feedback on their characterization and dialogue.
Oh my god I just read the wiki, and Yao is agender!!!! They're probably gonna be the most prominent not-cis NPC ever in the game!!! Hell yeah!!!!!
I looked through the wiki, and I knew about Sya already, but I completely missed Myrun Skialkin somehow! Still only 3 NPCs, but 9 years of baby steps get you somewhere!
I'm a little late getting back to you, but yes! It's time we do better about including non-binary characters. We loved Jormag, but wanted to create NB human (as in non-creature, non-robot) characters as well. Baby steps, as you said.
Yao is an internal favorite, and I'll say that there are other NPCs coming in End of Dragons to keep an eye out for.
Please say hello to Joko and Madame Cookie
Metal Legion Boom Box when :(.
I don't have any control or input over that kind of thing, unfortunately.
...actually good human bards...
Heyyy...😢

All the action will be streamed over at MightyTeapot so make sure to head there if you wan...

from field is an @arena.net email address, the response would go to our mail servers (unless there's a man-in-the-middle attack)
just a nitpick, but you can specify different from: and reply-to: addresses
oh, interesting, I was unaware of that "feature"
Hey Paul, is there a way to make these emails look more legit? Please look into that if you got time to avoid this sort of understandable confusion
I'm not sure that there is. It is an email from an @arena.net email address, whose call to action is to reply. There are no links in it, and since the from field is an @arena.net email address, the response would go to our mail servers (unless there's a man-in-the-middle attack). I fully support being hyper-vigilant for scams, but I don't know what can be done to make this look more legitimate.
In lieu of the scams running rampant right now, would it be better to post in a discord or on the forums for volunteers instead? I'm junking all email and calls that aren't from people I know these days.
that would increase the selection bias to the people who frequent the discords and forums, unfortunately. Everyone has an email associated with their account, so we can get send emails to people who play the game modes we're interested in for the specific survey. There is still selection bias in the people that choose to respond of course, but there's not much we can do about that.
edit: I should note that I'm not on the analytics team, so I'm not certain of their rationale, but this seems correct to me.
Ash from Palet town?
Confirmed, but it's Pallet Town.
This is a legitimate email from ArenaNet, from one of our user researchers.
Ok, they removed a week (compared to the "fall" announcement). Now it ends on 02/11 rather than 09/11.
Still 1 more than usual.
Proper date is Oct 5 through Nov 9. Blog post is being corrected.
Psst. Just wrote up a small update on this on the forums:
https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/topic/102292-end-of-dragons-update-to-instance-boundaries/
This is beautiful!
Tirzah, are you back? O,o
Lol no, I guess I still have my flair on this account. Feel free to remove it mods! I'm a ghost ooooh~~
ALWAYS WATCHING >:3
Read moreThe only problem I have as a longterm player that there is just too much stuff that the game doesn't tell you that you absolutely have to look up. Parts of the game are reliant on the wiki. Mystic forge receipes that are required to progress on specific goals is just a small example. Many collections and other quest goals are also not explained and resolvable by the game alone.I bet I am not even the only one thinking that. You must have had that discussion internally before too. Why do I know that as a player? Because of the tutorial quests update and the new leveling experience update with the reward popups that explain you something new which wasn't an option. The game needed it. It was a good step in the right direction but there is still so many areas in the game where the player has to look it up on third party sites because the game explains so little so often.
I think it is because the achievement system was never supposed to transform into the quest system that it ...
I hear ya.
You are an individual with impeccable taste.
It's pretty fantastic. :)
