And is actively happening. Sadly, most people will choose comfortable lies over hard truths.
- Comment on A First Look at Homesteads: Exclusive Preview from PC Gamer – GuildWars2.com 1 week ago:
Looms cool, didn’t expect the alts being persistent.
The character statues are great, though would rather dress up uniquely from warderobe and not just do a snapshot. Also a statue efect would be cool, the way they showed it it looks less like statue and more like taxidermy project.

I don’t play, but watched a vid on this. Apparently we never killed hin or Theo Parnell - they both somehow faked their deaths (Theo was the one with all the decoy shit) and are back at it.
- Comment on When did a movie misrepresent the country or city you live in? 3 weeks ago:
The Hostel showed Bratislava and Slovakia as a post-communist hellscape. It was very much overblown and not filmed here at all.
Funily enough some cat chase scene for whatever action film was filmed here while the chase was supposed to be in Vienna (I think).
- Comment on Dragon Age: The Veilguard | Official Reveal Trailer 3 weeks ago:
If I remember correctly this was a live service game at first but pivoted back to singleplayer after Anthem or some other flop. It definitely still bleeds through.

Awesome, thanks for answering!

Sounds great! So I understand you skill up stuff by walking, I assume traveling through the world as well? The site mentions there is combat as well, how does that work?

- Comment on Announcing Wayfinder Echoes - Forging Our Own Path (online-only game soon to be playable offline) 1 month ago:
Wayfinder had both. There were these randomly generated dungeons akin to Warframr instanced missions or Destiny strikes, but also had a open world zone with events and such for a more MMO feeling. New bigger zones were of course promised along with mounts. Raids were mentioned, as were guilds and guild housing and other social features.
I get the desire to have a game playable offline, it’s valid. And maybe the game will end up being enjoyable as single player. But that’s not what made me personally interested. But oh well, my bad for buying into early access, I was due to get burned on it I guess. At least I went for the lowest pack (I did try asking for a refund but I played a bit, so not having high hopes)

You can play with friends, but not just matmchmake with randos when your friends are not online or not playing the game at all (or not having friends). You miss the organic moments when you are having a fight in open world, you are loosing and suddenly some dude charges in and saves the day. You can’t join guilds (promissed feature) and engage in a community, potentially make new friends to do the aforementioned activities with so you don’t have to play with randos. You miss the feeling of being a part of greater world, when you just see someone else in the game. Or the ability to ask for help in map chat. Also ongoing support and updates.
Funny you should mention V Rising too because while I’d probably play solo, I’m more likely to find a server to play on along side others than just playing on my own server alone or offline (not sure how this works therr tbh).
Simply put, I’d miss those things you experience in MMOs. Wayfinder was fun when populated. Much less so when there was nobody to play with.
I was promissed an MMO lite that would become an MMO through thr development, but getting a single player game instead. I wish the game and the devs all the luck but I can’t help but feel betrayed - much like majority of gamers who expect single player game but get live service one.

You are asking if it could be same experience as an MMO-lite without being online. Think about it.
Core gameplay will stay, yes. And sounds like they changed quite a bit. But if you were promissed an MMO-lite and are getting a single player game…
I hope that it is notnthe exact same game but offline, because it will not hold up. There are different expectations from a MMO and single player game.
- Comment on Announcing Wayfinder Echoes - Forging Our Own Path (online-only game soon to be playable offline) 1 month ago:
Well the MMO aspects. It is now single player game with optional co-op.
Nothing against single payer games. I just love me some MMO/MMO lite games.

Whelp. The MMO lite aspects are what made me interested.

Maybe I’m missing some nuanceof the word but if they believe the stuff because they are gullible… isn’t that what makes them the victim?

This is by far the most frustrating thing
- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 1 month ago:
I’d not see it as judgemental, just trying to inform. These days meatcis just a commodity, completely disasociated from the animals it comes from and without second thougt on how those animals are treated. If I go into detail like this, it’s really just to get the info out there in a casual way. The person in question might ignore it, or may think about it. I also needed nudges like this to realize the moral issue and I’m happy for every one of them. I don’t really go into detail much, and rarely inform someone about my preferences. But will answer truthfuly when asked
If someone chooses to ignore ot just not see the suffering behind eating meat in this day and age, it is frustrating though to say the least. Especially if simply reducing the meat intake and being more selective about the source of the meat comes a long way. But I get why it is so tough, as I’m not a saint myself and while I reduce meat most of the time, I still have some occasionally even if I feel bad about it.
- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 1 month ago:
“meat’s another word for dick and eating dick is gay”. As problematic as it was, it worked.
It’s both sad and hillarious that this worked. I wonder if you created a new vegetarian as well

I remember buying myself one as well. After a few years I moved so never found out if it just “took time” :D
At least I didn’t have to feel bad pirating it.

- Comment on How to ease up the return to GW2 2 months ago:
That is indeed great, first time I can really apreciate that. The issue is with how tough it is to get into with achievements/collections being used as quest stand-ins (no way to get a quick recap on what I did) and fuckton of currencies (I did not dare to check the wallet yet to see them all).
- Comment on How to ease up the return to GW2 2 months ago:
since after the introduction of the legendary wardrobe, you can equip any legendary on all your characters now
Ooooh, this is nice indeed! Along with the selectable stats (do I remember it right?) this sounds like a really good incentive to get Legendaries. I might want to finally look inyo those.
