52:01 All of these complaints are solved after lvl 80 and you are able to play the living world story. They introduce a cast of characters that stick with you for every dlc and together you lead them through these journeys, you character even voice acts in season 2 onwards. This is what everyone is talking about when they say its good.
Geting a legendary by exchanging gems to gold is more p2selfcuck than p2w, nowadays you can get an ascended weapon (exactly the same stats as a legendary) within an hour of gameplay. The gem to gold conversion is so bad that it's literally pointless to spend your money to buy gold.
Yeah, that's what most people don't get. Gear isn't as relevant as in other mmos where the gear trendmill is the endgame (or korean mmos where you're always upgrading your gear and they have a risk of breaking). Gear in this game is a thing MOST players just get to ascended in the easiest way they can and are done with it. It makes you win as much as dunno, a story skip in FF14.
@@markup6394 but that’s not winning. I could be fully legendary and still get my ass handed by someone in full exotic because I’m bad at the game. Buying a legendary weapon by gem to gold exchange doesn’t help me win unless you define “winning” as “having a flashy weapon without playing the game for it”.
I think the reason for the lv10 story steps was done to stop abouse. We used to be able to do the first story part with lv 1 char and get a black lion key for 15-20 min of play. People were farming them for hours. after that they finaly made it so you can get the story reward once a week.
Hey Roze. I keybound my dodge to V (or if you're using a non US keyboard, pick a key right above the spacebar on your left hand side) and just press V and Spacebar together and 9/10 I can pull the jump dodge off flawlessly. I found it super helpful as I mainly WvW, but it's handy in PvE as well. And yes, as someone in your chat said, Muk is in the Mistlock area which has a weird gravity that made him jump higher than normal while doing that. I'm not sure how I ended up on this vid but I thoroughly enjoyed it and subbing for more reactceptions lol
1:08:00 Morgan's Spiral and Dark Reverie were some of the first JPs I was brought to in the game. Dark Reverie is extremely brutal for someone with barely any experience in the game's controls. There are thankfully many way less punishing ones in the game.
You used to be able to start the main story right out of the tutorial. The thing is it got changed to level 10 because the level 10 story when done you get a Black Lion Key (gemstore item) to use on the in game chest to possibly get unique items. So, what happened is that people farmed this key (playing human/common at char creation) and it only took 8 min. (give or take) to do so and people would be around level 5 when they finished the level 10 story and have that key delete said char and rinse and repeat. Then they changed it to you have to be level 10 and changed it again to where now it's a once a week item you can get but they never returned it back to where you could start the story right off the tutorial.
I was going to say what @nobody89 said. I will add, with the level 10 story key being limited to once a week, there is no reason to not have it go back to the old way of doing the story.
@@Niyack This. I understand the key-thing though its still stupid... Anet just wants to sell you keys themselves and only gives one for free (okay, granted, there are more later) to get you hooked...
Story quests used to be not level gated, but last level 10, 1st level 40 and 60 quests give you black lion chest keys and people farmed them. So they 1st limited level 10 quest to give key only once per week, but people where doing level 40 with level 20 character so they introduced level gating story quests to slow down farming keys.
i love the 1 hour mark, the whole jumping puzzle part is fantastic also imo, it's not the difficulty of the clocktower that's an issue, it's the damn wait timer that grinds you into a mush of pure rage and salt. not even bhop, surf, or kz creators/modders of source games has that audacity to make you wait.
I personally love the leveling in GW2 - especially the exploration aspect - love finding hidden things, jump puzzles, events, and hearts. My completionist heart skips a beat every time my maps get fully completed.
sylvari "dream" isn't really a dream, more of a collective unconsciousness which gives them basic knowledge about the world before they'll leave the pod
The halloween clocktower was a nightmare for me too, until I got to the end for the first time: after that it somehow becomes extremely feasible! it just took more than a hundred tries 😅
Now, I'm sure that many people have told you that already, but at the launch of the game, the tutorial bosses did actually quite a lot of damage. But their metrics showed that too many players quit, so with a New Player Experience™ patch, the nerfed all of them.
I love the leveling in GW2 so much I actively delete level 80s just to remake them identically and get a fresh perspective on them That said I do not love the base story, just the actual progression
To add to your comment about 5:46 about not being forced to play every day to keep up progression being a plus....I've played GW2 as my main mmo since the game was about 9-10 months old and I didn't even start crafting or doing a fractal or dungeon until at least 6-7 years in. I only really sPvP and WvWed and really still only do. When I went to do world completion 2 years ago to make 2 Legendaries on my most world completed character(my human thief)I had about 15% world completion. I actually took a 4-5 month break when Classic wow came back and when I got bored with that I went back to GW2 and felt like I didn't really miss out on anything other than some drama stuff probably. And if I was a pve player I'm sure I'd have had the same reaction when I came back. You don't go back in any way when you take breaks. If anything you come back to some new positive things. How I used to level my new characters before I had stacks of leveling tomes and level 60 level scrolls I'd go into the WvW like game mode called Edge of the Mists(where like all the pvp modes you're upleveled to 80)and zerg battle and power level that way. It was a fun way to learn the profession if you were new to it, also. Years back the xp was neutered so it died out and it's only been used for guild vs guild fights since. It was also super fun to CC people off the map since it's a map in the clouds and has a ton of spots where ppl can be pushed, feared, knockbacked etc off the map. Sometimes you could take out a ton in one shot. Fun times. The first time I leveled by doing the personal story which is how I got 15% map comp I think. Haha. I hope you keep enjoying GW2. The more content creators we have for the game making it look good the more healthy the game will be. It's one thing still today not enough games understand about content creators playing their games. Even if they're being critical but still playing it that's a good thing.
Clock Tower is a pain until you figure it out the first time and then after that it's pretty much muscle memory ( from failing and attempting so much. . ..) but even different than the Not So Secret Jumping Puzzle and Tears, the Skipping Stones JP is the one that I just hate so much because of how the first 200% of it functions. . .
I never watched a reaction video about someone reacting, even tho its a thing nowadays, but damn was is fun to watch. Your content make a terrible day, a worth one
Reegarding names, I am lucky enough that my large & in charge Norn lady has retained her name; I can only assume the devs appreciate the pun; she's called Magnificent Chest.
Your pay to win point is a fair point I think, that being said, in the example used (buying a legendary weapon) one could argue that obtaining it is not winning. Or that paying in order to avoid playing the game to get said item is actually self-defeating because you pay to not play the game you are playing.
I'd say GW2 is NOT p2w, because you win absolutely nothing by spending money lol. Anything you get in game using your skills, can be done by someone not spending a penny. You can also get EVERYTHING from the store by farming gold ingame and not spending a penny. Even the best QoL items that are "game changing", they are just really convenient and don't lock players that dont pay from any system or item in the game. I have almost all QoL items / storage expansion etc bought only with ingame gold, with the exception of the gems I got when pre-ordering the last expac (which were enough to buy 2 or 3 QoL items from the 20+ I have).
Sorry, im commenting while watching the video lol. You CAN get gold as a casual though. lots of gold farms to run, some take barely 1 hour and give like 30g. You can farm whatever item you want in the store within days, or weeks for the most expensive ones
Fun fact if you just walk into heart of thorns content without having worked your way up... or even if you did work your way up. The enemies in heart of thorns are going to kick your ass. It will be significantly worse if you boost though.
Mesmers aren't better at jumping puzles they are more known to "help" other people up ( their portal skill allows you to skip the jumping part) the puzzle.
To me pay to win means that if you swipe your card you'll get a significant advantage over your opponent to the point to where there's nothing you can do to win against him. If a player in gw2 pulls out the card for a legendary weapon they are not gonna make any kind of difference against me or anyone else, on the contrary he is going to look like a fool for dying and not knowing how to use it. Power wise in gw2 everyone is equal, skill wise not so much. Therefor i would say gw2 is not pay to win not even in the slightest

