    Prelude's been on Test for a while, sounded a lot like the whole "void tempest" thing from before TSO.

    I wish the old scavenger hunts pre-xpac were still a thing. Many fond memories for those.

    Pre-ordering is definitely NOT something I will be doing!

    Chaos Descending - appropriately prophetic?

    Again a whole lot of bullshit flying around about what items u can get in the prelude event (if you sub) and for pre ordering and nothing about the lore, the settings, the baddies or showing off any videos like any other developer would do when announcing an expansion.

    So predictable. My reaction: Yawn x Infinity

    About what I expect from producer's letters these days: a bunch of words saying, essentially, nothing.

    Coming up next: And it has crossbows.... they're super cool! Best thing ever! Don't you love the crossbows?

    You guys missed the most important info in that announcement... POP is now 50% of.. hurry and buy the superdeluxeultra version to get the special bonus items that never again will be available!! How can we miss that opportunity??

    Bitterness and sarcasm aside... the only info about the expansion we got is the name.

    They told us which planes some of the instances will be in!! That's 'information'!!

    /end sarcasm

    I was thinking that the new 'places' they've named will actually be instances, accessed from the Coliseum of Valor.....

    I translated all that "information" as:

    "We have managed to take content that should have been included with the last expac and sell it to you as a new expac!

    Yep, we are mighty proud of ourselves for putting even less effort into content development than we have in the past, and best of all for us, we know people will buy it anyway because (1) You've been bored for 11 months, and (2) you guys will buy anything as long as we dangle some pixel stuff. Spend $140 you get even better pixels!

    Pre-order now so we can make money by having you de-bug our product for us!

    Yay!"

    I predicted that earlier this month. Can I have my psychic cookies now?

    At least it seems DBG ***MIGHT*** have learned something: Appears they are no longer making any attempt to hide that what they are selling is crap.

    The last several years have reeked of desperate dishonesty and manipulation. This year it kinda feels like: "Yeah, we barely put any effort into this. Whatever."

    That is the impression I've gotten from the prelude 'quest'.

    Only inquisiters, swashies, dirges, bruisers, and guardians can use cross bows - They come with a 5% resolve debuff clickie (18 minute reuse).

    Having finally done the quest...and read up on a certain bug older toons have run into...my first instinct was dead on: They DID recycle the Void Tempest quest from back in the day, just changed the ornamentation on it...to the extent they missed one point and it was looking for Void Shreds instead of the new stuff.

    I mean seriously guys, if you're going to be lazy and recycle content, at least have the self-respect to make sure it doesn't have some bug in it that makes it blatantly obvious, hmm?

    EDIT: No "basically" about it, it's a cut-paste-edit job straight up.

    How dare you, sir, suggest, even by inquisitorial implication that a ranged specialist class, which primarily uses bows, should be able to use a crossbow.

    Now go to your corner and think about what you've done.

    Do you even get the Tempest Chaser Title or did they change it to Elemental Chaser?

    There is a title, it's "Elemental" somethingorother, so they paid that much attention at least.
