Is Guild Wars 2 Still Worth Playing in 2024 | Guild Wars 2 Secrets of the Obscure Review 

Strongly agree about the poor marketing. This game is AMAZING they should market it a lot more.

One thing you don't understand about the open world vs loading screens. GW2 servers have only been down for roughly 20 hrs over 12 years. Because of the map based system GW2 does not go offline to update the server. It can run 2 versions of the game at the same time. Opening maps and closing them as needed allowing for server size to rapidly adjust to the player base. This allows you to maintain a lagless connection even if the entire world is in a single area.

Legendary gear is supposed to be the endgame goal to work towards as far as gear is concerned. Legendary gear has the same stats as ascended gear but it’s still a desirable goal to work towards for several reasons including aesthetics, major conveniences like changeable stats, runes and sigils can be infinitely removed or put back in, and you don’t need transmutation charges to change the appearance.

I luckily just happen to come by this game a couple weeks ago browsing steam. I havent enjoyed an mmo in years and with how casual friendly this game is, it really delivers the ideal mmo experience in a reasonable amount of time

I absolutely adore the world of Tyria. They've secretly been building a massive, amazing game for the last 10 years, and most people don't know that it's there.

As an advise on what you can do when you feel lost : - Try and go to max mastery point (514 if I'm correct) : to go and get xp on matsery to train, and go and do achievments for the mastery points to unlock them . Its what I'm currently doing and so far, been quite great. I've been replaying the whole story to do the achievements and I find it quite fun -Hunt for legendary gear : they are basically gear with same power lvl as ascended, but that can change stats when u want, and share on all your caracters. Also they usualy have some special cosmetic effect, so its always nice. They are very long term project though, and you clearly shouldn't rush it

lol celestial crap lolololol i get the misconception, but believe it or not, cele is actually super OP especially for stuff like open world, roam wvw, and it was so broken that anet had to remove cele stat stuff from pvp. if you add up the numbers, cele actually gives higher amount if stat compared to more specialized builds. a lot of classes can make good use of all the stats (like ele, guards etc) so cele is actually incredibly op. it also allows much better survivability because you get extra def, hp, and healing power as well. its when ppl switch to berserker gear or viper (for condi builds) that itll be harder to survive in open world.

Completet he achievement Seasons of the Dreagons and after that you'll want all the Legendaries you can get.

The game did not get old, it matured. Biggest plus of horizontal progression is that you can take a break from it and come back whenever and you will have to do little or nothing at all to catch up. There are people that will like this and others prefer a constant grind since it focuses where to go in a game. It really is up to you. In this games the achievements work like sort of your quest log. You can also focus on the story. Or you can do whatever you want since the game gives you xp and/gold/crafting materials for whatever activity you chose to do. This did not used to be the case for people playing PvP or World vs World, but that was rebalanced some time ago. You mentioned having technical issues launching the game and that seems weird to me, I can only present my experience and what I have heard from other players, but in general the game is super stable. Like in ten years I have only had to reinstall the game once due to technical issues. Oh, the game has no downtime. When an update hits you have some hours before needing to leave the game to update it. One of the advantages of the game maps being instances. The other advantage is that it uses megaservers, so all players from your region will be directed to an active map. Most of the time you will see people running around wherever you go unless you go into instanced story bits. One of the faults of the game developers is that they kept reinventing the wheel. So there is content that you might like and will not get more of it into the game. Dungeons and raids for example, underwater combat, stuff like that. What is there is a good basis that could be improved, but it will not come to pass under that name or system. If you are lucky, every now and then you will have a week with a spotlight on that activity you like. But that's it. I find Guildwars 2 to be a great companion game. You can play other stuff and fall back to GW2 whenever you are in between other things. It being a buy to play game helps a lot in that sense. But it's good enough to be your main game too. Those who play the game wil find that it is definitely not for everybody, but it welcomes everybody that wants to give it a try. I don't agree with everything you say in the video, but I find your opinion fair.

Did you just call Celestial CRAP for open world survival?!?!? MY MAN! That is THE gear to not die in end game zones...only use literally ANYTHING else for group content that you want higher DPS or higher buff uptime....

So I would say, as some one who played this game in college with so much free time, to now being some one with a full time job and an active social life with tons of hobbies and career goals, Soto and the wizards vault has given me more than enough content to do with feeling like I still don't have enough time. Also the story of Soto is probably some of the best writing gw2 has had in a long time. I just hope they don't rush too hard on the quality of the content and keep up the quantity cause this expansion feels great so far, we shall see what the quarterly releases give us.

