Remember how excited everyone was for GW2? Fucking hell man... Such a disappointment. That endgame was an absolute joke

i play a few weeks of singleplayer gw once a year
the combat really only works in a multiplayer setting, otherwise its sort of bland

gw2 is the first and last game i ever preordered. jesus christ what a mess

>the combat really only works in a multiplayer setting
That's where the best action is!

Yeah, day one purchase and HUGE regrets.
However, picked it up a while ago and it's ok now. Not amazing, but ok.

it might be ok if you want a traditional mmo but i dont. theres a reason why the only mmos i ever got into are runescape and guild wars, because they are different

There's just nothing meaningful to do in the end. There are raids, sure, but the rewards are an absolute joke. The game is about fashion now, and that is not a place you want your mmorpg to end up in

REMOVE TURTLE FUCKERS

gw2 was about fashion pretty much from day 1

Dragons are now literally "dindu nuffin" tier.
Fuck this gay-ass fairyland story.

Jesus did I grind that for days

well, where should it end up with? meaningless upgrade farm? Like, once you get top tier gear what is there to do?

Fuck that challenge. Untill recently (sic!) I've managed to uncover the whole map there.
What a shithsow.
And of course, not a single armor piece drop.

it's so fucking sad that this game is great and gw2 is a fucking fagfest with gay pride marches and it runs like a complete pile of stinky shit.

To add, literally EVERY living world episode was fucked at the launch day and had to be patched asap.
I guess knowing how to write and compile code is way too cis.

there was a time when the GW Devs were honestly some of the best out there. when they released shit it was tested(fully) and ready to go.

I have yet to know about any fuck ups with the 1st game.

festivals always hit their servers hard

no, i was more into gvg/pvp etc, i never cared about that crap until they announced we could link shit with gw2. i then did the bare min to get skins or whatever the hell it was

Nah, just flavor. And a bit of foreshadowing for 2.

and loved my E denial/interuupt mez
it's so long since i thought about it i can't even remember builds and i had all my templates on a (lol)256MB lexar jump drive that fucking died...
all that shit lost. i think i may have an old HDD somewhere with that shit saved. one day i guess i'll jave to dig for it but i don't even know if i have IDE to USB cables laying around anymore

Tell me about it. I have 3 HDDs full of old GW screens and old 4fuck shit since 2008 lost God knows where.

Including screencap of my RA ranger disrupting Power Block on 40/40 mesmer.
That mesmer was Starcraft, first r15 faget. ;^)

one day i'll dig but i only ever think about it when i get into these threads. i get motivated then start looking then just say fuck it..too many feels. last time i logged in i didn't even open years worth of b-day presents. saw friends list and just..welp logged off. i have unopened boxes of the game for storage alts that i don't know where the hell i put them. i think if i ever find them imma just drop the keys into a thread like this..

Fun situation: some time ago I was playing on my LDoA character and randomly opened my friend's list.
Turns out ther guy that I was playing with over a decade ago was in. Boy, that was a feel-fest combined with autistic analysis of how things went.
Even if it was like 10 minutes talk, it really felt like the old times.

Can someone explain why GW2 was so bad compared with GW1? I never got to play the first, but I played the second and thought it was at least better than WoW. I've heard the first one was more unique, though?

it ditched everything that made the first one good and unique

>Steve Blum is the great grandfather of Steve Blum

Like what?

Skill system, to begin with.

Shut the FUCK up IDIOT

the devs were totally different.
now, the anet devs are like fast food and their studio has revolving doors. they won't/can't even update their own game engine to today's standards. they fell behind the curve on that and are fucked because of it in the game performance department.
>2019
>DX9
shit's fucked. buy gems for a new chair skin, OK?

GW1 was shit ever since they added customizable hero npcs

Compelling argument, you got me

What does that mean? I don't know anything about GW1, remember.
So general mismanagement too?

What's even the best MMO to play nowadays? I played FFXIV for a bit but it wasn't really much different to WoW.

I'm not him, I just think the idea of someone claiming something and immediately resort to acting like a child when confronted is funny

I don't know what to call it.
mismanagement is a nice way to put it i guess.
i've lost count how many new lead devs they had in the last year.

