Same here. I did all the stuff needed in the other two chapters two (even Vizunah on a couple of characters). It isn't as noticeable if you are having fun. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if there was more variety.

Not expecting every mission to be completely new but a little variety is what I appreciate. Games should evolve. Using exploding kegs in North Shiverpeaks, teleporters in the Crystal Desert, going undercover and the wurms in Nightfall are good examples off the top of my head. Knowing the big update is coming also has me putting off doing anything overly important in case something big changes.

The reason I am posting is to voice my opinion and read the posts of others that can make a meaningful post. Guild Wars is probably the best game I have played so I don't want to see it turn into a game that I can't play.

Can we stick to posts pertaining to the posters' reasons for why they are/aren't bored so the thread can have more meaningful replies.

For those that are offering suggestions ...for me anyways:
1) I am not looking for suggestions to improve the game by making artificial restrictions etc. If you are honestly trying to help people ... thank you.
2) I only get to play about an hour a week if I am lucky because of college/work/family/friends so I am not burned out as that seems to be a popular hypothesis from some.
3) I warp around the game world and do different things all the time.
4) I want GW to be the best game it can be, and it almost was before.
5) I don't PvP as it is not my thing. I want story and quests and variety in everything.
6) I think reading a couple pages of this thread to get an idea of the opinions expressed is a good thing that will help keep this thread on track.

If you can't express yourself in an informative way (or at least attempt it) I have the uncanny ability to ignore your post.

Thanks for the on-topic post. It appears that most of the trolls and flamers have been either banned or had their posts deleted.

For me, farming is what I used to do when I had done everything else. The inscription system and the new AI have taken the fun out of that. I didn't farm for money but rather for the thrill of getting an ultra-rare item with a 15^50 mod on it. Any item can have that now. I'm like you and don't care for PvP, and there's just nothing left to shoot for in PvE anymore. I farmed countless Storm Bows before finally getting one that was req.8 15^50 but now I can make any item 15^50. Req. is not important to me for an item I plan on using myself, not to mention the fact that everything is req.9 now.

YES ! Im bored as Hell.
I got nothing to do in this game more.

Not in PvE: just completed NF with 4 charracters - and its boring, everything is so predictable. Quests suck. No normal farming, chestrunning. No auction. Greedy people. With NF, GW PVE IS NOT MMORPG anymore. its single player RPG and is BAD single player RPG. If u want RPG go and play obvilion.

Not in PvP: Its really boring to run tha same builds over avd over. New NF skills ?
Guys, to tell the truth like 40% (may be more) of the skills are useless. The skills that r ok, will be nerfed through some time. HA ? - same situation. With heroes its like Q3 deathmatch 1 on 1. U really enjoy it like 30 mins of playing, not more.


GW is not fun anymore. And so, like 10 mins ago i left GW. Deleted all charracters ( btw FoW armor not salvaging to ectos ) gave all money and treasures to guildmembers and uninstalled game. It's my final post here. cya all.

actually, I think the NF story is a good deal better done than Oblivion

I have completed NF three times so far, probably going to do it a 4th time. I know quite a lot of people who claim they are bored of grinding and how it was all better in the last MMO they played... until I ask them what was different there, and the answer usually is "mobs are stupid, its easier", at which point I am laughing

I think its impossible for a game to be both somewhat challenging, and also enjoyable for the masses its kind of mutually exclusive.

Sounds like someones didnt get the toys they wanted. Auction house is a ways off, we'll have to be patient on that, but as to the other stuff, Id find farming boring. Just killing mobs for certain items that youre lucky to get a drop of? What about the other stuff they drop? Does that just get left? If I have room, and it looks like itll merch well, Ill pick up whatever I can. I cant understand how people who complain about "grind" will farm, when it seems to be almost the same thing.
We couldve also used more detail on why its boring, than what was given.

Hmm...I think it is important to reference something.

For one, there are 2 types of people on this thread. One of them is bored, and the other is angry. Maybe some are a combination of both, like I was. But usually it is not the case.

Ok, well how did I draw this conclusion. Well, here is an example of a bored person:

This is why I divided it this way. The first player is bored, because they acknowledge the lack of things to do. They desire more significant change, and are like me disinterested in this "double or triple bs" Anet throws at us.

The 2nd is angry. Why? Because they are complaining about AI. So, technically they still think they can be entertained, if a minor change was implemented (the melee AI reverted). This person is not bored, they know exactly what they want in order to be satisfied with this game.


The 3rd is both obviously, I think the post is pretty self explanatory though. .Guys, I was on the brink of this stage, but ceartain forces held me back. I am not of course actively playing anymore, but I do check everyday and see if something will change. It will not...but its sorta like a little kid checking his mail-box everyday to see if his spankin new and jam packed comic book issue will come out. This comic book though does not say Guild Wars Repition of 1, 2 ,3 "Vengeance", it says "Guild Wars 2"

I'm sorry, but what kind of retarted logic is that? It's not fair to the people that don't farm? Of-freaking-course it's not. They don't farm, and they don't get money.

