    I was one of those guys who at first was indifferent to the story and later actively grew to think of it as a slog and chore to get through. My biggest complaint is that despite having dozens of vibrant and fantastical cultures and people, everyone speaks with the same quippy "voice" that's often compared to Marvel movies. Gone are the days when Norn are stoic and reverent. Asura are less isolationist and xenophobic. Charr are less honor-bound and bellicose. Sylvari are less guided by Ventari and more by Joss Whedon. And the reveal that the isolated Canthans speak and act like the typical Seattle urbanite was the nail in the coffin for me. It's all just one type of mannerism and sassy Reddit/Twitter style of humor for everyone. Q1: Like you mentioned: Malyck, the Nightmare Court and the mysterious second Pale tree that Malyck is from has been in the back of my mind the entire time I've been playing. Q2: New weapon types. Greataxes, Polearms, Crossbows, Twinblades, Spears (land), Wands, etc. I understand that there are already some weapon skins that turn existing weapons into some of these weapon types but I'm mostly looking for GW2 to expand horizontally by giving us new tools to use. If we get another pass at Weapon Master for our classes, there just aren't any logical options for some classes like Warrior (Scepters? Focus?) for them to reasonably use.

    I respect the commitment of getting ill just to show how time friendly GW2 is. Jokes aside, I'm a big fan of the green/blue prophet shard split, albeit for a more selfish reason. IBS strikes now progress me getting some of the EoD infusions faster :)

    AirborneSpitfire.4578 X-pack 5 I don't feel like I know enough about what story threads are still hanging loose, I just want good writing and presentation honestly. Didn't care about the human gods prior to PoF, now I do. Didn't care about Charr culture before IBS, now I do. Make me care. New expansion features idea: make underwater combat not shit. Aquabreather now holds 100% of the stats similar to PvP, the rune gets the full 6 piece bonus. Distance and depth of target is displayed similar to Elite Dangerous' radar, like an overlay. My problem with underwater is that I never gear for it (why would I spend like 20g on gear that sees less than 1% of playtime) so my build always breaks when I enter water and I usually use the ground to gauge distance to the enemy which I can't do underwater. Love the content you do, thank you!

    Maedhin.5680, the new expansion 1. Hmm . . . probably wherever the Eye of Janthir went. Honestly, LWS3 was up and down, but that moment where it pops in and then just dips out . . . idk, that artifact was scary. (Haven't played GW1, so I have no idea if there's more info on it. I assume there's more lore in the Isle of Janthir . . . ?) 2. Ok, so this is what I thought Convergences were initially, and was pretty disappointed when it was just "another large battle in a large map!", but here's my hope (copium, prolly) for the castle in Nayos: - An instanced, expedited rogue-like experience using the area-capture features of Drizzlewood Coast/the progression of Dragon's Stand. The devs could implement a map structure that changes every instance--recreating the Labrynthine feel we got from that first instance running from Cerus in the story mission--and a rotating end boss like they've done with Convergences. You could get a squad or a party to battle through the maze of passageways capturing various points on the map within the castle until you finally hit the boss at the end. Once the squad beats the boss, the dream realm fractures, and you get shunted out of the castle back into Nayos or the Wizard's Tower. Probably would last for 30 minutes or an hour. Or, 30 minutes to get to the boss, and 15 to take it down.

    I don’t think Anet could justify paying devs to do what I’m about to suggest BUT I feel like it would help them get more people into Raid content. They should take time to convert Raids to Strikes. Have something at the end that basically was a portal asking if you wanted to go to the next instance in the chain. They still give LI but they give Blue Shards instead of Magnetite.

