i would also rate EoTN much lower, then PCG did ...
this add on isn't even 20% worth ...its imo one of the biggest disappointments of the whole game series, not forgetting, that this Add on should open us the gates to GW2 as GW veteran players...
- the freaking Add On wasn#t even really completed, when it was released, it was only like 50% complete junk, junk, that had cost as much as like a whole complete CAMPAIGN !!!, but the content was muhc lesser then an own Stand Alone Game... and worser, compared to what we could expect with new Campaigns ...
It was imo an absolute crap false decision, to kick GW Utopia for EoTN ...
The Hall of Monuments ius a joke. Its the biggest thing of the whole add on, what made out the big dissapointments together with certain other facts, like crap dungeon drops, crap balance for casual gamers and and and... the list is long
this add on was absolutely not its money worth !!!
I#ve for example expected, that the HoM is ONE big account wide feature and not, that this shit gets spkitted for every single character of our account...
WTF have we to collect hundreds of the same minipets, when collceting them all ONCE is ENOUGH WORK/EFFORT.
WTF collecting hundreds of the same odd destroyer Weapons, WTF buy for heroes hundreds of times elite armors, when it is ONCE enough per hero ...
this is all only absolute unneccessary Gold Sink³ ... and absolute annoying, nethe increases anyhow the factor of long term motivation, because it simple *ucks the players only off and annoys them, to repeat such unneccescary stuff douzens of times per character
When I put a Minipet into my HoM, then it should be shown in ALL Hom#s of my Characters... when I reached certain goals in the game, like beating the games, then the HoM-titles should be shown in all HoM's of my characters, becauses ist absolute *ucking regardless, with which character i made it..i made it for my Account, not for any special dumb character of my account !!!
Then when I have to make the effort to collect special items, only to be able to put statues of my heroes on a Monument, then are such slightly dumb things also disappointing, like when your heroes get shown then in their dumb non elite armors, instead of their elite-armors, which u've chosen for them, they should wear ...
The HoM has so much potential to solve certain other problems of the game, like pet stora,ge armor storage and so on...nothing of this simple solutions has been thought over for the HoM....
Lol ..HM for EoTN, weeks and months after EoTN has released, where the Add On, should have had "normally" the HM from the start on to be considered as "complete" ...
Alone the fact that anet sells us 50% complete junk surely don't makes the image of Anet better ...no, it worsens it and lets this firm look like, as if they don't care for their quality of their products they want to sell with the developer's philosophy "what we don't create successful now, can we still implement months after release, but before we do that, we can still sell our stuff as "complete" and sell our lie for big money"
EoTN is also one big disappoint cause of the so good promotioned 40 "new" armors, before release *cough* ...we they call reskins "new"...
But NAet has so or so a bad understandment of words ...
for them are even green weapons, that can have millions of players
"unique weapons" oO
such said unique weapoins, which use also weapon reskins -___-
For me an unique weapon is only unique, when it exists really only ONCE in the whole game and when it really looks like no other weapon in the WHOLE game ..
THAT's UNIQUE !!...
but the only thing in what Anet was unique succesful in with EotN, was in creating an unique disappointment !!
I really wished me, anet would have release a 4th Chapter instead of an Add On ... A next campaign, which would have brought another 2 new Classes, which would improve further the game by implementing another new weapon kinds and fight styles. an campaign ,which would then implement beneath the Dungeons further new gameplay systems maybe, like a Combo-System...
A campaign, which would bring another new continent, but jut without a dumb tutorial ...theres no need that a new campaign must have ever tutorials, only cause of implemented new classes, thats bullshit...
theres even no need for tutorials at all, wtf gives it for this manuals, that can describe everything and the rest learns the player alone by just playing the game, making quests that automatically explain stuff by normal playing, while playing and doing things.
A shit personally on such crap add ons like EoTN, when we miss through such stuff then 2 new awesome possible classes, like the Chronomancer and the Corsair or whatever (Bard and so on, which would be absolutely alone more innovative, then the whole EoTN itself ....
Imo EoTn and the plans on GW2 are too rushed ...