32:05 Just a note on addons: they are not officially supported! The fact that updates break them is pretty normal, since developers don't consider them when making updates.

great video.... but Celestial gear is absolutly viable. The thankiest build in the game is currently a vindicator using celestial gear and you can facetank some bosses solo

I just started playing GW2 and just found this vid and your channel. You just earned a sub. I liked the video and even though it was on the longer side it was engaging and not boring. Good job in my book. (Not that I know what or where or even which library my books in, but thats beside behind and on top of the point)

There are MMOs...and then there's Guild Wars 2.

Agree in most of it, except 3 things: 1) Celestial stats are amazing, strongest gear choice for most of builds o¡in OW PvE and in a good amount of WvW builds also. 2) Conquest is the main and best PvP mode, Stronghold the worst. Playing alonme and in a conformed team are entirely different experiences; you should try the later over voip if you really like the game mode. 3) You goal as a player should be A) having fun and B) get your character(s) in fully legendary gear. Since leg gear is shared in the legendary wardrobe across all your characters and build templates once you unlock a legendary item it becomes a superb piece of conveneince, since allows the player to reset the stats, the skins, the sigils/runes/infussions as many times as they want at 0 cost, requiring only to be out of combat. The QoL legendary gear provides is INMENSE, once you have a few you can't go back and getting full legendary becomes a main goal.

What I like about gw2 is that it's a good game wheter you have plenty of time to grind or few free time to dedicate to it. Every kind of player can find their personal goal even tho it could be hard to understand what it is. Imo the goal should be having fun so it depends on what you personally have fun with. If it's fashion then you have plenty of monthly objectives considering events and black lion chests and shop constantly add pieces to the already vast in game achievement system (you just have to dig in your achi interface to find out cool stuff). If it's about trying out builds then legendary gear is a great objective (which also adds up to fashion). With soto they added the Vault which imo gives nice daily, weekly and seasonal objectives with skins, gear and gold and is a super useful goal for both fashion and gearing up objectives said above! I see you like the competitive side and playing with friends and I think you did yourself an injustice not digging more into wvw. Despite being a meme in the wvw community, devs are really moving towards to a new system based on guilds fight. In few words, you will be able to be in the same match of your designated guild and this will make it super easy to play with friends! While this feature has been promised for years, it's now in an advanced state and 2024 will be a decisive year. You and your friends can still farm some gold from pvp, pay 500 gems (or zero, if it's your first time transfering) and move to a low populated server and have plenty of fun together in wvw while waiting for guild alliance system. GvG is extremely fun and all the builds are really focused on doing their specific role, with dps dealers running on the same squishy stats played in pve. Open field roaming is more bunker-y but the real great thing is that your group can theorycraft their own playstyle and composition and come up with your own strategy.

I just want to add that in EU fractal groups with randoms happens all the time and our lfg-finder is full of groups with all sorts of requests and if you can't find yours, make your own and people will join. For some reason in NA people wait for others to make groups, but when noone do, nothing happens and the lfg there is empty. Until that one guy add one and boom in sec it is full of people who was sitting there waiting. It is very strange and was always like that but only in NA, but what i want to say with it, fractals are done every day with randoms, just make sure to read the group text, come with a build that add a recent amount of dps and you can check this all by your self in the raidlobby at the dps golem to make sure you do more dps then the support and you are good t go =)

It's a great game and always a pleasure to get back to.

You can also just play staff mirage and break the game with mirage cloak Edit: WvW at face value is what you said, but it is the actual Guild Wars. The GvG can become incredibly hardcore and is almost entirely based on sustain like heal brand and Druid and not sheer dps. This is as someone who only played sPvP for years.

2:14 - Lost interest the moment you said only 3 classes are good.

The underwater combat is AMAZING!!! But, to my understanding, we are the minority...many people don't like to manage combat in a 3D environment, and plenty have voiced their hate for it, so ANet just left it there...and I'm still here hoping to see one day a full underwater map, with a Largos city or something (underwater PvP!!)

Ty buddy for helping GW! Ive been only playing this game for many many years and i will still continue to do!

pretty good complicated breakdown for gw2 combat and it’s pretty fair i think. enjoyed the video

And lovely to see more videos from you Yellow Banana fox!

