    Guild Wars 2

    I read that post and I'm really eager to see what they'll pull out. This game is definitely nice, they should just let us hunt for new skills, like in its predecessor and I'd be a happy player for a long time. The atmosphere in certain zones is so far unmatched and it can get quite challenging...

    I don't see how somebody levelling an alt fast can and should bother developers. Who cares? Everything in modern games has been gimped left and right in the name of fairness or some equally interesting bullshit. Like levelling is so important that twinking the fuck out of an alt makes devs puke...

    In instances you learn new skills (GW1 style?) and basic gear, in open dungeons you collect pretty dresses, maybe it could work, until most players will find every place worth a damn camped and move to play WoW2 or something. P.S.: Non instanced content could work (barely) 12 years ago, today...

    The NSA watches you poop.

    My government just fucked up royally something else, like deporting people (wife and daughter of a dissident) in Kazakhstan, peacefully ruled by some dictator (friend of our "beloved Mr B.) stirring up a shitstorm of ungodly proportion, which is masking another ton of bad shit they are doing on...

    Meh, depends on selection, likely necro first, but soon enough, one of each class to try them out. Altoholic here.

    My next birthday is the 40th, so I'm not your average console addicted, 30 minutes MC dungeon or whatever the fuck you want to call it, but seriously, you're advocating for a game that doesn't need to be played and isn't interactive in the least. I don't need to fill every global cooldown, but...

    I personally think GW2 has been a blessing for a few reasons: - No more 6 hotbars with 12 shittastic skills I have to keep around, 10 keys, all of them selectable pre-combat. - Reactive combat: it can be improved still, but the good is there. Has to be tuned and balanced here and there (some...

    Yes, but only if gear acquisition rate and levelling speed don't make it obsolete a couple hours after you complete it. I support soloing, if there is the option for it to be also challenging and not only mindnumbing: GW2 has some nice soloable content that can keep one on his toes all the time...

    /consider in EQ gave you the exact level: white if you were of the mob's level, yellow was +1 or +2 levels, red +3 and onward, on the other side, blue up to 3 levels lower and the later introduced light blue I think went to -6. Normal, veteran, elite, champion, boss, badass motherfucker, etc...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Most of the f2p games are utter shit until you sub, there are always enough missing QoL perks that you pretty much need (swtor is frankly ridicolous) that paying a sub is almost mandatory. WoW is a game I loved for years and still play from time to time, so subbing to it doesn't put a burden on...

    My only issue is that I don't like large shoulderpads, they make no sense, too often they clip inside models and look vehemently retarded in certain cases. Aside from that, as long as I can hide them with a switch, I don't care: I played EQ, WoW, EQ2, Rift, SWtoR, GW2 and a few others and I...

    Guild Wars 2

    Tried a quick race, it's fun, will run it again a couple times for sure. The new zone is really beatiful to look at, the artist at Anet are quite good. I also like what they did with achievements, have a bunch of chests waiting for me on a daily basis

    It has the "fans" label and fugly wow-like shoulders. I hope that's not real, for the shoulders, that is.

    You can roll more often, get faster items, so you can stop playing earlier? Sometimes my head hurts when I think about all the wrong things done by developers.

    For some reason I thought of Second Life. Whatever the shit that was, I remember loads of currency being made and/or spent in it. I didn't even look at it, too much furry sex for my taste (some pics on FoH were freaky).

    Necro takes a bit to bloom, I'd say at least 40 levels when you have enough trait points to make some funny stuff. Warrior is also a fun class to level, bit more straightforward to play, but that can be rewarding by itself (just smash faces) and offers excellent dps and support at cap.

    Guild Wars 2

    Necros are quite good, both power and condition builds. Many use the "fear+damage" condition spec, with 30 in Spite to pickup also Dhuumfire (burning) and extend their condition duration to +100% for juicy 8s burning, 2 or 3s fears (ticking high damage every 1s), long duration bleeds and...

    Guild Wars 2

    The nature of combat in dungeons is a bit more chaotic and the challenge is to make sense of the chaos (first run or two tops for experienced MMO players, a lifetime for some others), then the more coordinated people will do faster runs. There is the horrible tendency of mobs to forget players...

    Out of curiosity, since I hate work firewalls, which mobs drop the starter for the green fire quest warlock stuff? Those things are the reasons why I usually play wow every now and then, I'd hate to miss an interesting one.

    The issue is always the same, doesn't matter how you paint it: people will only do something that rewards them appropriately, most people, that is. Adventuring is not a reward in itself for the vast majority of the playerbase. BRD had some issues, of which I think the level spread (48-58 as I...

    I don't think battle rez is a bad thing, if there is some sort of coordination required to pull it off, for example, stun+root or kite while the rezer uses a 10s casting time spell (or epic clicky!). In general what I don't like much of modern games is the constant limits to prevent people...

    I enjoy the shit out of this game, but I'm a altoholic with limited time at disposal, so for me it's map discovery, jumping puzzle (which I love) and dungeons (both story and explorable). Gear: I don't care, but I stopped caring around PoP, about 10 years ago. I'll buy or craft some exotics and...

    Casting while moving is fine in my opinion, you can still have channeled spells with none or reduced movement.

    I could make a good one merging the skills from a dozen different games, probably D2 necros were quite fun, yes, but not the same type of game I had in mind.

    GW2 is interesting, yet lacking in some aspects, for example several of the non-weapon based skills were junk (or too few were good enough), lack of damage for some classes compared to others, survivability for some, condition vs power, etc. the list would get long fast enough. I think that the...

    UI mods were great in some cases and created more problems than they solved in others. Take for example Natur's Enemy Casting Bar, it didn't show just your opponent's cast bar, but all his cooldowns and whatnot. Decursive became pretty much a must have since 2005. There was during LK a mod that...

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    I quit because everyone else I knew did quit as well. There is no specific reason listed, except the "I was already playing this game" (meaning it was a wow clone down to the names of talents and skills in some cases). I even tried to look around for guilds, but eventually gave up and left and...

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    I played Rift exensively during the first few months, but then was abruptly bored with it. Most people I played with quitted, because of raids or other reasons (usually "too much wow-like") and certainly that had something to do with me getting bored quickly. I think Scott and the Rift team...