    I really agree with you on Glenna. Shes made raiding pretty fun and adds a pretty fun 'normal persons reaction' to raid bosses. Like, yeah.. if I saw Cairn, Id be like "Did you see that? What is that??" too! Vamana.5086 Id love the new unnanounced one😎 Q1 -- expanded story thread? I'd love to see an expansion on the Death Gods. We helped lock Dhuum away again, will Grenth be grateful? Also, a personal wish, but I'd love to see a storyline on how Aurene, this incredibly powerful dragon, disrupts the balance with her ability to revive with Joko magic. Maybe they could spin it as an elder dragon has such insane magical energy and potential, that having it locked up and not cycled via death is killing the flow of magic in the universe. Maybe have Grenth show up tepidly and say "Thanks for your help, but I need to take your dragon/her powers." I just really dont like a Deus Ex Machina type character who also cant die..

    Removing my entry, one of my guildies bought me EOD The biggest dangling thread for me is Malyck, the sylvari not born of the Pale Tree. He takes off back to the west in the Sylvari Personal Story and then the entire thing is never brought up again. As for what I'd look forward to in a new expansion... I'd say the thing I'm most interested in is where the story goes from here. There's so many interesting things they could do with a post-dragon-cycle world, but we'll have to wait and see if they do any of them.

OR they could rework the damn underwater bullshit and make and underwater expansion with both new weapons and new water mount that would be cool i guess 😀

    I actually really like political type beats in GW more than world ending threats. Joko stuff is the cream of the crop for those story beats in GW1 and 2. I was excited for Canthan politics given where GW1 left off. But then it turns out none of that mattered cause June is a benevolent godsend and not a grey character or even villain. Then the SUPER random Kaineng Overlook story that turns into the strike. If you were only doing story quests that dude basically comes out of nowhere and decides he wants to die fighting us 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ I’m still waiting for Taimi to succumb to her illness but im sure June will develop a jade elixir because jade dragon magic can do ANYTHING.

    Q1. What story aspects would I like to see expanded? A1. I don't like the story direction as a whole. The dragons should have stayed an unbeatable ultimate threat. The dragon cycle could have been a line in the sand that multiple races, factions and groups would have to adapt and live with. Watching alliances form and break between factions trying to make the best of the dragon cycle situation would have been more interesting to then everyone you meet joining the Tyrian United Nations to take down bigger Jaws. I don't mind bigger Jaws stories, but when most of the story arcs are the same I get sick of it fast. Q2. What expansion feature are you looking forward to? A2. I wish Anet would stop reskinning/recycling old assets/content for just one "expansion". Instead, go back to all the old, neglected content that desperately needs attention and fixing that. Crafting 1-400 needs to be revamped to give more value to the new players taking them. (i.e. all cooking recipes should have single and plater options without needing mystic coins to unlock. Players wouldn't have to waste time mailing food to their friends and wait to mail the fourth cause of the mailing limit...). Gear and loot needs to be looked at too. It doesn't take long for players to figure out killing tough champions, or completing jump puzzles, are pointless because the gear they get is trash every time. Trophy items also need to go. I know trophy items are in the game to get players to buy inventory expansions, but please just delete them. Compensate the loot tables with more money or something. For gear, dedicated loot drops for champion type, jump puzzle, mini-dungeon, etc. would encourage players to replay, explore areas to find "unique" loot for that dopamine hit (make whatever weapon/armor/access. stat selectable. New players need stat choice sooner than end game at level 80 :T). Aside from patching the many "quit moments", an expansion I'd love to see would be open world mini-dungeons. Some would be hidden while others could pop on a timer in open world. It would fit the theme of a living world like "random events" do. Have them scale to the area level and below. That way if one pops infront of a party of level 15s they could still win and have a good time. Could even add a difficulty option at the entrance for more loot, or have it at the end if you want to go deeper. At least, Anet could make 6~ish dungeons for each biome and call it a day. While slowly adding more over time.

    Arlequin san.7420 SoTo (honestly its just for the weaponmaster ) Honestly, the story was interesting until EoD, as much as the worldbuilding has carried the game, the last few story bits have no impact overall, if all that talk about politics and morals of characters would have a real big impact on your actions or the world it wouldn't feel so useless. It might sound cruel but we had have important deaths before, so they being shy about death and consecuences fell meh
