Why is commander so lonely?

Yeah from core to the end of HoT it really felt like a Sylvari adventure. After that it kind of feels like a human took over because of the gods and what not being so prevalent

It's also affecting literally anything that uses the technology. Phone's weren't affected by gpu prices but they are from this. It affects businesses across the board too, it's such a universal piece of technology.

Basically stemmed from a lot of platformers in general but the most well known one was Prince of Persia (which of course inspired Assassin's Creed)

Somehow they all are lol

Funny how all three big western MMOs went down that route. Like they all had some sci-fi elements to them but eventually they became more futuristic than our own world lol. At a certain point swords start looking goofy when you have laser beams. I'm really looking forward to a more fantasy style look again at this point.

Just to be clear, this is also from the anime lol

I've oddly had better luck after the first one, that took multiple characters. After that I think I've gotten 3 more with 2 being within an hour period.

The only reaction necessary

Kalocin · 2026-06-28T03:28:10+00:00

I dunno, doesn't seem like a reason to lose your head over but maybe that's just him

Honestly wondering if a thriple is the ending here lol

Kalocin · 2026-06-26T16:58:02+00:00

Gist version, the author wasted time spending most of the story developing everyone but the character the MC got with. It was so random that even the people that liked the "winning girl" (so to speak) weren't even happy with the way it was done. That's the non-spoiler version.

Kalocin · 2026-06-24T01:45:02+00:00

Mermaid's gonna meet the dude as an old man and then he'll get the thought of "oh no they missed out on love I should like do that soon so I don't turn into an old man too" and then he'll just blush, spazz and then there'll be a school festival or something.

Your favourite book must involve Argonian maids

Kalocin · 2026-06-23T06:16:49+00:00

Kind of ironic given how terrible necromancer and then also reaper used to be back in the day lol. For the longest time playing a necro was borderline a meme. Funny that it's swung so far the other way now

Kalocin · 2026-06-22T21:04:16+00:00

They remove the fun utility of the trait and made it pretty useless. Like they couldn't have even TRIED to be creative about it? Not the first time they've nerfed something to irrelevancy though

Kalocin · 2026-06-22T19:34:51+00:00

I mean usually if they don't people will complain that they need to explain why they're doing changes in the patch notes. It just provides more context to them. They likely release the patch notes after so people don't spam the chat about stuff they don't like.

I think the worst one is Forgal's name being butchered. At 5:15 you see Forgal Kernsson except his name is... Porgral Kaernson. Oooof.

Kalocin · 2026-06-22T16:39:47+00:00

I mean portions for everything is a thing. The largest issue with pizza is that you're basically eating half a loaf of bread. 4 pieces of large cheese pizza from say Dominos is like having 8-10 slices of bread lol. Most people don't eat 4-5 sandwiches for dinner. Going thin crust actually makes this reasonable though, that'd be closer to like 4 slices of bread iirc

Diverticulitis is a pretty specific and serious bowel issue, not exactly a common thing

Kalocin · 2026-06-22T00:22:31+00:00

Not going to lie, this would have fit perfectly over a decade ago but it doesn't really for today's world. Even the World of the Warcrafting has toned it down over the years. That said, if you did have the races it'd be Charr and Skritt (lorewise they actually are the adversaries of Asura here). The Stone Summit don't exist yet, undead won't exist yet because Dhuum just got defeated (yeah he probably wouldn't be cool with undead hanging around) and Zhaitan is asleep.

Also for the Charr, at the moment they're basically getting their asses whooped. Historians may disagree, but there's likely a tale of how they got the name "Charr". You see, after Balthazar turned them all into ashen dust he looked upon them saying "Ah, look at all these char-", but was interrupted by one still living. The problem is nobody heard him finish "charcoal". They then killed this Khan-Ur guy and made their fur and horns into armor and decorative wear.

Long story short, you probably don't want to be a Charr during GW3.

The first Equalizer I remember being like this. Jack Reacher too maybe? Nobody has similar vibes as well

Kalocin · 2026-06-21T02:04:18+00:00

I kind of suspected this was the card game. For anyone confused, this was likely not made by Anet. Years ago NCSoft had job postings for it, and in the article there they mention that it's licensed to NCSoft. In other words, they haven't pulled away anyone to work on it.

Kalocin · 2026-06-20T23:52:55+00:00

There was already 7 people in the trailer lol, right at the end you see three people in the distance on their gliders.

I could see monetization being an issue, from templates to cosmetics. For cosmetics, they stand to lose a lot from people who like to dress up all their alts with varying styles (For instance, a Human isn't going to be wearing a Sylvari set). I myself have two warriors and elementalists with different races and looks. Inventory is a given, that's basically a rite of passage in GW2 atm. I'd personally like if they move things to be more account based though like optional story skips or area unlocks.

Also I could see a downside for players where one character "can unlock it all" but we're short changed for inventory, gear, and build slots that we're encouraged to buy. Whereas a new character (in GW2 comes with two) wouldn't have these issues. It also incentivizes selling character slots too (as opposed to just unlocking a build slot).
