a dick.

he's pretty clearly a villain. He wanted to absorb the dragons' power and didn't give a shit about Tyria and the humans he supposedly protected.

I mean, come on.

The lesbians haven't even been obnoxious since living story season 1. If I hadn't seen the cutscene on youtube where they make out after reading people bitching about them on Sup Forums, I would have assumed they just considered themselves close like sisters. Up until the latest episode anyway, but even then it's just "hey we're partners, stop being a fag and leaving me out of major decisions."

Fresh Lv 80 Engie and just started trying to do full ascended with Fractals
>tfw SW and HoT

So far no one's bitched about the latest maps. Bitterfrost Frontier has a grand total of two waypoints, and the only thing people complained about was all the mobs that chill you from 100 feet away.

Too early to tell really. He clearly lost his power for some reason and was obsessed with regaining it. Also to a creature like that Tyria would be nothing.

I was enjoying Lazarus being the potential main villain of the next expansion. His model was cool as fuck, all the mursaat shit they've been adding to the game for the last year was fleshing out his backstory, and mursaat were always a cool part of of GW1.

Then out of nowhere this fag shows up, and the artists didn't even have the courtesy of making him look menacing like the Balthazar gemstore outfit you can buy. He just looks like some old man in a bad cosplay outfit and his motivations are just "I want muh power back!"

Funny, I must be the only one thinking vertical multi-layered maps were one of the very few things they did right lately. To each their own, I guess.

>there are people out there who don't think Tangled Depths is the best map in the game

Core Tyria maps are bland ass. If you think flying around canyons or spelunking through a cavernous sinkhole isn't the tightest shit then you can get the fuck out of my ass. I'm surprised you can even find your way home at night.

whats a good class i can stick with, solo all content and get into end game with?

necro and thief look fun, elementalist too i guess. these any good?

necro and hunter are both good for solo because of pet

Elementalist is the best out of those three you named. Absolute top tier DPS and sustain, but requires some skill to properly use.

Necro/reaper is 10/10 at open world PvE. You're damn near unkillable and can solo group events in seconds. I hear it's terrible in raids and fractals, though, but I don't do that shit so I can't confirm.

>but requires some skill to properly use

That's the problem with elementalist. You have to work twice as hard to do the same damage as everyone else and you immediately die if an enemy sneezes within 100 feet of you.

I have three level 80s from like 3 years ago i never got heart of thorns though

how do i pve

you don't

You missed the boat to farm Bloodstone Fen for mastery experience. You're fucked.

...

>i grinded 80 stupid fucking pointless levels for no reason

Welcome to MMOs

If gw2 had mabinogi's lifeskills, It'd be set

Fuck this shit, i kinda want to go back because i love my norn big titted guardian and my cute female human warrior but i hate this jungle shit, iirc acquiring gold was a pain and only if you got a good group to farm dungeons you could get enough gold to do all the shit you wanna do. The music and the areas/places are fucking nice though, i kinda miss them.

Not anymore with the latest Condition Elementalist build. It is braindead.

That's the same type of botspam that ruined infinity chan's /furry/

I refunded it 3 months after it came out. Best thing that came from GW2 was that refund.

F

Childhood is thinking Tybalt is good, Adulthood is recognizing Forgal was the Patrician's choice.