Attached: 1554337491370.jpg (279x442, 28K)

Skills are now weapon-locked. It was completley different in GW1. Of course, melee attacks needed designated weapon and assassian (gw2's thief) could use only daggers (or scythe if you took critical strikes dervish build). You could take a secondary profession and use all its skills, but without attribute points (the more you invest in let's say fire magic as elementalist, the better you perform) of the secodnary profession's main attribute, list here:
>wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Attribute
So if you were let's say warrior/ranger you could use a pet and bow attacks but withput Expertise which is ranger's main attribute and lowers skill's energy cost.

>JUST BUY NEW MOUNT SKINS OK?
>LOOK HOW PRETTY IT IS

Attached: 1544778692552.jpg (265x476, 31K)

So it basically had more depth to it in terms of what build choices you could make? I remember playing GW2 and thinking "do I really just have like five skills as a thief".

Ravioli ravioli, what's in the bagoli?

Yes, this exactly. PvP had a lot of crazy builds with a lot of people being "oh shit it actually works!".

I did, but it's dead.

I tried Guild Wars 2, but it's just not what I wanted or expected. I still played it for a while, but after the nerf to Flag Warrior and Healing Guardian, I don't want to touch it anymore.

I play this game pretty much everyday because it's a good timesink, and I have a lot of time. I wouldn't mind shit like this if they were mostly silent about it or were a little portion of the playerbase, but I feel like 90% of the playerbase is faggots. I hate that. The chat can also get really cringe when they start talking

GW raids are weird. They're just "Elite Dungeons", and there's no way you're doing those with heroes.

I play Warrior, but first time you probably want a backline DPS like Ranger.
Your party setup should look something like
>2 monk
>2 minion master necro
>2 Warrior/Derivsh for tanking
>1 Mesmer with only interrupts

This is how I do it, and it works so well.
Hero Monks/Mesmers are fucking insane, they can see everything at all times and are significantly better at doing things on a whim than players. The only thing Player Monks have over NPC monks is their decision making, sometimes NPC monks heal an ally that just took 5 damage and blow through a jillion mana to heal it.

which profession is the paladin in guild wars. paragon?

>No other game has anything remotely similar to sustained Enchantment monk
Putting a fuckload of enchants on an allied Dervish, so long as he didn't Strip them, was the fucking bomb. It was like turning a buddy into a raid boss.

>play shitty themepark WoW knock off MMOs of yesteryear
FUCK no

play EVE or old Runescape, lads. or Wurm if you're seriously determined to become autistic.

Dervish. Melee class with buff spells. That's the closest you're gonna get.

>WoW knockoff
Nice bait retard-chan.

I've played warrior, derv, and Ranger extensively. I agree on the hero monks, as well as mm since it's a bitch to micromanage hordes health.

Do hero mesmers have the ability to differentiate between casting and physical enemies for counters? Or do you just give them a specialized build depending on dungeon? I was thinking of rolling mesmer

>bait
It isn't bait at all. just because it doesn't play exactly like WoW doesn't mean it isn't a

>theme park
>WoW killer!!!
>of yesteryear

I think they can tell the difference, but you wanna have a Physical/Casting shutdown build you switch to based on the situation. You only bring 1 mesmer, you don't want to stretch them too thin.

Mesmers were always pretty neat, at least a concept.

I just never liked the gameplay that much.

I will strip those enchantments for dps thank you very much

First of all, Guild Wars isn't even an MMORPG.
Second, not all high fantasy games are trying to be WoW you literal mongoloid.
Third, yeah it was trying to be a WoW killer. Why wouldn't you want to be? WoW made millions upon millions of dollars.

I mean you could just roll a female paragon.

which profession has cooler armor, warrior or dervish?

also does this game typically go on steam sales?

It all comes down to whether you like hoods and robes or traditional heavy armor

>Steam Sales
You're getting 3 expansions for what, 20 bucks? Just buy it user.
>Warrior or Dervish?
Do you like plate armor or robes?

I like both, to be fair

the trilogy is 30$, not much in retrospect I guess but maybe it goes on sale tomorrow kek

Yeah you could wait to see if it goes on sale tomorrow.
>Entire trilogy is 30 bucks
I spent 60 on them new as they released. What the fuck.