You gotta fix your graphics. Turn off more resource intensive settings and put the ones that affect graphics the most on high. So you can have good looking game and high fps. There are ton of videos on yt. Edit: Also you can swap world in wvw. You also get 1 free swap, other than that you can get swap with gems.

Regarding progression: Keep playing for a bit, your crafting skills and/or a focus on what your supposed to do will emerge once you get into legendary crafting. Ofc they arent any better than your ascended stuff, but since you can make infinite copies of them it makes being an build-/alt-a-holic alot less painful. Masteries are a big part ofc and then theres achievements that give you nice stuff like the Fractal Reliquary. This game has enough stuff to keep you entertained for years, its pretty insane.

I didn't realize it were a 30+ mins vid until you said that. Nice job

Amazing video, subbed for sure!

About horizontal progression for people who are not familiar with the game: you can work towards legendary gear, which are not more powerful than than the tier below and only slightly better (5% I believe) than the one before that. But legendary has two distinct things that makes them worthwhile: distinctive looks and convenience. And the looks are not only in aesthetics but also in VXF it adds to your attacks and interactions with the world. But even if with this you don’t care, there’s the other aspect. See, it is true that power level is the same. However, once you deck your ascended gear a certain way, it costs a lot to change it. A legendary you can swap its stats and sockets as much as you want outside of combat. Also they ara account, and not character, bound. A huuuuuuuge improvement over the tier below, even though you will not perform any better with them.

One of the commanders i followed, when i started World vs World, had played GW2 for 6 years before he left the game, he only had 6 mastery points on hes account and was one of the best commanders i ever play with. So you can do absolutly nothing after you reach lvl 80 on this game, and still have tons of fun every day.

Great video! If you want a good comparison on how the game has grown, I'd recommend the original glowing review video from Angry Joe - it was his #1 best game for 2012. I also liked the review from Zero Punctuation and Jocat's Character Creator Critique. I agree that the game could use a better task list in the game to help keep track of goals. I keep a small pad of paper on my computer desk for that purpose. As a suggestion to players new to level 80, there's the mastery system for expansion owners and diving into the Fractal 'dungeons', which is available to everyone. Higher level Fractals are great for getting gold and loot which makes other goals a lot easier to achieve. And, with so many different game modes and activities to do and try out, as Angry Joe said too there's a little something for everyone. Try something out, be up front that you are new to the content (as the playerbase is friendly as a whole), and see if you like it. I was hoping that when the water dragon came up that we'd get more underwater content (as I like it too), but that didn't happen. Still wondering if with the faster expansion release schedule that they'll make one of them underwater. Anet has improved their 3rd dimension indicators in SotO to help with handling spatial awareness, which I personally think is the problem that most players have with the underwater stuff, so there's stuff that they could apply to that content. There was something you pointed out that I think you didn't quite fully connect with a later point you made. You said the game is somewhat pay to win and pointed out the gems to gold conversion that's available, but later on you questioned why you would want to grind gold as an endgame activity. In the design of the cash shop, they soft capped what little pay to win is argued to exist! Anet has also addressed a lot of the cash shop criticisms they've gotten over the years - legendaries on trading post for gold (people arguing gold for power)? They didn't do that for the later generations of legendary weapons, in addition to the game as a whole being more skill based rather than gear based. Random mount skin licenses? Even after designing them in the first place with a limited list and protection against getting repeats (so you could only get so many before you'd wind up with all of them), they did add the selectable license to the shop. Black Lion loot chests have a well known key farming method that can be done for free (if you don't mind dedicating a character slot to it), which is different than just raising up the gold for the gems for it.

I like your voice and the way this is presented! Well done, i subscribed :)

If there weren't the separate maps + loading screens, then GW2 would probably have problems like WOW with its lags in the events. The mega servers that GW2 uses are very good and therefore there are always enough players on the maps.

I played a lot of mmos and i stumbled across this one like half a year ago. I can say i enjoyed gw2 the most because of open world and horizontal progression. The game feels alive. And you get rewarded anything you do. You can litterally roam the world while lost and get rewarded

I love the new expansion. I’m not into the story at all in general , I don’t like it or follow it and the story in the new expansion is somehow not annoying at all and goes faster. I love GW2. I’m far from having perfect gear, I’m working on my ascended gear atm and on getting the new skyscale,but you know sometimes I log in and I want to do something different than my daily routine and what I love about GW2 is that there’s always an event going on, no matter where you are. Even when you’re leveling up, you’ll be making quests and all of a sudden a bunch of people shows up, like 50 people out of nowhere with their cool mounts and fashion and stuff and you go with them and you all fight a huge boss 🎉❤ How cool is this? So sometimes I just randomly teleport to a map and there’s something to do there and the best part you’ve never wasted your time,your account is always progressing.

