Thanks! Good luck to you in your endeavours as well!

As for the rest, thanks for the snark. Good to know it's alive and well in the forums. Okay, here you go again. Well, I guess its important to make another comment for the god of the comment countersOh, good. More personal insults. Heck of a way to support your side of an argument. So please next time read what you send, because even if you mean something else, people cant get into your head to get your initial meaningPlease, next time, do not be so condescending. If there is question about my opinion, or my points/posts, then ask for clarification. Personally attacking me because I don't agree with you does not help.So distorting other people's words and putting words into other people's mouths is called "having opinion" and "having discussion". Well, sorry, then I have to forfeit from such "discussion". You can add one to number of the internet disscuissions you've won and to the number of the trolled topics.

As for the rest, thanks for the snark. Good to know it's alive and well in the forums. Okay, here you go again. Well, I guess its important to make another comment for the god of the comment counters First a direct lie - I never was assuming anything about majority of players, I was talking about my opinion as a new player.Second - "your viewpoint suffers from the assumption that the majority of the players in GW2 would prefer to play the game by going through the story chapters in order from start to present. I'm not convinced that this is the case."This sentence reads exactly as if minority of the players in GW2 would prefer to play the game by going through the story chapters in order from start to present then there is no need for off-story mount unlocks, since you wont be convinced till its a majority So please next time read what you send, because even if you mean something else, people cant get into your head to get your initial meaning

Never spoken of any "majority of the players" ? :) I never said anything about majority of the players, I just said its a bit unfair to story following players. You've started to mention some "majority" Reading is important. I said "that your viewpoint suffers from assumption that the majority of players....." I never spoke for the majority. If you can't keep your argument straight, then there is no need to continue. You now seem only to vilify my opinion rather than have any substantial debate about it. Good luck with your request. I hope that you enjoy your mounts in GW2 whenever you get them.Thanks, wish you next time read OP post more accurately, so you will see that he and I were talking about mounts for POF owners, not F2P, and wont have discussion with god knows who about how its bad to give mounts to F2P people, or quote "majority of players" when you were the first one to use it. Though you've really got a lot of messages to your message counter, I guess its important for some people, as well as walking without mount for half of the content

Thanks for the tip!

Thanks a lot!

To unlock the area I need to start POF storyline :( No you dont, group up and ask someone to waypoint to the map you want to then use a teleport to friend item you get from yearly birthdays or blacklion chests.Thanks, will try!

But, yes, to address the topic of the thread about rental mounts, I still have to ask what's in it for ANet? Until someone can show how this would be profitable for them, I don't see that the OP's proposal would be implemented. Why so serious? :) You are the one who brought up that majority of the players are fine, cause they dont care about the story and get mount almost right away, and that me not getting a mount even though I own POF is story liking players own choice and problem. And point to me where OP was talking about F2P players? I think since that he mentioned 80LVL booster in his post, its clear that he talking about the new players who bought the expansions. So, so far you are only one who are talking about F2P players

Well, maybe some people find walking in game fun and like to spend time on walking instead of doing other things :) I never said anything about giving mounts to F2P players, I was agreeing with post talking about giving off-story option to get mounts to owners of POF. So, opressing story liking minorities for having their opinion that is a different from your, eh? :) Well, we are getting more and more offtopic, thread is asking a question - how does the new players feel about story-locked mounts - I answered, that its gets more and more unfun. And then people come and start to convince me that its good to be bad unfun things are fine, just I have a wrong point of view :) Oh, and I am a casual player, so I dont have much time to play. People who are more free wont feel walking this time-consuming, I guess.

Certainly your opinion as this is mine. The game is not making anyone choose between spoiling the story or QoL. That's a player's decision. As is your thought about the game forcing players to play the story in line. Why should your preference affect the way that other players wish to enjoy the game? I'm not trying to sound snarky, here, so I apologize if it comes over like that. No problem, I just think we have different view on what is "forcing".Let me clear first - do you agree that mounts bring up QOL for players?If yes - then, from my point of view, players have two choices -1) Spoil the story and get a big improvement in quality of life.2) Go on with the story, but suffer from tedious things, wasting hours and hours of gameplay on walking in the result (and since I am just finishing my story, I have a lot of walking ahead) For me it looks like a making choice between story and QOL. And making player choose between QOL and Storyline is not a good decision, in my opinion.

Good day, I've just got Crystal Oasis Bounty Hunter daily task, though I havent started POF story (I've had to start HOT story, though).It does seem right to me to being forced into spoiling the story or losing choice of daily achievements

As a new player I really agree that there should be a way to unlock mount without spoiling the story, and even though mounts are not that necessary, but being almost only player without them is a bit of a downer. SImple idea, play the game, BUY POF if you haven't and work towards a mount. Just like everyone else has done. I thought its kinda clear that I have POF, but I havent even finish main story yet, and I care about the story, so I am stuck without mount for a long time, while players who dont care about the story, if they were at my point in game, could unlock them in several hours. Sounds like a personal choice, especially as mounts aren't required for any content until you get to PoF?I never said they are required, just as more I play, the more tedious running around becomes. Just pointing that its gets more and more unfun, especially if you dont have a lot of time to play and much of that time you must spend running around. And I wouldnt really care, if all players would have to get to story in the line, but when game makes you choose between QOL and spoiling the story - thats not really a good thing
