Hmm yes if only Anet had implemented a really hard 10-man PvE zone...

I look forward to more content dying because they put everyone to work on rushing out another lovely expansion too early. Honestly everyone deserves this game dying after making fun of SAB. RIP you beautiful angel.

Does Anet even have any employees anymore? Or is it just a bot that periodically marks off parts of the games that will be put on indefinite hiatus? I mean, I assume Tivac still has a job, but how much longer till we're told that the trading post is being dropped in favor of a more living and dynamic world? I guess Tivac's only hope is to practice 3d modelling to make some outfits or practice palette swapping the same wings we've been seeing on the gem store.

It's even funnier to read Mike O'Brien take issue with accusations that they shipped half an expansion.

Same old same old In the end it depends if they can pull off the stuff they've said they're working on. If WvW stops being lovely, LS3 is good, and they unfuck the stupid time requirements to get anything done in HoT I'll be pretty happy with things and okay with the $50 pricetag.

WHAT!?!?? ANet announced a new feature, delivered a small portion of what they promised, and then shitcanned it forever?!? You're Kidding!!!! How completely atypical!!! How unexpected! How *bursts into tears*. Kerrrrrrr posted:It's a decent amount of stuff for an MMO expac, I've seen worse (WoD), but it shouldn't have been 50 fuckin' dollars. Think of what you earned for that difference though. You've learned to never give this company money ever again. You can't put a price on knowledge.

I feel like this really shouldn't surprise me but it still does. Not that they're short changing us for the thousandth time, but that they're being mostly upfront about it instead of quietly sweeping it under the carpet.

Or they could put more people on it and finish it faster since I'm guessing legendaries are less intense to make than LS3. Awwww we understaffed something and now its failing well better pull the plug

part of me kind of wants to make a joke about this, but i don't even really know if i'd be able to come up with anything. i was actually looking forward to the new legendaries to see if there was anything i'd want to eventually work towards. but uh if they can't spare people to make weapons and making new sets or armor is apparently too much work, then...what are they doing, exactly?

Probably feel like the living story update will be the next thing to get people back into the game, so prioritizing that. I can understand it, it's not like someone who quit is going to come back to grind to a legendary. Well, they shouldn't anyway.

Arenanet and their game is a literal joke at this point. I had hoped that maybe Colin leaving would mean some of the dodgy stuff that's been happening might be over, but he's not exactly giving me much hope.

I'm betting the issue with legendaries is the precursor collection stuff which has been a huge poo poo show since it was released and it was no doubt one of Colin's half thought out ideas.

Making new content for the CASUAL majority is a good thing instead of this retarded grind legendary garbage. Now they need to make this retroactive and strip everyone of their legendaries especially arus.

What's he done since he took over? Is this his first announcement? Because holy poo poo if the first thing we get from him is "hey, we're cancelling one of our selling points for the expansion" off the back of a game that's absolutely tanking in quality already, you'll have to forgive me for having negative amounts of hope for what he can do. Maybe Colin left him in the shitter and this is him turning it around, but at this point I do not trust Anet to deliver anything at all. The only people who've proved themselves capable of producing anything good lately are the raid team. LS1 and 2 and HoT ranged from garbage up to the lofty quality heights of incredibly mediocre, so I'm really, really, really not optimistic about what the extra six people are going to accomplish. I'd rather have some legendaries to at least make my foes a little prettier.

And yeah, I am pretty pissed that they're cancelling legendaries, I was kind of looking forward to potentially having some new interesting weapons. Right now this poo poo feels like the straw breaking my camel's back for a comically disastrous three years. Maybe the being pissed off here is clouding my judgement but since 2012 they've done a tiny number of things that are actually good and I still want to like this game so badly.

Maybe we'll get some legendaries then.

I agree with Cletus, looking at this in a bubble, legendary weapons are a casual unfriendly grindfest and if they're trying to make GW2 more casual friendly this makes sense. Maybe this is exactly why Colin left, because he was mis-allocating resources. But in the context of HoT, lmao what the gently caress Anet, this was a big selling point for some people e: don't even loving get me started on esports/spvp, how do we have so few maps and one game mode after 3.5 years e2: vvvv what modes other than conquest are in ranked?
