Winds of Change launches

[ComplexNuber]

Hah, I love how suddenly our characters are so ethical after slaughtering 3 entire continents worth of people and creatures :P

I managed to finish the Pt 2 off, it was quite a bit shorter, and the story definitely got more interesting. Still not quite as nail biting as the War in Kryta, but it's going somewhere and a free update is a free update (; Also, it seemed like Pt 2 may have been a bit easier than Pt 1, I don't recall having any difficulty, although pulling enemies is important as always. The enemies were always balled up very nicely, so maybe Panic is why it seemed easier.

I couldn't get myself to play it after 2nd quest in part one <_< More repetitiveness plox.

[Centaur]

Yeah, part 1 was quite repetitive... it only got better towards the end. Fortunately part 2 is much better. Plus, it does advance the story quite nicely, and it has a couple of worthwhile rewards.
And ComplexNuber, you're right that it's fairly easy in normal mode... or maybe that is because we now know what we can expect and we're prepared for it. But have you tried it in hard mode? Fighting such a large group of enemies with only a party of 6 definitely isn't what I'd call "easy"

If this is anything like War in Kryta, count me out. I hated it with a vengeance.

How would you define "being like WiK"? It has some similarities but some differences as well. I've not come that far yet though but it has been very interesting so far.

[Zyx]

I really disliked WiK. A bunch of quests through the most boring part of Tyria, I felt it was just a really long grind throughout previous missions' maps, and if this is going to be the same then I'm probably not going to do it.

Hi Zyx, welcome to these forums. If you thought WiK was boring, then I don't think you will like WoC very much. Just like WiK, you will be revisiting lots of areas in the game, doing quests (mainly the 'go kill' type) there to progress the story. The main reason for playing WiK and WoC isn't that the quests are so extremely fun to do, it's unlocking/understanding the lore behind it.

Probably what makes me less interested in it. I've never cared much for 'lore' of games, especially GW2 and I'm thinking that I'll most likely be more involved in PvP in GW2 than PvE. And thanks for the welcome.
