Yea this not going to end well.
Matter fact let me line it up.
"No trinity, no soul."
"No forced social mechanics, not a social game."
"Not P2W, but because I dislike the game it's P2W."
"Not an MMORPG, because I say so."
"Game sucks."
"No meaningful stuff, cause well one I can't get stronger and stronger to be God like."
"Good luck getting good gear cause I can't seem to manage my own in game currency so I'll blame the devs and just lie and say the only way to get gold is by rl cash."
"Game is not a sandbox."
"To each his/her own."
By the way as a side note, I feel this should be in the review section.

I'm not afraid to tell trolls what they [need] to hear, even if that means for me to have an forced absence afterwards.
P2P LOGIC = If it's P2P it means longevity, overall better game, and THE BEST SUPPORT EVER!!!!!(Which has been rinsed and repeated about a thousand times)
Common Sense Logic = P2P logic is no better than F2P Logic.
You forgot::
"No raiding"
"No depth or shallow game" which as far as I can tell usually means no raiding or trinity. Cause trinity is the only way roles can be defined.
eview section shouldn't matter this is the first online game besides torchlight i have fun in i like my guild my server is awesome people constantly talking in one day i made 20 lvls and done shit that would of take me months to do solo. BTW i know someone wills ay it i don't care if my grammar sucks so yeah
Ah yes forgot those and yea your right about the depth or shallow game part, that's usually what it comes down to these days.
@OP: Fair enough but I'm just letting you know how threads like this usually end up being far as posts go.
Then usually fans of the game(Like me) would counter those above posts, only concluding to the sheer fact that the game isn't for everyone, yet you have those that believe "Because the game isn't for me, it shouldn't be for you either." Then vice versa.

Yeah, I think this sums it up pretty accurately unfortunately. I was about to counter those typical complaints but you reminded me it's nothing that hasn't been argued to death before, and it doesn't get anywhere.
I'll just say GW2 is a great mmo and I've enjoyed it since the beginning. Don't let anyone ruin your fun d00f. All my prior guildies disappeared but it's easy to just find another guild still playing and active when that happens.
Welcome to the fam.
If you need someone to quest with ya, send me a PM.

I understand you may feel there is a point to your post, however in my opinion it has come off as a troll post in disguise.
That is not a troll. If you look at ANY GW2 thread there will ALWAYS be multiple posts like the above. If people don't like the game that is fine, but to seem to belittle a person who DOES like the game comes off as trolling or just arrogance.
This without the sarcasm.
I've never quit within 1 week of hitting level cap in any game but Guild Wars 2, but it managed to pull it off. PvP feels like a spam-fest, and so does PvE. In dungeons you literally just faceroll everything because there's no dedicated healing or tanking. It's the worst PvE experience I've ever had in my entire life.
Every game I have played was like that until you actually understood the mechanics and skills (like synergy of skills in the game). Then that goes away. A great example was Rift, when it first came out. People were complaining and not really thinking how to play the builds - so many builds got nerfed into oblivion because people were whining just like you are.
You have not played since A.Net has patched things but you are assuming nothing has changed and it has. Please make sure you put your opinion in quotes with, 'I am a hater and this is how I think. I have only played it initially but have not since'.
I am happy there is not dedicated healing or tanking - that makes the game feel cheesy anymore to me.
Not to mention but if the game was built on a holy trinity set up, especially with dungeons, cut the difficulty by the new temporary dungeon in half.

Truth be told, i am enjoying it more now than at launch. They did some fix here and there.

The Deep Web is sca-ry.
Some people really put forth some well thought out arguments about some of the things in that list. I think to say "its not a mmorpg because i said so" is trivializing the arguments.

Just like one can do with any MMO game and likely with more pages?
That's why those other games exist. And those of us get tired of waiting around for main healers forever, are greatful to not have to do it sometimes!
So there's arguments on both sides.
Seems a lot of people are enjoying this MMO. Although I scratch my head as to why, probably one of those most shallow/boring gaming experiences I've ever had. Although the game has a lot of polish I'll give it that. Anyway that's just my personal opinion, if this is what people actually like I can't tell them otherwise.
