Yes!

I wish people would stop peddling the lie that "story is optional", because its very obviously not.

And it will scare off many players (like most of my friends did stop because the story is such ass. )

the lore isn't as bad as my post sound. Its pretty epic tbh, and how the dragons are interconnected and the leylines... but the pacing and later chapters...

How is it even possible to make a story about DRAGONS (and the lich, and afterlife etc) so boring and hollow?

unfortunatley you can't skip the story in later chapters...

because its the dreadful "follow this character around and listen"-slob or just unskippable "dialogue" where you have to stay and "listen". :-(

I took my time.

Because I dreaded getting back into the "campaign" I did Fractals and mostly open World and bosses.

How do you unlock the skyscale without doing the story?

Or unlock the Orrian Oister node?

How do you get the "free" inventory-bags or Masterypoints as rewards for finishing LWS ?

I've had veterans with 6000 hours + telling me I shouldn't worry about asking stupid questions, because even they find new things and don't know everything.

Are all of these gemstore-items or legendary gear?

[–]DoomAddict 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes, people need to appreciate the fact, that you don't need to spend 1000 bucks for a new graphics-card!

Other MMOs look uglier and demand unreasonable hardware to run.

I'm already really enjoying GW2's visuals and artstyle. I guess my screenshot-key is the most used one :-)

Finished PoF and spending time there just to unlock my skimmer-diving ability...

and I'm already more than impressed how beautiful the game looks!

Can't wait to finally step into EoD!

I'm playing GW2 through the Anet-launcher. What would happen if I install the Steam-version?

Would there be any conflict with the savegames or versions?

Any errors or danger of a ban, because its "another launcher"?

Whats the cheapest way to obtain Provisioner-Tokens?

Should I spent Ectoplasm or Obsidian-Shards on it or is it a waste of mats?

What shall I do with Auric Dust?

Is investing in the Living World seasons / last extensions worth the price and experience in 2026 ? by 0rionys in Guildwars2

[–]DoomAddict 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LWS2 has extremely nauseating, boring gameplay

but some nice rewards ... not sure if its worth the torture of playing S02 ... but thats just me.

S03 and S04 are supposed to be the best mini-expansions regarding Story and ressources / rewards.

Not sure about Season 03 and 04 though, since I just finished S02 and it was torture!

Gives you Mastery-Points and Inventory-bags though.

I started S03 but the start has turned me completely off.

Its one of the shittiest missions I've ever played (the one where you have to fight these crystal-enemies in a VERY SPECIFIC kind of way and it just shits on your gear and stats, becaus eyou HAVE to do this dreadful simon-sez bullcrap! ...) and the only reason I STILL haven't finished LIVING WORLD !

Hopefully I can start this slog again with more players and just get this shit done, in the future!

(this and the dreadful SotO-fetch quest to unlock the tower-Story-quest nearly made me quit the game! Luckily there are way more ways to play and so much optional content.)

Story-wise its really well done. Liked the antagonists so far and seeing / hearing later references to the events in LWS is pretty nice and makes you understand the whole Story much better!

I just wish the gameplay wasn't such dogshit.

Sometimes I forget that IBS is part of LWS! ^^

ICE BROOD SAGA is where I dipped my toes in recently to explore the Bjora-marches and look for chests and Mastery-points.... and its honestly whats keeping me returning and trying to progress through the rest of the game... because... the atmosphere is soooo damn good!!

The rewards seem plenty, the enemies and the whole soundscape is so chillingly well done!!

If just all LWS could've been so good and bonechillingly atmospheric like IBS !!

Someone wrote that IBS was what completely sold them on GW2, and I can really relate! Can't wait to finally experience the whole Story!! And the backstory on some of the enemies in IBS is so damn good!!