>as they released
there's your answer user, shits like 10+ years old now

I demand a refund for the difference in amount

nintendo is the only company that keeps decade old+ games at original release price.

I'd really love to but i gave my account to a friend years ago so he could have the guild wars 2 accountbonus, hoewever his account got hacked and with that my gw1 account aswell.
Arenanet doesnt really respond in recovering it. My own fault i guess, but it really sucks.

ArenaNet has the WORST fucking customer service imaginable, and literally NO customer service in regards to GW1.

literal retards, if discounts weren't profitable they wouldn't be so common. how many people have 200 games they never even started on steam that were bought on sale?

On the bright side you won't have to fork over $10 per old character to have them run around with you as heroes to maximize nostalgia

lmao that's an interesting service

This service was fucking amazing and I didn't even care if it cost money. I loved having my characters as Heroes.
I made a fucking Necro just to have a cool Necro hero.

Headbutt Axe Warrior. Nobody expected an unresistable 100 Damage after getting hit with Deep Wounds.

You could use that build to fast unlock elite skills for heroes at least.

I recall using paragon builds purely built around redundant shouts or monk builds with a ton of resurrection skills

the trilogy package has been around since 2008 btw

just a few weeks ago they finally added the complete package to their web store (don't think it's on steam). it has all 4 campaigns

on the other hand i've seen the steam packages go on 50-75% off but their sales timing is usually tied to their internal marketing schedule and not to steam events so it's awkward unless you put it on your wishlist

I wonder what they will update next.

UA monk. That spell was just way to fucking usefull to not take it.

Yes, you still can do this, but favor, which is needed for shrines to have active buffs is rare these days as it depends on the maxed titles. giving 3 minues of favor/title.

Well first off my biggest gripe is that it sets itself out to be a big adventure (with possible friends) putting up these stories and writing and then completely says fuck that and makes it a shitty mmo where nothing you do changes anything. There's literally a mission where you have to save the only half of the worlds remaining human population and whoopsie doopsie their literal only leader, beloved and cherished fucking kicks it. Nothing changes, right after that mission you are slapped into some shitty area with a guy telling you to kill 5 reskinned gargoyles. They didn't even do anything good with the whole self contained areas thing.

The missions gameplay is boring. Repetitive and a slog, you will be yawning your fucking eyes out at all the devourers that can't even kill you unless you fall asleep so they're just there for the most awful filler of all. You feel no excitement in fighting any new enemy because you know and can quite literally see a horde of them mindlessly milling about in the background.

The social aspect of the game is absolutely horrendous as any group or friend you have to physically meet in the game world and interact with to even do anything so you have to shift trough hordes of shitters and chinese bots while wandering around huge empty zones because everyone and their mother has solo'd the entire story 5 times. It's also fucking worthless, while any game is improved by having a laugh with a few buddies in GW1 it's completely optional to even bring anyone from the getgo.

I genuinely can't understand why people told me this was a good game and I'm never gonna get any responses from here, because fuck nostalgia and it's literally reality warping aspects for these fucking Inshills.

2 guys from the OG crew left, they tend to the first GW.

GW1 had a rather unique skillsystem, you could double class and put in anything from either class, your main class only had a primary talent-ish thing to provide
There were also hundreds of skills, this means millions of builds per character. Combine 8 of those into a party, and now you've got tons of room for theorycrafting and building builds
Minions used mostly character skills too, aka casting the same stuff as you do
The game was instance-based, so you'd equip your stuff and gather your party while in a town, and then leave into a PvE area where there's just you and your party of 8 (12 in some areas). Enemies were rather smart, they patrolled areas and there were scripted events, so the actual gameplay was often more tactical than the average brawlfest of a mmo
GW2 ditched these two major aspects

>how good the Guild Wars Skill
what you mean bland and overly specialistic? Skills also means shit next to abilities this shit if fucking awful next to REAL games.

