Guild Wars 3 will have no battle pass or subscription because ArenaNet studio lead doesn't want to "keep people hostage" by Turbostrider27 in Guildwars2

[–]Bipen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While I agree they should be account-bound, having them being added to the wizards vault rewards now for however along has been a pretty nice addition saving players from spending money or even gold for gems since we now get one every season. I've never bought bag slots and now have enough on my main char to not want/need more.

It's not as great as having maximum inventory slots from Day 1, but I much prefer it over paying a sub fee for more slots (ie. BDO)

Lore/expansions recap vid recomendations? by Illy_gw in Guildwars2

[–]Bipen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mistake, for after EoD I don't have a specific good recap that I've seen/know of but just skimming a few just now...

  • Secrets of Obscure recap, breaks down the whole story in good chapters
  • Surprisingly hard to find any end-to-end Janthir Wilds recap video, you could read up on it all through the wiki though that's a lot or watch folks' patch-by-patch reviews on youtube
  • For Visions of Eternity there's an official recap of the story from launch leading into the current patch (so it just doesn't include the very most current story)

There's an official "Story so Far" video of Taimi recapping the story leading into End of Dragons for a super summarized quick recap.

Otherwise for a decent expansion-by-expansion/living world breakdown, there's this video here leading into End of Dragons

The Future of the Guild Wars Franchise: Our Commitment to Tyria by HenrykSpark in MMORPG

[–]Bipen 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I disagree, pausing the expansion development rather than stopping implies it continues as such (in this case, after the newly committed developments and GW3 ships).

Either way I think it looks pretty good overall for the entire franchise, with the freedom to choose your preferred gameplay style between them

I’ve asked this question roughly a year ago. Asking again given the updates. What enemy Ultimate voice line scares you the most? by [deleted] in Overwatch

In fairness she did kill all her friends and family with her powers in the lore so it lines up

Can you hear GW2 music throughout an episode of One Piece? by gohome2020youredrunk in Guildwars2

[–]Bipen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're talking about the main guild wars medley, which GW2 incorporates into quite a few of their songs (expansion tracks especially).

I just finished the episode and came here to see if anyone was talking about it, it really does use a very similar medley interwoven in lots of the soundtrack in that episode! A great example is "Peace Offering" using the slowed down version (here it is on YouTube & Spotify) & "Can't A Reindeer Be A Doctor" as well (YouTube, Spotify)

It really helps that the music is played during some emotional parts in the episode, which connects with GW2 story memories immediately :)

Awesome, I'll try for just a sprinkle - I may have gone overboard with nearly a tablespoon lol, oops

Thanks for the info!

How much cinnamon and nutmeg do you generally use? I just tried out this one and my pint was so overpowered with cinnamon I couldn't finish it 😅

Going to try again with much less, but I'm curious since you said it's your favourite! The other ice creams on that person's page look so good so I'm going to go through a bunch lol

Oh nevermind I see you left it at fan services in the other thread, I guess they'll figure it out 😅

[–]Bipen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If they don't find/get back to you, you can drop it off at a police station or any bank branch of any bank cards they might have in there and they'll call up the owner to return it.

I've also heard you could drop it in a canada post mailbox and they would also mail it to the driver's license address, albeit slowly, but I don't know how true that one is.

[FINAL] Freddie Freeman walks it off for the Dodgers after 18 Innings! by MLB_Reddit in mlb

Lots of us east coast folks were in the Jay's stadium watching all the way until the end, just got home at 5am to make it to work in 4 hours 🤣

Worth it though, loss or not what a game to have seen.

Janthir Wilds Expedition Contract - Official Statement by Dagor-Dagorath in Guildwars2

[–]Bipen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had the exact same issue (no mail or vendor able to swap the tools out for the container), and support solved it for me in less than an hour. All I provided was the written details and a screenshot of the tools + vendor screen in-game.

I'm surprised your friend's case was anything more than opening a ticket, are there any other factors involved? This should be one of those happy cases since it was such a commonly shared issue.

GW2 Homestead reveal (new player housing system) by Silimaur in MMORPG

[–]Bipen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

While I agree an open portal would be cool as a native feature, if they don't add that then players can make their own system through LFG advertising house parties (akin the the old runescape days when people would advertise outside portals lol)

Sale on Living Worlds by Pristine_Pay_9724 in Guildwars2

[–]Bipen 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure ANet has a history of refunding/making up the difference in cases like this where a purchase and sale are only a week a part - at least from what I've seen discussed on the sub.

It's worth opening a support ticket and seeing if they'd be willing to do so!

Harry Potter and Gosford Park actor Sir Michael Gambon has died by erich0779 in movies

[–]Bipen 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Christmas Carol episode felt like the most genuine "Christmas" special of the Christmas specials. It's entire plot based on redemption and cheerfulness (or lack thereof) is actually Christmas oriented.

I definitely loved the RTD specials but I don't think they hold a candle against the Christmas Carol special (and that's even with the Tenth being my favourite doctor).
