After 7 years + , logging every single day, each thing you listed is literally nothing to be so amazed about when you get little to no content...When you're annoyed at direction Anet is taking, last thing you'll think of is "oh wow, they have nice UI" ... you get used to any UI if you stay long enough, when I started ESO I thought I was going to get a heart attack when I saw UI in there but after a day it's just fine.and ESO has much better everything and it's not running on dx9 ...

I know :(I even said it's pointless to argue logic with him but he makes me lose my marbles

When will you snap out of your endless loop "Anet is bussiness, must pay for services", you're continuously being told that you don't get it, but you still keep going...Unfortunately my last reply about you being a traumatized cashier got removed, but that's fine. That's what he always does if you look at any of his previous posts

No it's not, because I never made any of the specific and absolutely ridiculous comparisons you have. My comparison is at a MUCH higher level... Anet is a business that charges customers to access their goods and services ... just like ANY OTHER business does. So no, the question here is not why are they charging for this feature ... because being charged for goods and services is a REASONABLE expectation any customer should have when they walk through the door of any business. You read nothing, just like I said, you just focus on tiniest thing in any post and say "No cuz Anet" ... you literally even started the sentence like that....LOL and now you edited the post to not make it seem that way !! xD

I'm right and you aren't, so you are angry because you think you should get whatever you say you should be getting for whatever you are willing to pay for it. This is the first day I have bothered with this forum in a long time, and I certainly regret interacting with the likes of you Obtena, more than I am sad about any drawbacks of the upcoming system. I feel Anet should hire him to cleanse the forum of all us reasonable/sensible people by annoying us so we never go back to forums ever again and Anet gets their imaginary paradise here where people just nod and say yes to any nonsense that's thrown their way.Anet listens and reads what we say as much as he does - not at all.

Did you ever use Arc templates? Perhaps you don't understand that once the appropriate gear was moved between characters the Arc system would handle equipping, stat selection, rune sigil and infusion swapping in a single click? You seem to be suggesting I should just manually equip, select stats, infusions, sigils and runes every time I want to swap builds and be happy. Honestly, I don't get that logic. It's irrelevant want Arc did. It wasn't a game supported feature. Frankly, I don't see why you wouldn't be happy with that ... you went out and got a FULL SET of legendary armor knowing that is what it's function and added value over ascended gear was. I mean, in no way was what you are doing before optimal, but now it's a problem? :some off topic thing: I don't get why you are replying to me if you are incapable of being on topic. You can't tell me I'm not on topic here ... Sure I can ... because you aren't. I've listened to what people have to say. I don't agree with what they are saying. Basically, you don't like that I disagree, so instead of continually adding to the heap, you went off topic. That's too bad. I'm right and you aren't, so you are angry because you think you should get whatever you say you should be getting for whatever you are willing to pay for it. That's not how it works, not here, not anywhere. But you already know this .. yet somehow you think you could behave this way because it's not Walmart or the grocery store ... it's just some faceless game developer. maybe you should apply some RL experience you have with businesses you patronize to this situation to see how ridiculuous you guys sound. If you read anything (which you didn't) I posted originally you'd see that I did put in there why I agree with him and think you're being ridiculous. Saying that manually swapping builds is time consuming and remembering 10 different builds for mesmer is hard...but you somehow think him (and me) should be happy with it... and should be silent if we gotta pay that ridiculous price you came up with of 1200 gems per slot. And they're not even acc-wide. So we should be happy paying 1200gems per slot per char. Get a hold of yourself.

You can't tell me I'm not on topic here when you're the one never listening to people and all you do is find replies that would hurt little Anet's feelings and you go head first defending them. Many here are saying you don't understand, you've been called obtuse before and now again.Problem is not with us here, it's you.Plus you don't have answer to anything I said which is why you just kind of brushed it off ... but it's not like you ever listen to anyone anyway. Even @Jthug.9506 said you never gave him any reason why he's wrong, you NEVER give anybody reason why they're wrong which is why I said to you million times that all you do is pick least important bit out of the post, twist it and then say "no, cuz Anet"You even contradict your posts ... when @"Dalec.9853" said Anet changes their models if they don't work - to which you said no, you can't think of when they do, just to couple posts after say "if something doesn't work, Anet changes it, we've seen it happen before" ... You know no reason or logic. How much does Anet pay you to defend them like this?

We also joke that you're an undercover dev trying to justify/defend Anets choices and pricesI also saw you immediately go defensive earlier stating how you "don't defend Anet" when the guy you answered to didn't even say anything about it.... you must be scarred from when I said you're defending them with your life few days ago so you immediately go defensive and claim that you're not, plus, if you weren't you wouldn't bring it up out of nowhere.You definitely don't play the game in a way that would require you to swap builds all the time then, otherwise you'd understand why someone wouldn't be happy to have to manually swap it each time, it's incredibly time consuming... plus there are people like me who cannot remember million builds for mesmer so I have to have them all saved somewhere in order to know what I need to choose. In fact I wondered if you even play and you're offline every time I checked, so I doubt you're even playing much at all. As for anyone else, don't try to argue sense with Obtena....

only $21 ? ...try £500+ You should've just bought the skin on TP

It's probably going to be 600 gemsBut "reasonable price" would be that it's FREE and unlimited... like in GW1

The whole game needs some love, not just male norn... but they don't care.

I'd say that single and most frustrating thing in GW2 is GW2 itself.

You don't know that ... it's just your speculation. Why should they all the sudden not charge for features? That's a fallacy to think that because they offer something for free, people will spend more on cosmetic items. That doesn't even make sense. Because you can only buy so many templates and once you do, you don't give them any more money, while cosmetics keep coming and you keep buying... so no it's not just speculation, it's logic

One simple question to you then, no twisting words or adding them, simple yes or no... Do you think ArenaNet have ever changed their business model with GW2? I don't see where they have. I can see that they might be with how they are dealing with expansions. I know where you want to go with this; you aren't the first one to try this approach ... I'm ready. Let's continue. Well if he is not the first one to question you that, maybe it's a sign that you're in the wrong. And so far by your comment history, barely anyone agrees with you. Someone asking me a question is a sign I'm wrong? OK ... I'm going to let you think about why that doesn't make sense. I mean, if I'm wrong ... where? my premise is PRETTY simple ... Anet offers things in exchange for money from customers ... for some reason, you guys think this is some exception to that. You haven't explained why ... probably because we already have multiple instances of the exact same kind of feature being offered in exactly the same way since day 1. But don't let that stop you ... Please, now you tell me why I'm wrong ... or is that all? My point is, I saw many people say you're wrong and that you don't understand... That's par for the course. That's why we are having this discussion. No, I understand just fine. There isn't anything 'wrong' with how Anet offers these quantity-based features. That's for Anet to decide. Again, it's a business. They offer, people can buy or not. If there is a lack of 'correctness', people will let them know by not purchasing. It makes no sense to attach some morality to how this feature is sold ... but not other features that are offered in exactly the same way. That's dishonest. You're just proving my point, I wrote a wall of text for you to just snip half of one sentence and follow it by "no cuz Anet" No, I just didn't include it in the quote. It's got nothing to do with 'cuz Anet' ... that's just your spin because your actual arguments are so weak. What they are doing isn't exceptional. It's standard business practice ... there isn't a reason to complain about how these features are offered as a reason to change it. There isn't any right or wrong. It's simply how they decided to do it. You're attempts to criminalize that are sad. My arguments are not weak at all.I'm saying the exact same thing @Dalec.9853 is....That they shouldn't charge for it but make more cosmetics and charge for those instead and content. They'd earn far more that way even.