i really enjoy gw2, but i do understand that there are definitely p2w aspects outside of gameplay. i feel that others need to understand this too and be fine in accepting that.
GW2 isn't pay to win because what you can pay for isn't progress. You don't get better at PvP or PvE as a result of walletwarrioring. If paying for things that don't actually hit a progress breakpoint in any way, then 'P2W' means dykk. The term has no coherent meaning and we just can't have this conversation in a meaningful way anymore. It's like buying a weapon in a shooter that is identical to a free one except that it's 101 damage the free one is 100 damage. In a game where everything has less than 100 hp and no armor mechanics. It doesn't work in PvP, does nothing for you stat wise in PvE. It's literally cosmetic.
If we're talking GW2 pay to win, it's End of Dragons. The Jade bot core gives you extra Vitality, and can give you a massive buff to attack and defense stats that last multiple hours at a time. I'm kind shocked I never hear anyone talk about it.
technically all the expansions are p2w compared to f2p or if a person happens to be someone who has not bought an expansion since the original release.
@@kekeconkbut you can't usw without eod. And callin an expansion p2w for the core is pretty eumb when classes do half the damage without elite specs nor can they be healers.
20:30 and that just gets worse.. when you are experienced 99% of the pve content feels meaningless.. and it gets really ffing annoying when all bosses are super easy, but have huge hitboxes.. these just feel like loading bars / fake content
THB RE the gem store: Mukluk IS an Anet Partner - he has an affiliate link you can use for expansions so he gets a cut, he is in the good graces of Anet and gets invited on stream and signal boosted by Anet time to time - of course his opinions on the gem store are going to be mild, on top of the fact that he plays GW2 and makes content for it, getting income for it. TLDR he is bias
In regards to boost or no boost, I, personally, could not stand leveling up the normal way when I first got into the game around EoD. Felt so boring and the slow dribbling out of any interesting skills was killing me. So I boosted, started PoF enough to follow someone around to get enough Hero Points to unlock an elite spec (machinist), and THEN went back and did personal story straight through EoD. I had a much better time
i know that being offensive is your brand, but you lost me with the repeated "xxtarded" and mental health references. come at me if you want ya'll, we all have our limits.

12/10 content

20:30 and that just gets worse.. when you are experienced 99% of the pve content feels meaningless.. and it gets really ffing annoying when all bosses are super easy, but have huge hitboxes.. these just feel like loading bars / fake content
THB RE the gem store: Mukluk IS an Anet Partner - he has an affiliate link you can use for expansions so he gets a cut, he is in the good graces of Anet and gets invited on stream and signal boosted by Anet time to time - of course his opinions on the gem store are going to be mild, on top of the fact that he plays GW2 and makes content for it, getting income for it. TLDR he is bias
In regards to boost or no boost, I, personally, could not stand leveling up the normal way when I first got into the game around EoD. Felt so boring and the slow dribbling out of any interesting skills was killing me. So I boosted, started PoF enough to follow someone around to get enough Hero Points to unlock an elite spec (machinist), and THEN went back and did personal story straight through EoD. I had a much better time
Oh Roze, so sometime in June, anet is releasing bathing suits, so there will be a massive influx to dommy mommy female norns :D
bshit, that shit been leaked for years like school outfits
@@lilbladeknight what is bull about it? ANet announced Friday that they are bringing swimwear skins to the game in late June.
@lilbladeknight not bs. Anet said it themselves my guy😉. Late June. They released pics and all
i know that being offensive is your brand, but you lost me with the repeated "xxtarded" and mental health references. come at me if you want ya'll, we all have our limits.
