The GW2 system is basically a continuation of leveling. You do stuff to get achievements (what XP is for leveling) and at some points you get a chest (like the level up while leveling). It's a carrot for to keep you playing.<br /><br />The way I would improve it is to make all achievements repeatable (and infinite repeatable) like the dungeon explorator or agent of entropy. If you always play with a hammer you would get more points with the "Hammer Master" and you wouldn't be forced to swap to greatsword after 5000 kills with your hammer. However you play it should progress some achievement somewhere.Kringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03128630042421602039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-35944778402957825172013-11-08T00:00:55.653-06:002013-11-08T00:00:55.653-06:00As an explorer-type, I really look forward to your...As an explorer-type, I really look forward to your follow up.

What annoys me a bit is how influential they can be with them.<br /><br />I remember reading somewhere that righteous indignation is extremely addictive to humans because of the intense endorphin rush it causes. It would definitely explain a lot of the Internet.Coreushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10258450322199352185noreply@blogger.com
