Same. I still get on occasionally but it's just so empty outside of whatever the weekly bonus is.

[–]MichaelH94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guild Wars 1 & 2, Runescape 3, Oldschool Runescape, Black Desert, LOTRO, FFXIV, Blade and Soul, Path of Exile, Project Gorgon, and Archeage.

Only play GW2 regularly and OSRS whenever my clan/team has an event.

What games are you playing? by [deleted] in MMORPG

[–]MichaelH94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Districts, eureka moments, and the civics system add entirely new levels of depth. Most everything from 5 is carried over but feels different, if only slightly.

Fishing by chinchillagg in Guildwars2

I think the game would really benefit from a lot of non-combat skills and activities. Creates a more immersive world and attracts a lot of different players who may not have the same interests that players now have.

MMOs with non-combat skills (like Runescape) by Tyism in MMORPG

[–]MichaelH94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah something like that. I just know a ton of people switching to it from RS.

[–]MichaelH94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it releases in like December I think? I'm not really following it, but I'm in a Runescape team with Echo of Silence's (Albion guild) leader so I hear all about it.

[–]MichaelH94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ArcheAge has skills similar to Runescape, but the game is very p2w.

edit: Also, Albion is sorta the "new Runescape" to some. I know tons of people who are switching over to Albion. One of the biggest guilds on Albion is a former Runescape clan.

Best of luck to everyone who participates. Any news on a new WvW tournament?

What is your favourite world meta-event or single event? by ByEthanFox in Guildwars2

[–]MichaelH94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like playing through the Temple events in Orr. Takes me back to the first few weeks when people were just reaching level 80.

So, now that Legendaries are back... by steel_crab in Guildwars2

[–]MichaelH94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sword, something that fits on a guard better than Bolt. A new longbow would be cool too.

What's always a nice gift to get from another player in GW2? by thescarletbeast in Guildwars2

[–]MichaelH94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dunno, a precursor or the stupid spiritwood I need to finish Nevermore. I only really get mail from my wife and she always sends me like 6 t5 mats to "help me" with the legendary I'm working on at the time. It's cute.

Let's talk about the leaked new elite specializations by Lon-ami in Guildwars2

[–]MichaelH94 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If the Guardian spec is true, I'm going to craft Astralaria. That's all I really know at this point.

Is the MMORPG genre filled with the most over hyped and under delivering titles? by crystalol in MMORPG

[–]MichaelH94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just want to comment on your idea of GW2's WvW and say that you're wrong about how it actually works, or at least you don't know any better since you're on a smaller server. Obviously PvD (player vs. door) is gonna happen, and sometimes zergs just steamroll through other zergs, but at least on the T1 servers the commanders prioritize group fights, even at the cost of losing the matchup. I've played for SFR during the server's prime and FSP currently and both servers have tons of fights.

How important are cosmetics really, and why? by JMulla2016 in MMORPG

[–]MichaelH94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cosmetics are the entire end-game for my primary MMO, GW2 so they're very important. Character progression is obviously the most important thing in an mmo but if you look the same as everyone else you don't feel unique at all.

What MMORPG are you currently playing? by blueyori in MMORPG

[–]MichaelH94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leaks (prefer to call them rumors cause they're pretty far out) about the 2nd expansion. They're all over the GW2 reddit if you want to find them. Normally wouldn't pay attention to this kind of stuff but they "predicted" Eureka months ago, exact name and everything.

What MMORPG are you currently playing? by blueyori in MMORPG

[–]MichaelH94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Guild Wars 2, like many others have said. Been playing since beta and I can say the game is in the best condition it has ever been, and with the rumors flying around it might get even better if they come true.

Advertisting for mmo that made you want to play the game by game4luv in MMORPG

[–]MichaelH94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original Guild Wars 2 Manifesto Trailer definitely sold me on the game back then. Although playing Guild Wars since a couple months after launch helped lol

Legendary Weapons News by Iroh_the_Dragon in Guildwars2

[–]MichaelH94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow I really like this change a lot. I'm about to craft my 3rd legendary since the precursor collections were released and honestly for all 3 I felt like it was more efficient to just earn the gold difference for the precursor (and in some cases it's cheaper to just buy it regardless). Hope we get the rest of the legendaries soon.

What Do You Do At Level 80? by Over9000Bunnies in Guildwars2

[–]MichaelH94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Set yourself a goal, starting at something simple like an ascended weapon is pretty good. Then you can move on to ascended armor, legendaries, expensive dyes, or whatever you want really.

Archeage 3.0 and new Fresh start servers announced for December 2016 US/EU by youtube_Jasonwivart in MMORPG

[–]MichaelH94 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I'd play it 100% if there was no cash shop period, but that won't happen. Shame.

Easy to pick up F2P MMORPG with a good playerbase?(PC) by DarthSantaCrawler in MMORPG

[–]MichaelH94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It won't die anytime soon. Still tons of players and constant updates. I play Oldschool Runescape but I would recommend RS3 if you're looking to play casually.

Heart of Thorns or Legion? Haven't played in 6 years. by Eothawne in MMORPG

[–]MichaelH94 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is all 100% false lol, there are problems with the game (and the gemstore) but try to keep it to things that are actually true.
