QOTW: I really want a Gw2 sequel just to see what Anet would come up with if, instead of taking WoW, Gw1, and other thempark mmos as the base to innovate on, they took sandbox mmos like Runescape as the starting point and innovated on that formula. I think Gw2 would be in a much better place if it was a sandbox mmo because the larger focus on non-combat based side skills and systems like crafting, farming, fishing, housing, etc. gives players more side content to do, more reasons to revisit old content for resources, and more places where players can just chill and socialize. Plus the extra freedom sandbox mmos usually give players is a better fit for the 'play how you want' mentality that the game was designed with originally.

Mike are you like the Edna Mode for the free to play cast ?

Da-bomb :This the season to spend money , on all the season skins and toys , that are as useful as a competitive team and as cannon as , i don't know , aaa , tom and jerry and willy wonka and the chocolate factory , but since i don't have money , i'm just going to paint my spiked shoulders, bone armor , and reaper hood , in green red and white so attempt to blend in , flawless attempt .

QOTW : Guild wars , don't get me wrong , i love the game , from the classes to the lore , to the world , and , O MY GOD the mounts . In my opinion they really just need to slap a 3 at the end , and change some staff , nut much tho , just go full action combat and some better graphics , some better performance , and mabey skip over the mistakes they already did in gw2 . But maybe that's just me , maybe it needs more than that to acquire a new audience .
