Alpha/Beta Guild Wars and Guild Wars now are almost like two different games one could say. Many things (as beta players remember) have been removed; Sure some were for a good reasons, but others were not. So this is the point of my thread, why can't anet bring back the old harlmess beta things? Such as the weapons that they've removed (Not talking about HOD items, I'm talking about the graphics) and customization. They've removed faces and haircuts of professions that would've only added to the customability, and even more so they removed beards. (Which are vital to Elemantists to achieve the wizard look!)

Beards


Faces




Pets


This one has.. Armor/Face/Hair/Shield


Monsters


These are only a sample, I want to retain the length of my post.

That pet is a lynx, they are found in Kryta (unless you are refering to the color...)

The Mesmer in the first pick has Dunham's Armor O.O I would kill for Dunham's armor.

I really like the male necro in the fourth pic, very cool face. I like the way he stands up straight too.

No one mentioned that the warriors in the last too picks are skinnier than what we have now.

Glad they got rid of the stupid bib-capes, I hated them.

And as for the last pick (as if this post had any order whatsoever) it's just a generatic drake, looks a little too 'WOWzers' to me

Yes, I was refering to the color. Its a bit more like a Snow cat...thing. Anyways I likde the Drake because it was textured differently and look how big it is.

Looks like they removed the faces for a reason. They're pretty bad, especially the middle one.

Yeah but look at the faces in Factions.. They're ALL pretty bad, but people use em'... So that means some people like them, which means bad faces are welcome.

You win the internet.

Hopefully anet will let some of these things return in future chapters, probably as a marketing decision, but It would be nice to have some of those...Id hate to have to remake my ele for a beard though :-\
