Been ages since playing GW2.

Really looking forward to whatever classes they have for GW3 though hoping they actually bring back Dervish shame they didn't actually bring it to GW2.

Which kind of goes back to my original complaint about the game. It just "feels" like its too casual for "me" when I want to deep dive into an MMO. I can no life shit NOW, not after I have taken .. god, how many days for the crafted Lumps and Spools? Or the provisioners themselves, or essences, or the relics, or the daily/weekly chests, or, or, or.. Look, just let me fucking grind it out as quick as I can. Yes - I know I can spend money to bypass some of that. But for fuck sake.
My favorite path for a casual-friendly game like GW2 is to let players no-life everything, but provide substantial but limited daily boosts that let someone earn it over longer periods of time with moderate total playtime. It's been a while but I remember the fractal reward system being a very good version of that in that you can grind fractals 24/7 but you get daily missions to do them to get a huge payout.

The hard-locked time gates are annoying for all the reasons you've stated.

I’m kinda disappointed it’s not set in the future.

I’m not sure what the story is these days but the remaining gods fleeing into the mists to start over was kinda cool and could have served as a neat modern reboot.
