i love their love for their own world..=), a lot of producers seem to have lost that feeling for their creation, or never had it at all...

[JoeyGinorio]

@Crystalballer274 They've been saying it as long as anyone else, and as far as we all know, they are the only MMO with a personalized storyline to the extent they have. I think they have the right to say they're putting the RPG back in MMORPG

@MaMastoast you know what? i'd rather fear a player because he is really skilled rather than fearing a player jus cause he is higher lvl or has better equip...why? becasue a noob can have both higher lvl and get GODlike gear, but only a skilled player(pro) can have skill :)

[MaMastoast]

@droidgod3 This has nothing to do with me wanting to appear "pro" its about the having a much more rewarding feeling getting powerful in a dangerous world. It's about having a feeling of actual war between factions, it's about people who are higher levelved actually being feared by those weaker.

[droidgod3]

@MaMastoast any idiotic noob can pwn a person who is much lower lvl or lower geared... so while i know that such fights excite some section of the crowd...its rather pointless and really shows no skill. If the only difference b/w players is how they use their brain and how well they know and use their class; then we can see the difference between n00bs and pros...

[MaMastoast]

@MaMastoast thats part of whats great about an open world, where gaining power si actually gaining power. Gaining power only to have it be useless in areas where everything isnt matched to your power, makes the power absolutely worthless.

[MaMastoast]

@BlazeHerr Wuaw, aggressive much? geez. First of all, I use the word "work" in the same sense you'd say "work your way up the rank", doesn't mean work work, just means having to earn higher levels of say, gear. I happen to enjoy process of becoming more powerful and getting better, that process is pointless if level is not a constant factor. Progression is the nr 1 thing in rpg's so taking that out is terrible. And I never said I wanted to harass people I said I wante dto be able to, because

[BlazeHerr]

@MaMastoast Why should people have to WORK when playing a game? Obviously, GW2 isn't for you if you define playing a game as work. ArenaNet is trying to make something new, something that doesn't involve players doing things they don't want to do. They don't want endless grind, which you call "work". If players want to play, they get to. Thats what it should be about, and always should be about. Also, you're a douche if you want to harass people. Don't buy this game please.

[MaMastoast]

@BlazeHerr but you SHOULD have to work for the good stuff, and you SHOULD be able to harass people when you're high level, I think thats part of the fun, to avoid high level people when leveling aswell

[BlazeHerr]

@MaMastoast Yeah, but, I'd rather replay content with my favorite character without just 1 shotting. I also would prefer not having a bunch of douche bags 1 shot every Dynamic Event when I'm on a new character. Works better with the sclaing imo. Also works both ways, so people don't have to grind to get to the good stuff.

[MaMastoast]

Im REALLY not a fan of scaling your levle up and down, I honestly think thats BS :/
