And besides the voice acting it didnt really bring anything innovative or big to the table. All the major features are being released in 1.2. Legacy system, gear customization, guildbank, pvp rankings etcetc. In my eyes they simply released the game atleast 4 months to early, maybe even 6. Not to mention truely some of the most horrible customer service (ingame and irl) i have ever had the misfortune of seeing.
Its not a horrible game, but this has bitten them in the ass. And Arenanet seems to not want that, no one should want this. And they make the game untill they are happy with it. I cannot imagine anyone at Bioware was happy with releasing the game in the state it was, but it was no doubt an executive descision for the sake of profits.
I'd rather take a really good game over a crappy game but 4 months sooner. Anyone who disagree's is not really a gamer imo, hell id question your general sanity.
