Respect to you Comrade Fornax :)

It feels good to know that there are some comrades/lefties around the gaming scene. Need more people in the scene to talk about this kind of stuff. Also because often gaming people maintain somekind of anti-politics behaviour that at some points get's really toxic. To really get the games we dream of we need to overcome capitalism and it's focus in profit rather than whats inside. Think about mods.. so many good and innovative ideas happen when people do something they WANT to play without the need to make a profit. It also proves it's not true only competition will get you innovative ideas. In reality the best Things happen when ppl start to cooperate ;)

The highlight of this whole podcast for me is Jebro recommending Absinthe to Kroof. You sir have earned my respect.

[@JebroUnity]

LOLLLL ... those were the days... xD

[@Pastamancer509]

Comrade Fornax! Never stop!

[@relentlessnights4211]

Human and Charr are a must! The Norn need there transformations to be part of their skill animations or removed, sylvari are lost with the dragons, and the asura should be an npc only situation. Replaced with new demon race, tengu, and dwarf. But ideally more than 5, especially if in the future there are more to represent factions or teams of races.

Things I like about GW2 and would like to see in GW3, the same, or modified and improved. The original Dungeons (IMO) were a good idea with the story mode to introduce them to players, and the 3 explore-able paths that new players couldn't open until they had tried the story mode version. I just wish they had kept them maintained and bug free, while also adding more Dungeons to the game, instead of Fractals with Agony Resistance. Raids instead of Strike Missions - The full on Raids were better thought out and implemented, and the only two improvements I would suggest for them are a tier system (like Fractals), so all levels of player skill can enjoy them, and to continue to add more new Raids every year and with every expansion. More fully thought out story chapters, with no short cuts and dropped story lines because of changed priorities from management. More story content, at more frequent intervals, and each new story release to have sufficient content to take more than just an hour or two to complete. Rework, or remove some of the complexity of the combat system, so the game can be balanced more easily for competitive players, and new maps for both PvP and WvW areas on a regular schedule. New game engine that could reduce, or eliminate loading screen wait times between maps, and increase the maximum allowed number of players for each map. Those are my top requests for GW3, but I can easily think of many more if I took more time to think about it. I suggest that all GW2 players express what they want, because just maybe Anet is watching and listening to what the players want.

I have comented on Fornax video several ideas that come to my mind and now fue days later if i look wot i would like the moust... I think i wish WvWvW fokused and polished totally. It could be eaven like in WoW like difrent part of GW2, but with dediicated development team to meik it alive and thicking. That is it🐣

[@relentlessnights4211]

How did we skip over which classes are available at launch ?! If it’s 9, which 9 would yall pick ?

[@JebroUnity]

Its a really huge convo honestly xD. This was just a real chill kinda overall idea rather than in depth! Def a good question though! Perhaps we will do a part 2 this week!

[@relentlessnights4211]

@@JebroUnity right on 👍 looking forward to conversations and wishlist

[@mishking9547]

I hope GUild Wars 3 doesnt have boons and focuses more on the combo field/combo finishers system that guild wars 2 attempted but never really perfected

[@JebroUnity]

I think GW2 does pretty well with combo fields tbh and is probably the first mmo of its kind to do so ^^

[@mishking9547]

@@JebroUnity its been getting better over the years but nobody even knew what they were back in the day and anet didnt let us utilize them very well

[@davidmorris2234]

Isn't GW2 one of NCSoft's best income producing games? Even though GW2 isn't really huge compared to FFXIV, or WoW, it does have significant numbers still playing the game and buying expansions. I don't know enough about what other games are published by NCSoft, so maybe I'm wrong about GW2 being their biggest income producer.

[@scottdunn9784]

Guild Wars Free? I think that’s called core Tyria

[@JebroUnity]

HAH! I cannot say my TH's at all lol. You did give me a chuckle xD. Thanks for the comment!

[@scottdunn9784]

Hahaha I’m glad. In all seriousness love the podcast keep it up :)

[@EinfachLuap]

I want them to make GW3 and throw out EVERYTHING that made GW2 unique and players love about it, just so GW2 Fans know what the game felt like to the GW1 people lmao

[@JebroUnity]

Oh dear D:

[@davidmorris2234]

If the original Guild Wars was so great, why didn't it dethrone WoW? I'm not saying it was a bad game, but the developers decided that it wasn't good enough to continue down that path, so they created something different (GW2). Anet might decide to do the same thing to GW2, by creating something very different and new again, but original ideas aren't that easy to come up with, and I'm betting that they will borrow heavily on everything they have learned over the past twenty years, as well as what they have learned from other games, both the good parts that should be copied, and the bad parts that should be avoided. My question is this; does Anet have the resources to create a completely new game, or would they be better off transferring as many GW2 assets to a new modern game engine, to use as a starting point, and fix, or reinvent what didn't work in GW2. That seems like the smartest approach to use, for a studio with limited development resources.

[@EinfachLuap]

@@davidmorris2234 I mean, I agree with you, sure. In the end I obviously can only say what I think, and what I think is that gw1 was superior in many ways to WoW. I'm not arguing it was objectively better, but having played both I enjoyed gw1 a lot more.