The game is pretty great. The only reason I don't have charr and asura characters IS because the clothing modeling is abysmal. That's wild about getting the game to start.

Nah, I suggest to main elementalist immediately =D

Man, healing in gw2 can be fun, just as any other build, just gotta find the one that fits your style

I can confirm it can run in dirt. I have a laptop with a 4th gen intel processor and integrated graphics and runs decently, except when there's big groups of players of course.

I honestly don’t know why this guy isn’t more popular. His videos are good

Also, regarding the underwater stuff, i have one very specific complaint: Revenants Trident is fucking amazing, with the weapon skills having different effects based on the currently invoked Legends. And I am so fucking mad that Trident is the only weapon that does this. Also: Celestial is arguably the best for Open World and pretty good in WvW. (Also because Guardian is broken as fuck, you can just play celestial Firebrand and clear literally every raid while carrying your team with stability and aegis. It is ridiculous.)

Loved your review and wish you a lot of success because if it wasn't for you I would buy and play this Gem

Oh man, I forgot how much I loved playing stronghold when it was populated on launch... I haven't tried in some time, I guess I forgot about it after the ques got long as people returned to conquest pushing more and more poeple to also switch to conquest 😢

Never had any login/start-up issues in all my years of playing the game since release. Weird that you have so many issues :O

Underwater Ranger is the most powerful class in the game. Underwater combat is good. Your opinion is good.

Honestly, it is the most casual friendly MMO out there and they understand that now. I think they understand that their target audience is aging and the new generation isn't getting into MMOs like that and guild wars is going to adapt to the fact that there are Target audience is aging. And I'd say my favorite thing about the game is you will most definitely find a play style that suits you. And you can follow the meta build. But it is more fun if You come up with your own bill that fits how you like to play. I play a mesmer and I've always made a bill that fits how I like to play. Only one time was I ever kicked from content and it was because someone saw me use a skill that wasn't on the meta bill that they thought I was playing. It was only one skilled different from the meadow build and it kicked me because I said I wasn't doing optimal DPS because of that one skill. When I did just fine in the raid no downing did all the mechanics correctly and it was the only time I ever had a negative experience in this game and the decade I've been playing most of the time. No one cares. As long as we can get the content done. No one cares. And my bills have always worked for me for me to feel like I am immortal being able to solo content people need help with most of the time. That's why I play the mismer. It allows it's skill set to adapt to my needs. And ever since the chronomancer has released, I have loved the idea of buffing myself to immortality and I currently play a power virtuoso who is selfish was balloons like I have high up time all the bones for me except for alacrity because the only way I can generate that is through the signet of inspiration. So sometimes I get it and most of time I don't have it unless someone else is giving it to me. But I up the duration on all these bones and I feel like my only real weakness is if I was in PvP anybody with bone rip or Boone convert will destroy me. But in PVE I am a goddess myself to high heaven. Able to maintain max stacks of vulnerability and might with infinite fury and swiftness and quickness and I can generate pretty much stability and resilience on command. Oh with pretty much permanent upkeep on regeneration and protection and I can generate the aegis on command. The bill just does it for me😊

Loading screens are a non issue. WoW may be open but it's actually empty af.

Friend you need to focus on making legendary armor it seems meh i have ascended but its a OOO i want to try these stats these combos i promise its soooo much better once u get it.

I find it interesting that you asked why there are no new raids and then you answered the question in the next sentence by saying you wouldn't choose it over a strike 'in a million years'. And they take 'forever' and are difficult to complete.:)

E fellow underwater combat enjoyer! Really wish we got more encounters underwater

Guild Wars 2 is quickly starting to replace FFXIV as my prime mmo. What's really selling me on GW2 is the fact that the armor and weapons I grind for in GW2 don't immediately become irrelevant whenever the next expac drops like they do in FFXIV. When I look at my gear in FFXIV, I feel disappointed because I know that all the work I put in is ultimately pointless as that armor set will inevitably be obsolete. In GW2, all of the legendary weapons and armor are STILL top of thr line.