"OMG ITS NOT FAIR, I DONT GET WISDOM TITLE BECAUSE I NEVER IDENTIFY ANYTHING." Worst argument ever. If you chose to farm, then you'd get money. Some people do, some people don't.



@Lacasner- I'd fall into that 3rd grouping

Yup, I'm definately belonging to the third category, too. Was bored fast, continued to play for the sake of my guild, now I'm both, bored and angry. I'm still not that far to delete my account (if I ever get that far I'll sell my stuff, if you leave and know you won't come back, you don't care about eulas anymore, too. At least you get some refund. But, to be honest, it takes much more to get me there ^^). I simply stopped playing, waiting for updates.

@Sidra I don't know if it's just me, but I found some irony in Zedd Kun's post. "Some have fun doing something, others don't do it. So nerf the funpart so that nobody has anything to enjoy anymore and all are equal then" ^^

Basically he is right. That's why many "fear" the ANetpatches, as they regularly nerf just everything that got to much players addicted to it.

I hate to say it but factions was better than nightfall! Sure nightfall has a better story and stuff, but the missions are just plain boring! Were in factions they were fast and furious! Like Vizunah Square, i hate it but at the same time love it Its just a mad mission! Nightfall has no replayability for me, there is just something missing from it, but i don't know what... bar the missions

to be honest GW is the only game i ever got into. since ~15 mounths i have 2500 hours loged in, and that while goin to school and working and having a social life. i have a character of every core class, and a baby dervish and rit waiting for their turns. of curse i have all that nice equipment and oh so many armors...

My ranger already completed NF and now, ive been taking my 2nd character through NF (my monk). the thing is that i loved it the first time, but the second time its just so dull and boring... i go there ONLY if the whole guild is doin something else and im bored. I dont know if i will be taking all my toons through it or no...

about all the changes:

AI change: to be honest, now while tanking or monking i get nothing but irritated because the monsters just run around like crazy. its not hard to kill them, being an experienced GW player i can easily protect my team or heal them as much as its needed. but its just irritating chasing monsters in circles!!! grrrr

also, a person that i used to spend 80% of my GW time with (we became good friends, maby even more), is rage quitting GW because of that AI change. i dont know how much longuer till i get completely bored with GW

-i never liked solo farming (i farm, but in company)
-since chest nurf its not worth as much to go on chest runs cuz i already got 10 purple wands in a row
-HA is ruined
-AB are getting boring after more then 30 mins

honestly, if i didnt have such awsome guildies i wouldnt be playing anymore

Well, given her penchant (not even calling her out this time, that's a record for me) of only replying to minor issues that don't tend to flame Arenanet so much, or light fluffy threads saying "woo! have my babies!" I really don't think she'll touch this. Anything she says would probably either:

A. Cause mass rage-quitting because she says something that sets it TOO straight for some of us, and we just don't like it.

B. Causs weird, mass-speculations on the future of GW games and whether or not to keep playing the series

C. Please people.

And these are ranked in probability from highest to lowest.

Indeed... It's EXCACTLY how you said it. Normally, i'd be doing a mission, after that some farming, chest runs, then another mission etc...

But now we're forced to do missions/quests all the time, since there's nothing else left to do. We're forced to work on the storyline, and that makes it so darned boring to do something twice.

Except for the last mission, the missions are a bit boring as well. Even though the storyline in Factions sucked, we had constant action. Monsters were everywhere, and popped up from here and there. In Nightfall it's just killing small groups of 5-7 monsters over and over again. And every battle takes about 3 minutes because nobody's really fighting but it's just a dangerous version of 'tag'.

I am sure "eating themselves to death" is in a lower level of intelligent
maybe your are asking for godly timing of interupt??

Actualy I feel bore almost everytime when I play more then 3 hours, but that happen to almost everygame I played more then 1 year.
Pluse, I realy cant complain about that when the game itself is telling me "get some rest" every hour~

i agree. nightfall lacks the human element and since anet has nerfed the game to the point that all activities outside of actual missions and quests have become totally unrewarding, the game has become sterile.

one of my favorite online gaming moments is flying a plane in battlefield 1942 - barnstorming underneath a bridge in one of the official maps. anet would have nerfed this as it had no bearing to mission objectives whatsoever and in a way griefed the team but digital illusions never saw reason to since its what made the game fun and was one reason why people scampered to be on a plane first but then again i digress ....

sad isn't it, she immediately replied after 25 posts to a "Thank You" thread and yet this one has already gone over 600 ... it's like "Waiting for Godot".

seriously though, out of decency, they should have set the record straight by now.

Lets be honest about this
what can she say that wont turn in to flame bait??
Doesnt matter which side she take, if she answer, a war is waiting to start.

