I really believe these two fractals are peak endgame GW2. I’m unsure if ArenaNet is continuing to build fractals, but if they are, they really should make more based on these. Every day, I see so many people doing them and having genuine, interactive fun. I really hope they’re still building these out!!
Anyone else want to give love to Ensolyss, Arkk, and the others? Show ArenaNet how much you love em!
External link →They have confirmed that they are still working on Fractals, but the dev who was lead designer on Nightmare and Shattered Observatory has sadly left Anet.
I'm actually still here at ArenaNet. After Nightmare and Shattered Observatory, I was asked to move over to Living World to help as a content designer on Season 4 (The Olmakhan, and the Episode 5 Kralk Battle) and now The Icebrood Saga.
Hey, it's really nice to see love for Nightmare and Shattered, even three years later. They were designed from the ground up for replay value, but I never thought they'd still be this popular.
It's my intention to try and take the best parts of these fractals and apply it where we can to future content (fractals or otherwise).
I can't promise anything specific, but I can take the feedback in this thread to future conversations to help guide our path.
What aspects of these keep you coming back?
What do you wish was different?
What could we have done better?
What did we do well?
Seriously, thank you for the support. It's been a tough year and seeing this post today really lifts the spirits. Y'all are awesome.
