Truly a game with really great devs. There's the item duping, the PvP win trading, the years they were letting people recover accounts with super basic info (e.g., "tell us the name of a character to prove it's you"), and loads of accounts ended up compromised because the guy who spent years warning them was ignored. Then we've had 6+ years of bots plaguing maps.

It's beyond a joke. There must be like 6 devs left, considering the drip fed stuff they've been up to the past couple of years.

Don't forget about them ignoring bugs for years. W7 Qadim's carpet visual effect disappears too fast, making the aoe invisible

Dude it's the same everywhere, don't you get it? Everywhere! There is no hope. People remain people. That's just how it is. Don't get fooled by ignorance.

Oh yeah, the "spaghetti code" bugs.
W5 Desmina wall is invisible to at least 3 guys every time, but still hasn't been addressed.
Then we've got the swaths of abandoned aspects of the game, the constant lies (alliances are just around the corner! for 8 years, followed by an abrupt "oh yeah, not doing that any more").
Shameful.

that one i think is related to the first wall not being rendered until it spawns so it ♥♥♥♥♥ anyone who doesnt have a good ssd and decent cpu. i stopped having issue with it once i upgraded my pc, nonetheless, its still something that shouldnt be there in the first place.

That’s why you just play it in a very casual single player way. I’m playing this with all chats disabled (including say), just don’t care what other people do, stay away from PvP and farm stuff yourself casually.

It’s an ok pseudo single player game but once you start to treat it like your traditional WoW-esque MMO you’ll see that there’s BS everywhere and that the company is totally incompetent and basically just trying to get a few gem purchases out of a noob before he realizes the game as an ‘MMO’ is hot garbage.

most likely unless they decide to go back on it.

I thought this individual was "permanently" banned. If the ban was lifted, what's the point of calling it a "permanent" ban?

You would have to get a big gaming site or streamer to report about it. Sadly this game is so insignificant that no one would waste an article on it and there’s also no big, credible streamer like Asmongold for WoW, because again, no one really cares about GW.

Most of the guys on YT who do GW2 content are assets owned and fed by Arena net in a desperate bid.

The official forum is useless because any negativity towards the game, even if warranted, is sniped down instantly by their in-house trolls called forum moderator.

In the end the games saving grace is that it doesn’t have a sub, or it likely would’ve been dead by now, yeah you spent money on expacs but you got what you paid for (some hours of personal story) can’t really complain about that, just never buy gems because that will be the start of a toxic relationship.

Hey i only mention asmongold when its time to get juice awards, its profitable i can tell lol but asmongold just likes parroting what other people say, he mostly gives an opinion about other people's opinions and be like "yeah, yup, mhmmm i agree, i disagree, yeah yeah mhmm" in every video. He's good at drama reaction vids and creating bait so no surprise when ppl use him as bait for reactions, been there done that lol.

Also this is from Feb 6th i think???

I don't get this rhetoric, GW2 has a couple 100k players on a mega server system. Back in the day we played vanilla WoW with 1.5-3k players on closed-off servers and we didn't think of that game to be 'dead'. Hell, I played underdog late 90s/early 2000s MMOs with 150 people max online at a time and it was fun. The total player count is absolutely meaningless for you as a consumer, as long as it's not zero, or it reaching a point where the player count requirement for content is continuously not satisfied.

But largely those parrots keep parroting it because: no streamer poster boy like Asmongold for WoW, being able to buy gold directly through diamond exchange and calling the game P2W trash, where they fail to see that people would buy gold regardless, all it does is the company protecting your credit card details by offering this service officially.

I think those doomsayers are mostly disgruntled WoW players who can't get over the fact that the game they invested their lifetime into is well beyond it's glory days.

Because it doesn’t have a big streamer as poster boy with a horde of mentally disadvantaged gen Zs following him.

That’s the only reason people say it’s dead.

Game is chill, no FOMO, no overly forced player interactions, no need to pretend to be friends with a couple random strangers to have a shot at item X like in ‘that game’. Actually best thing is that the game doesn’t have a Twitch following or a big streamer representing it, that keeps most of the cringe away.

Originally posted by Daniel:
GW2 is literally the most solo friendly MMO on the market. You can hop in and out of everything without even having to group up, you can buy everything on the TP, you can solo content made for groups with the right specs and gear and it’s also the most alt friendly game.

Other than that, it’s not a ‘main game’, it never was. It’s something you come back to from time to time (the no-sub model hints at this), the expacs are less than a meal, so it obviously won’t have to meet Blizzard or Square Enix standards.


not even a month later and you already despise the game and praising asmongold and WoW again?

I don’t despise anything, I’m just seeing both the good and the ugly.

Well he removed his API key so it's likely ANET will just pretend like nothing's happening.
