I honestly hate that Torchwood and Hover Goat were made purchasable, as it completely undermines the value of the Trials of Gnomus. Although it's very difficult, I think that's what makes the Trials enjoyable.

I can’t even count how many times I repeated that one memory puzzle. It took me a long while, but when I did it finally, I felt so satisfied with myself.

This game will always remind me of tf2 first because of the name, the community, the goofy style, the fun time you will have on either games, the lack of updates, and being able to infinitely replay both games I love both of these games but if tf2 ever dies I think that may be the time that gw2 dies or vice versa but when they do die they will always be remembered.

Ea/popcap makes such bad decisions. They had a gold mine of pvz shooters and then quit after one failure.

[@darknessinc.5360]

And it's their fault for removing skill variants/character variants

[@jakepeng9962]

@@darknessinc.5360 In bfn they could have reworked varients to be more different as well by having quality over quantity. Maybe have 2, or even 1 varient of each character on launch and slowly start adding more. Things like ice cactus, electric cactus ect were so boring and pointless. Toxic pea could have bouncing projectiles as an example, and fire pea could leave molten fire on the ground that hurts those that step on it.

@@jakepeng9962also general cosmetic things for all the variants wouldve been cool, from more details to the naming scheme for the elemental variants being more creative in general.

[@darknessinc.5360]

@@jakepeng9962 I have honestly always really liked the idea of ice variants, but i feel like they have always been really underwhelming, I agree that fire variants and toxic where too similiar, but i quite miss all the sunflowers alternatives and chompers, those where quite different from the rest.

The game is just fun. It doesn’t have a predatory progression system, it doesn’t have a forced in ranked mode or eSport, plenty of content for both PvP and PvE, all for one price.

[@redmilk2861]

My dad plays 2 games, this and Fortnite on his X-Box. He used to play the first game exclusively but moved on to these two. He has been at the max level for as long as I remember him playing. His account is pretty cracked, and he has thousands of hours. He exclusively plays the first 50-kill game and cranks out multiple of them. He is always the highest rank in his lobby. I asked him this same question a while ago, "Why do people still play it." he said, "Because it's a great game." I love my dad, lol. (BTW, I'm pretty sure he never spent any of his coins, I wonder how many he has by now, lol)

[@imbadatpickinganame]

for me i was allowed violent games and didnt exactly have any attachment to PVZ i think ironically the gunplay is genuinely very enjoyable, no matter what you actually enjoyed playing, all of the classes were enjoyable, even the cactus which plays more like a sniper i think the chomper makes it accessible to people who suck at the game too, i know i had a lot of fun with the chomper also the variants of the plants, i remember getting the plasma pea shooter and it made the game feel fresh etc i have a lot of good memories playing garden warfare with my friends and might try and get some of my friends to play it again sometime

[@xArt_16]

This game is also very satisfying whilst doing any damage, (I haven’t played in a while so the names could be wrong lol) Silencer pea and just beaming people in the head and seeing the numbers pop up with the headshot sound, hitting along range rocket as the jump soldier, being a dirty chemist/Marine Biologist just dropping people and seeing those big numbers pop up. It just felt good and clean to play, and while sometimes you get hit by something that obviously didn’t hit you, that goes both ways so it never felt “bad” to me. Just felt like very forgiving hit boxes. The game allows any play style to be viable (imo), like there are solid options for everyone. And with the ability mods or upgrades (once again, I forget the actual name) it adds even more variety to the characters.

[@HydroSnorter3000]

I was allowed to play fallout 4 at 9. I still preferred the garden warfare games. PvZGW2 is the best game because it has vampire flower

[@shellshockhkmk7816]

Its like TF2 but with plants and zombies. I remember getting it on my birthday cause it came out just before it. I love jt and still play it sometimes, While i admittedly did buy the larty characters, i earned Z7 imp (by preordering it) and torchwood and hovergoat. I even recorded jt, you guessed it, on a physical cam corder, on a tripod, pointing at the TV. I loved that game so much and the fact that every match has a bunch of no rank plates (fresh installs) is amazing

[@justarandomplayer2569]

I love this Game because 1. I used to play GW1 and GW2 a lot when I was young and 2. Its pretty much the only "competitive Shooter" which I can play when I just want to have fun and relax without getting upset or feeling any urge to tryhard. Usually when you play other competitive Shooters like COD, R6 Siege or Overwatch for example, you easily get upset at something or feel like you need to get better at it as fast as possible and want to sweat even more, learn all tactics, loadouts, Heroes and whatever else. Its often not really something you can actually lay back and relax with if you get what I mean. GW2 Is totally different for me personally and a very fun and chill experience, no matter how old you are. It amazes me that its still has such a big Community that keeps the Game alive so even after all these Years you can find full Lobbies and enjoy this piece of Videogame Art.

In the unlikely event that gw3 (not bfn) does happen, I hope they give us more quests and hidden lore/unlockable characters, gameodes, etc. Something about the trials of gnomus and unlocking torchwood and hovergoat is so engaging despite not even being apart of the multiplayer experience.

Honestly if theres any updates I’d wish it would be for the quality of life features that were only added in bfn to make it to gw2 as unrealistic as it sounds. Having a chomper that doesn’t rely on cheap abilities, or a super brainz with a turbo twister ability that’s literally just empty space, the more balanced hyper, the way contested turf points work, the very useful overtime bar. Those are just some but I can’t believe they chose not to put those very useful features in gw2 for instead a game that ended up poofing after a year…

[@keagandavidson4250]

It’s because the game is still genuinely better than most similar style games and it executes the concepts very well. It just needs to be relaunched or something.
