I have no doubt that Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns is going to be big, both for the studio and its playerbase. It’s looking to add zones, new forms of progression, a new class, specializations for existing classes, and all other manner of goodies. Right now, it’s one of the hottest beta tickets in town.
And yet the more I hear about it, the less excited I’ve become. I used to enjoy Guild Wars 2 on a daily basis but for a variety of reasons have fallen out of love with it. I assumed that the expansion would rev my interest back up, but so far none of the features is really a “must play” to me. Plus, hearing that we’ll have even more platforming with the jungle zones is a real mood killer.