Currently ive made making 3 sets of legendary armor my goal lol. After that? Not entirely sure :p

Horizontal progression is the main thing that makes me 'quit' every now and then. Sometimes I specifically make a new character, just because of the verticality during leveling, armor being stronger, with better stats, new visuals to it, same with weapons. Once I reach 80, I feel stuck and glued in place in terms of progression, and at the same time it feels like I am placed on a different type of treadmill, which seems more collection oriented, rather than RPG-ish character development. I actually prefer vertical gear and spells progression, because it gives me the illusion of character growth. The system that GW2 utilizes seems stuck on a dead end in terms of strength gain at level 80 and everything shifts into mostly fashion and visuals, while my character remains the same, stats-wise, for years..

Are the bad clases balanced with the new Expansion or do they still suck?

I lowkey wish msg guild wars 2 had more players it a really good game if want to play the expansion story’s by yourself and a good mmo

Short answer: yes

15:06 I thought about it actually and I also noticed that WoW players often complain about how laggy the game is now. And I believe that is the reason. There is no loading screen meaning the maps are on one server, and it causes some issues: 1. when there are a lot of players logging in, even if they are on different maps, it feels laggy. 2. Bz doesn't have a mega server so far, so only the players within the servers/ link servers can see each other(unless you are in the same group? I heard you can teleport to the leader's map even if you are not in the same server), and it makes the world feels empty bc the population cap has been limited at the 1st place. GW2's loading screen means each map has its server so the capacity is bigger. Preach noticed it as well. He was amazed when there were 70-100 players doing the same meta event around him, and his setting didn't need to be lower, and he still feels the game was smooth, no issue. I started to think about the pros and cons of WoW maps and GW2 maps when Dragonflight was released. Bc I have to admit, I wish our griffon could fly across maps without interruption. How to connect the junctions of maps would be a big project, and how to deal with the map cap would be another difficulty. I heard Anet is working on a bigger cap of a map so the overflow map during meta can be reduced or removed. We might see more ppl around us doing the same bosses and no one would be left out due to disconnected or late arrival. But it would be even more difficult to achieve the seamless map junction.

downloading it rn cuz of the video thx

can confirm that it could run on a poop potato. asked my friend to play with me, she keeps telling me shes lagging through a month of gameplay. i asked her what she was using to play and she told me she was using an old chromebook w/ intel celeron.

There is also that each weapon type has a different set of attacks. I also love underwater combat. But the thing I love the most is that is massive and you can explore with anyone without feeling being a drag on no one. That's because your stats lower depending on the area you are in. So a level 80 player can still die on a level 20 zone. Overall, is a well done game. Just avoid crafting as is a money pit. Spent more money on the gem shop that I would want to admit.

didnt u release that video a few months ago? i like it anyways

I hope one day this game comes to console too

Legendary gear is the endgame... And you really missed out on the achievements of the game, seems not only on the video but also for yourself. Make the Astralaria achievement and appreciate the beauty and secret strength of GW2, that is bringing people together for all reasons possible. No other mmo makes the world as alive as gw2 and thus makes it the only real mmo remaining.

Loading screens !!! I feel yam but the server way of working is for each map and shard is opened when a map is full so that is why you dont have servers like in WOW. If we had open world we would have the server infrastructure same as WOW and other MMOs!

Yes

Solve loading screens with SSD. I have used HDDs for a very long time, but when I saw that a 500gb Samsung SSD was 28 bucks, I decided to stop being a boomer. Yes, it is a massive big difference. It even doubled my frame rate.

1:58 BROO let em know!!!

i had the same feeling in wvw couldnt play with my friends thats why i quit playing that mode unless if i still continue crafting legendary trinket but other than that its just bummer and boring to play :/

Tldr, yes

unlocking all Mounts, unlocking the abilities of the mounts, Mastery points u have just like 36 , WVW level and traits ??? !

As far as PVP is concerned, GW2 is the only MMORPG that has gotten it right for me.

YES

yeah the action camera its a nope dont use thrust dont use it turn it off

Short answer: FUCK YEAH!

Gw2 is anime ESO... anyways idk why they haven't bring this game to consoles yet.

