Cooperation is key

Cooperation is key. Often unnecessary and annoying in GW2, but key (whatever 'key' means).

I found that one especially amusing, given that GW2, so far, is the MMO that most encourages you to just disregard other players and do whatever you want. The game mechanics don't require you to even speak to another human being. You just wander into the area where they happen to be and swing your weapon a few times. No, you don't need to tank anything, or heal anyone. Just zerg zerg zerg.




If you don't like where gaming is heading, stop giving your money to the people who are taking it in that direction.
