(yeah, this game is not only surprisingly still alive, but it is experiencing a large uptick in the playerbase. the expansion released a few months (End of Dragons) ago also being well-received)

I'm trying to get back into the game but the initial hurdles of "get enough HP to make a cool spec functional" and "redo your entire gear set into the optimal one" are still pretty painful

I have a mostly functional wvw scrapper with another pve loadout, and with EoD's level boost i picked guardian for firebrand shenanigans which gave me celestial... which is alright for now but i still need some accessories. I don't have all the living worlds so my access to the usual stuff is pretty spotty... plus i also find questing and exploring to be aspects of the game i don't like very much. if i could keep to open world zergfests and wvw zergfests that'd be great but my faction right now is doing very poorly

also maybe i shouldn't have picked firebrand to focus in on for my level skip because i mostly dislike the engineers kits and tomes are similar, but too late now lmao. my couple of guild wvw zerg sessions as medkit scrapper were AWESOME (even if all i really functionally added to the table was stealth and swiftness.....)

once I get my firebrand in working order I might try out the new engie spec because I have a huge awkward love for summons (my other 3 characters are ranger, necro, and mesmer....)

liked the original and all it's expansion didn't like guild wars 2 as much ( mostly of that was because 2 killed off the original that a liked)

this guild wars 2 song is nice though

Having a goal is good, but don't let your goal depress you. Goals are meant to inspire.

GW2 is too repetitive and not flexible with builds like GW1 was (having secondary classes was amazing and they dropped it). I tried it again a couple years ago, even bought the expansions because mounts, didn't change my opinion that they mostly went with the traditional MMORPG checklist but it does have its moments.

Never played it. Only heard bad things about it, like it's more of a WoW sequel than a GW sequel. I've been playing GW1 again lately though. GW1 also had a big uptick in players recently.

That's cool to hear, I've been considering getting back into GW1. Used to absolutely love PvP.

finished End of Dragons and did most of the casual endgame stuff. surprisingly good story despite the fact that i utterly glazed over base game and early HoT/PoF story (which I only did to unlock zones). ending sequence is a lesbian kiss and proposal between Kasmeer and Marjory which is awesome as hell for the literal last thing you see in this game's first big arc

2 in general has pretty nice music, kind of an in-between of ffxiv's absolutely baller music and wow's nonexistent music

this is a track i really liked from season 1, which was before the first expansion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jC1xopc4TXs

End of Dragons has had incredibly good ambient music overall

level cap's still the same as the base game a decade ago, and equipment from back then is just as good as right now! i don't even know how you could make a wow clone function without the gear treadmill
