GW2 needs many things, but easing new players into the "mechanics" isn't one of them. I started playing a month ago, and by level 10 I understood exactly what to do. I have no idea why they are wasting development resources on this, oh wait yes I do, it's because this game is everyone on this sites beloved B2P business model. How does a company make more money once their initial sales influx is over, sell to more people, which means change the beginning of the game to attract more players. It's clear that ANet doesn't care how long people play because the bulk of their money is made off box sales. Sub-less models FTW!!