Uploaded 13 hours ago and only 8 comments? Absurd! I just found this channel because I watch Mukluk, so it's probably no coincidence. I played tons of Gw2, and I agree with most of what you're saying. PvE, yes, great. But also, your advice on dropping Celestial is not the best. New players should keep Celestial until they've really learned the game. Also, certain builds (like Druid) work really well with Celestial. Also keep in mind that the devs build all content AROUND Exotic Celestial for this reason; even the toughest raids are made with Celestial in mind, because they expect most players to need a bit of everything to make it through. For PvP, my advice for new players is to play around on every class they can spend a character slot on, to understand how they work, and for them to realize that there WILL be a guy with 14k hours who will pop up in your lobby every 2-3 matches, and will make you eat dirt. Also abuse LoS and carry 1 CC, 1 Stun Break, and 1 movement option minimum. For Raids, IMHO they're innaccessible content for most players. Strikes fill the shoes of a raid, minus the adds. It's like a one-dip large boss battle, and that's what people want. I'd like to see raids, but I feel like that niche is covered by Fractals. Armor - yep, wonky on the meows. And I would argue that some of the best sets are made by the piece. The Cash Shop is the best way to handle financing for an MMO, IMHO. Gw2 does it right. Buying gold only solves tiny issues you may have, it doesn't buy you power in a way that's meaningful. Especially since 99% of players are in Exotic+ at level 80 and above. Also, the quality of life in this game has been amazing, and definitely better than WoW. Horizontal progress is shared among all your characters, and while horizontal progress doesn't feel as good as vertical, it can definitely fill the gap. Finding things to do is hard in Gw2, and you kinda need something to default to. It's hard to find long term goals, and you can't mindlessly grind dungeons or raids for gear because it's a no-brain decision. You have to actually know what you want, and that's why it's such a turn off for WoW players and the like.

GW2 is amazing. Endgame is subjetive ... some like to spent a life learning pressing ABCDE to the point that after that nothing more to do ... and others enjoy other things life offers.

In started a while ago

Smaller expansions, for the same price as larger expansion = More money for less work. That's about it.

Horizontal progression, "to some it's actually a positive"? I played WoW for years and GW2 isnt just a new chapter in a book of MMO's but a whole new book upon itself. All people I spoke from WoW who switched to GW2 told me a whole new world opened up to them. Just, when you start playing GW2, forget everything you know and think you know about MMO's and start exploring. No boosters, just watch your character evolve and learn to play it. "Just spamming dps" isn't quite the case without the support classes in your team. Healing and Cleansing is done in Strikes and/or WvW when you encounter other groups.

Well made video: most of videos of this type have a tendency to start good, just to mash together too many things or rush the more you go on, creating confusion and losing focus. You kept it consistent till the end, and boy it does show!

I don't think you showed a single raid in the raid part of the video.

WvW: "Can't play with my friends" - Srsly? A new account has a free server switch, exactly to address this issue.

I strongly dislike water combat because enemies can wander in from literally any direction and you don't have enough opportunity to even get good with the skills because water combat is barely used.

guildwars 2 is the type of game you go to when you need gaming itches to be scratched that other games just dont.

Unpopular opinion: the combat is good until you start looking under the hood and realize how limited it is and how little thought was actually put into it.

Woah woah woah don't shit on celestial. I use celestial for all content and I've never struggled to keep up once in fact I've never struggled to multi facet my build to help the people around me while still doing great damage.

1 sentence for this game amazing game , shit marketing team

"for races you have...a plant.." HAHA

I found Guild Wars 2 had better character creation than Final Fantasy hands down

I have 6 characters. All of them are charr

Is Guild Wars 2 Still Worth Playing in 2024? ...yes.

its advertisements are so ass i so sad. i wantto see a day when gw2 is just so full of players that meta events are constantly being run

played this back before the first expansion .... got my frostfang after ages of playing and loved the game ...till the expansion -_- the final dragon was made of salad and the expansion was all green leafy shit ..no thanks thought it was stupid and never went back

honestly id rather pay for a subscription instead of having to buy bank slots, bag slots and everything else that they label as ''convinience'' . I've never had such dumb common issues as space in any mmo ive ever played free or not so idk what ther excuse is.

Nope, not worth it this 2024, outdated. Anet just want your money. If you will report a players whos being disrespectful or harass you, they don't do shit. But if its about something that hurts their income like sending gold to friends or other players then they banned you with no further explanation. Take my advice guys look for other games or regret.

No. This game is not noob friendly at all. First of all, you get a boost for buying. If you use the boost, you're fucked for life. You'll never get 250 hero points, unless you do WvW ( boring) or run trains ( conditional). Secondly, unlocking flying is the worst thing in any video game in history. So, to summarize, hero specialization and flying, 2 of the most fun things about GW 2 are locked behind boring chores.

Furry opinions are generally invalid. But it was amusing to watch a furry say things like "human clothes on charr are ridiculous". Y-E-A-H, you don't say.

Chore wars 2
