Guild Wars 2 will be coming out soon and I am 100 % sure on getting it. However, I feel like sharing my current worries about the game - I'm choosing Escapist due to the probable lack of GW enthusiasts who're not blinded by new graphics, events and jumping.
Event System: This new system should be able to keep GW2 dynamic and exciting all the time. It sounds really cool, you?d be able to get new gear and skills and stuff like that. However, I would like to know what happens if a giant monster attacks a city. What would all the low levels in the city do? What happens if you lose? And what happens if a new player runs off and do something that would cause more trouble?
I like this idea, but if it?s not done in a proper way then it? crap, because then all the newbies would die, or a city with a certain armor you liked would get ?disabled?, and of course the flaming if something answers my last question.
Next up I worried about the racial skills. The problem with games like World of Warcraft is that some races were better to do some tasks better than others. This made a lot of people mad because they were unable to anything, and had to redo the ?entire? game as another race.
By implanting racial skills, some races will for example be better at healing because one of their skills boosts healing, or some would do better damage because they their racial skills were imbalanced ? I do not want this to happen.
I?m not here to QQ, but I really want to avoid spending a lot of hours just to find out that I have to do it again.
If these things are not balanced properly (and so far, A-net isn?t really popular for their balancing skills <.<), they are going to be crap, and I fear that it will lower the game?s overall value.
Please discuss. And you are more than welcome to prove me wrong in every of my statements, as I really want to get rid of these worries and continue to look forward for GW2!