I wish I could replay GW as an adult me

Prophecy is 100% SOUL but it's pretty tedious and really slow, leveling to 20 takes forever and you have so much shit to do before shit gets real, not to mention you won't have access to actual armor until the last 15% of the game
Faction is just as SOULful as prophecy, but the starting area is much shorter (and much more intense, it can even get hard as soon as you get on the main continent and face swarm upon swarm of afflicted). You level much, much faster though so you can have fun with coutnless skills much earlier and have access to the best tier of armor really early, you will still unlock new gear appearance throughout the entire campaign. you also have access to a bunch of heroes.
Nightfall is the zoomer / nu-GW experience : every, and I mean EVERY area is story-locked behind mandatory title grind at every stage of the game, starting in the first island all the way into the last domain. it does have some perks (most heroes are from this campaign) but it's ultra shit and soulless.

play what u want i got every charicter but if u start in pre ascalon you can only use henchmen untill u hit lions arch and it will take you much longer
start ur dervish grab every skill u can find get some searing heat eles let the fun begin

It was just Kralkatorik who did that. Zhaitan and Mordremoth weren't repentant at all when you killed them.
Kralk developed a split personality from eating too much magic and realized the world would be better off without him.

>people still afk to show off their obsidian armor

im not sure what game you played but nightfall is by far the fastest campaign

Did you just forget the part where you have to grind like 100k faction for Kurzicks or Luxons near the end?

I still have very fond memories of fort aspenwood. More devs need to grow some balls and make asymmetrical pvp games.

dervish get hp avatar and balth avatar looks mega cool

also u get a run to droks mfw you dont know this you can even run yourself "its not easy tho"

it's more like 10k and you get like 2ish k per JQ run that last between 5 and 10 minutes

lolno
"okay you have the required level and gear but look you have to go back to this area you're already sick of and you have to clear the entire map of mobs to get enough point to progress further through the sotry"
Faction at least only required you to follow the main quest to open up new areas, and Prophecy you could go anywhere you wanted provided you were very patient or had a runner friend

Ahhh... the great outdoors!

not wanting sunspear rep and ok i used to do nightfall in a day dude im unsure how you think its slow its the fastest to 20 and you can get all the good heroes + a lost of nice elite skills its the perfect start

SOMEONE MAKE A PART 2 THREAD ONCE THIS HITS 500, I LAST THOUGHT OF THIS GAME 5 YEARS AGO AND MY EYES WATERED WHEN I SAW THIS THREAD

The only time it required you to do that is right before leaving Istan, and all you need to do is either hit either Sunspear Rank 6, which is 1000 points, or hit level 17.

>its the fastest to 20
100% fucking wrong
Faction has always been the fastest way to 20, not to mention you can have your max tier armor right after leaving shin jea island
Piece of shit NF not only requires you to grind titles but you also have to spam sidequests to upgrade your sunspear HQ and get access to their armorers

I started a new character a few weeks ago and in the time it took to get to level 8 in nightfall I was level 16 in factions. Factions is by far faster and the mission rating system is much more fun (speed = rating instead of super shitty out of the way secondary objectives). The only thing bad about factions is that you don't get heroes right away, but you get to KC super quick so you'll be able to hop over to NF or EotN to get what you need.

Not to mention it's the easiest at getting the bonus 30 attribute points.

You can finish factions with henchmen only. NM at least, never tried that in HM.

Make one yourself, faget. I'll gladly participate.

FUCKING
THOUSAND

POINTS
MEANWHILE IM BREEZING THROUGH FACTION JUST DOING THE MSQ AND THE STORY MISSIONS
HAVE FUN GRINDING YOUR TITLES LIKE A GOOD BASEDBOY
ALSO RITS AND ASSASSINS ARE BETTER THAN PARAGONS AND DERVISH

That's true, but having 8 different builds instead of 1 is 8 times the fun.

Have fun farming 10k faction.

>all the seething losers in pvp calling you a narutard after losing

I liked using caster classes in groups of other players, particularly mesmer and rit, but usually did melee when I played solo.

>After that your going to want to buy XP scrolls
LOL

funny thing is you cant do that in factions makes ya think huh i played all campaings start to finish 20+ times ez and nf is the fastest best start for any new charicter prophecies is the most story rich

>most of the leveling is done in EotN and not in Nightfall
Thanks for confirming Faction is faster than NF

This thread is going to die, just like GW1

you guys are saying its not the fastest its objectively is to power level to normal level even as a 1st time hero by any metric dude

funny how he didnt start in factions then go isnt it the level of cope
