I do cool things with communities online, and write about it (@rockpapershot). Still loving @GuildWars2.

the Jimothies in LA really are free #GuildWars2

The driving test:

There is currently a free Black Lion Chest Key on the BLTP in #GuildWars2. And it's giftable!

[Krathor (Duke) @Krath0r]

Been a while!

For something a bit different I've put together a (somewhat cheeky) look back at this year's Festival of the 4 Winds in Guild Wars 2.

Music is "Summer Vibes" by kulakovka - it's royalty free.

[Krathor (Duke) @Krath0r]

Ultimately, even though the events remained popular, my enthusiasm died out because I realised I was at the ceiling of what I could reasonably achieve without additional support. ArenaNet could have easily prevented that if their engagement had been consistent.

[Krathor (Duke) @Krath0r]

@Snebzor hey Sneb, I'm just catching up on the latest TeaTime and your points around the lack of visibility for community events really resonated with me. I do have direct experience with hosting casual PvE events back in 2013-2015 which ArenaNet did, occasionally, help promote.

[Krathor (Duke) @Krath0r]

Moreover, when I asked for some more direct support from ArenaNet (outside of posts on Twitter and Facebook), I was treated quite patronisingly - even though I was choosing to spend my free time hosting these events. It really discouraged me.

@lara_irl Not caring about stats on gear, and only going for the hallowed "Exotic" name - even if it was just PVT!

[Krathor (Duke) @Krath0r]

@Willow_gw2 how???

[Krathor (Duke) @Krath0r]

Is this a joke, @YouTube? There are no options! The answer is, "Very".

Weekly reminder to get your Antique Summoning Stones from the vendor in Arborstone! #GW2 #GuildWars2

[Krathor (Duke) @Krath0r]

@rookuri_ @MUA4ever agreed (although cairn is W4, not W2 :D)

[Krathor (Duke) @Krath0r]

@The_Noxxi it wasn't really until i started raiding that i really grasped the importance of all the boons, what cc skills make a difference, how the different classes work together etc. and yet i had managed to participate in the game for almost 10 years to that point in ignorance

[Krathor (Duke) @Krath0r]

@The_Noxxi that was pretty cool, and tbf i agree with mostly all of it. i think people massively underestimate the complexity of GW2 combat, and that is driven in part by how the image of the game portrayed through marketing is one of a vast world to explore, not a complex system it is

[Krathor (Duke) @Krath0r]

neat :D - thanks to raiding with @RPS_GW2