She can only do things with in her power, contraling human mind cleaerly arent in the list And I dont think changing Dev's schedule is in the list too

The best she can do is, "I will pass this to the Dev team"
but we already know they are making elite missions, winterday event is also coming up, the AI is still toning, the Hero is here to stay, and so on....so what more I wonder

But I am no GG, maybe she can think of something

The reason i want to hear if they are going to fix the ai or not is simple..

If they are not going to fix anything. then i will stop playing and give all my crap to some of my guildies that are going to keep going..

If they do say they are going to change some aspects of the ai.. i will stick around and see if the changes suit my fancy.

I mean all i want to do is see if i should continue playing or not... I love this game.. but the ai is not changing then i am done.. and i need word of that before i make a decision




Either way them saying somthing is better than them not saying anything at all..
i wish they would just say. no we wont change.. or yes we will change...

Its not that hard to do.. and i feel its the least they could do seeings how some of the people here have purchased all three of the gw games.

It's really pretty comical that ANet responds to a post kissing their ass, but they don't have the coconuts to say anything at all in this massive thread. Set the Rockstar and Hot Pockets aside and tell us something for crying out loud.

Why is this thread even allowed open? Flames flames everywhere! People yelling at Anet and people yelling at each other. How was this thread at all constructive as some of you are claiming?

And when anyone disagrees, they are flamed to death by everyone or told to get the f--- away from the thread. So guess what? Anet is going to do just that. They are going to stay far away from this thread.

How many of you honestly thought that calling Anet names will get you a helpful response? Or even any response? No one deserves this kind of abuse. I'd say Gaile is showing class by not responding in here because I'm sure there's just not anything good to say in here at this point.

Well, for starters Gaile, or any other dev could tell us A-net's stance on farming. I believe that in the past they said that they had no problems with farming, yet they nerf it into the ground. What A-net's saying and doing are 2 different things.

Also, it's nice to know what's going to happen, one of the less good things about A-net is that some things come totally unexpected. Sure, the update was a good surprise to some, but for me, and others, it meant chaos. I was in the MIDDLE of doing something, planned it all out, if it was going as planned, I'd have all the guild traders in my guild now, and maybe a nice FoW armor.

But no, I wake up on a sunny day, get something to drink, get on GW and see that everything is screwed over.

Anyway, if a dev/Gaile reads this: Please tell me what your stances are on farming, and what will happen in the future.

And when anyone disagrees, they are flamed to death by everyone or told to get the f--- away from the thread. So guess what? Anet is going to do just that. They are going to stay far away from this thread.

How many of you honestly thought that calling Anet names will get you a helpful response? Or even any response? No one deserves this kind of abuse. I'd say Gaile is showing class by not responding in here because I'm sure there's just not anything good to say in here at this point.
Please provide a quote when someone actually chewed someones ass when they made a good valide point about why they are not bored.. you will be searching for a while though...
=============================


also I posted in that "happy" thread saying that i feel its a total insult for reps to respond in that chat.. and not to respond in this one.. my post although non flaming and respectfull.. was deleted promply.. and for this post i will either be banned or recieve a threatening pm..

we payed just as much and played just as long.. so just because we dont share the same sunshine on everything views we dont get equal representation...

No one cares.. but this is the last nc soft/anet associated product that i will ever buy..

Like i said in that other thread. Some people in here have some real valid questions that anet could easily clear up. and no matter what side you are on... regardless of your opinion.. anet has totally disrespected you by not even saying a thing in these threads..

And if you think i should just stop playing.. than your right.. but i cannot do that untill anet says they will never change the ai.. so just a word from a rep
and all the people on here that dont agree with your sunshine will probably be gone

I'd love to see Gaile post here, but I'm pretty sure she'd regret it. No matter what she said she would get jumped on unless she said, "OK guys, you can go back to farming now, we changed the AI back to the way it was." It's almost as if some here think that Gaile's posting here would validate their opinions. Trust me guys you know she's reading every line. I just don't think there's anything she can say that would improve anyone's attitude toward the current ai. If Gaile had the news you wanted to hear, she would have posted it by now.

Personally, the fact that she hasn't posted here tells me as much as if she had. And that is-- Anet doesn't have a plan in the works to change the current ai.

I'm not bored with the game, but I definitely want the AI changed. I liked it the way it was. How about a compromise? Make the enemy warriors stop kiting and stop the monks from heading for the hills and most here would probably be satisfied.

NOTE: This thread has become sort of "Narutoscryed's Guild Wars Blog" Not that I'm complaining he posts an entertaining read every now and then. Also I can't wait for this page to get filled as even on a 19" screen, I have to side scroll to read all of someone's post.

EDIT: I realize it's because of the huge pic.

Trvth that's cause Nartuo has that big picture up there.

Also I think that person up there pretty much stated Anets, answer. They will disagree with why we are bored and won't fix the AI. They aren't going to change it, what they might do is fix the bugs because only a lackluster company would leave them the way they are. So if you're not satisfied with the AI - the bugs, then stop playing cause I doubt it will change.
