Yes, but can you ask yourself a question, why is this? Why some other games don't need to do this?



In a very, very different situation, as you should know.

When I started playing LOTRO,...

GW2 players make lots of videos. If you struggle with some achievement, or you want to learn some raid or fractal, most of times you watch a video about the subject. Now I want to link here a half...

No, I was not sarcastic. Really, something has gone wrong really badly, and I have some thoughts, what. Individuals do great job, but as a game company Turbine/SSG has always lacked long term visions...

Yes, and I am not suggesting it in this thread. I just wanted to clarify certain things, which were referred in this thread using GW2 as an example.



We have discussed this same subject few...

I remember that well: because of stat bloat. When Turbine was not increasing character levels, it was increasing item levels. When LOTRO was staying at level 100, the idea to force players to buy new...

I have played both lotro and GW2. I am pretty familiar with the issues in both games. The forums look the same if you don't have the perspective to the games - in every game, people keep moaning,...

A small update what is happening at GW2 front.

I recently completed some deeds on Heart of Thorns maps and I was very pleased to see, that even that the maps are old, there are still enough people...

Once upon a time (like 5 years ago or so) I suggested all sorts of ideas how to make lotro a better game. The reception was quite mixed, some liked them, some didn't. And I bet that if I say, that...

This is pretty much how GW2 does it. In lower level landscape regions and dungeons, higher level players are downscaled to appropriate level. However, the rewards are still your actual level. That...

The reason for this is the "brute force" approach Turbine/SSG has chosen and followed over a decade. I call it "Scorched Earth" strategy. For reason or another, Turbine/SSG management have decided to...

Guild Wars 2 is now nine years old:

GW2 is preparing for its third major expansion, End of Dragons coming out February...

You can stop searching. Such thing has never existed. In military context, fights have tried to be resolved with weapons of highest possible range, that is, in ancient times: bows -> slings ->...

This is IMO better approach, for players at least. It requires some long term vision, design and planning from the company side.



This approach suits very well to PvP side, but it is not...

It is very rare that GW2 is down. In fact, it is so rare, that it has happened only once (May 11, 2020) during all of my 3-4 years playing, and it is so rare that it is worth for devs to write an...

GW2 just received quite ground-breaking quality-of-life improvement, Legendary Armoury:

If you ever want to give GW2 a try, or if you have some toons already there, now is the time to log in once a week you really don't want to miss!

GW2 continues its returning series to earlier...

I updated the first for posts to reflect better to current situation.

Also, for your information, there is currently a longer special event running. This event takes players back to the events...

Others have pointed out that past catch up mechanisms were usually introduced after new cap. This:



...This was introduced when Throne still was end game content, and this change made me...

Commenting in bit different order:



I agree with you here.



This is likely what is going to happen, although Beorn started a class which took lots of time to find its place amongst the...

I here fully agree with you. The more classes and their trait lines you have, the harder it is to balance them. With new class, the total amount of trait lines rises to 33.



Offtopic: I...

Not the only, but one of the main reasons I stopped playing is this "Scorched Earth" strategy they follow. I don't feel like I get new content at each update, instead I feel like I am loosing...

My favorite games are such that when I first meet the increased challenge, I am like 'watta phuck, they cant be serious'. Once I beat the challenge, I like to think that phew, that was really hard,...

When playing games, I am inclined to increase and practise my understanding of game mechanics, to face and beat ever-increasing challenges the game can provide, be them PvE or PvP, solo or group...

There is a reason for that struggling. Honestly, they should have tried to turn the boat long, long time ago, but still - if you are suffering, forced to make hard decisions all the way down, do you...

I disagree. Lotro's lore is absolutely strongest in the market. The potential player base is just enourmos. It is totally different to fight against Sauron with Elrond and Aragorn at your side, that...
