I guess this is really turning out to be a love it or hate it type of game. Not very helpful for people trying to decide to buy, when one person says it is the best ever and the next says it sucks.
Next to impossible to find anything objective when it comes to this game.
That's because the two extreme opinions are posted by the most vocal forumers. There are plenty of people who say the game is good or great, but because they don't go bananas and say "If you don't like this game you're retarded" (which sticks out like a big old target), then most people just pass their posts by. Forums are like a cancer, really... I don't even know why I keep coming back to this place.
Here's another chain event I did in charr homeland (15-25 lvl zone).
So charrs are fighting against the only charr legion/pack/tribe which is "evil" and that's the flame legion..
I found the lava bursting out of the ground from far away and I tought, wow, let's check this out... There's a vista near by so I might get that as well.
I went there and as soon as I started approaching the area I saw this charr which was yelling "take the upper part of the area" and so we did, we were figthing some flame legion charrs in the upper area until we cleared it so we can capture it... Then the lower area started being swarmed with charrs and we were ordered to help the other charrs fight their way to secure the area of the flame legion.
After securing the area the flame legion opens up a portal and they flee to regroup, but the portal still remains open and we're ordered to move forwards and enter the portal. We head into it and I find myself in this fortress with 4 stairways. One leads outside, and 1 is locked. I choose my path and head towards one of the two which are available, I find a mortar there but what can I do with it - I tried using it but it has no ammo in it!
I head back and choose to go down the 2nd stairway, the path is blocked by a flame legion fire veteran. I can't kill him alone so people started joining in and we finally cleared the way. As he fell he melted down the ice on the doors so the path is clear now, we can enter the room. We're inside, the room is covered in snow and ice, around the room are pillars and few of them are broken. In the middle is what it looks like a sword which is frozen and covered with snow. We're looking around the room to see what we can do to make it loose, and suddenly I look straight up and find a chain hanging down from the roof, but it's still too high, I can't reach it... I try going up the broken pillars and find my way up to the top of the pillars, they're all connected on top. So I walk around the room on it and find that on 1 side there's something which could bring me a bit closer to the chain and I can try jumping from there. I made it, the chain was pulled and the snow/ice was removed from the sword, we can pick it up now... We pickup the sword and move out of the room.
We'rein the room with 3 statues now, the person wielding the sword notices 1 statue is missing his sword, so he tries to place it in his hands. Suddenly doors open up and we can move on. We were going along the hall avoiding snake heads which breathe fire and we're fighting sharks and flame legion charrs a long the way. Suddenly we enter this big room with more snake heads on the wall, coffins around it and another locked doors.
We have no clue what to do. We're opening up the coffins, some icy torches are burning and there are some lava spear guns on the floor. We all are trying to open up the doors and have no idea how to do it. Then suddenly somoene says: "touch the icy torches, open up the coffins and destroy the air bubbles which are going upwards from the coffins, that'll shut down the snake heads!". And so we do it, it took some time before we made it, but we succeed.
Finally, the doors open and after the hallways and avoiding a few traps, we find ourselves facing a boss. He was medium sized, nothing spectacular The fight was really long and really hard, I counted over 25 of us killing him. He was using some kind of aoe spell which made the water boil up, alot of people died. We're killing him, keeping dots on him and trying to rez anyone who has fallen. We're developing some tactics on how to actaully kill him, we're swimming behind the pillars, healing, swimming down, changing "rooms", trying to get him down...
Finally, after a long fight, he's dead. Suddenly a chest opens up, plus he drops like 5 rare drop chests for us as well... I picked it up and went all the way back. I decided to walk up to the exit. I'm out now, I see there's a waypoint and a vista on this cliff which can't be accessed any other way but trough that event. I unlock the waypoint and make my way to the vista. Such a beautiful view. Spectacular. I will continue my adventure. I jumped from the cliff and dived into the water, looking up towards the cliff which gave me such an awesome event. I haven't seen anything similar before.
Nice story, so much in this game to see if you don't just hammer thorygh it
