While i really haven't played much of GW2 for the past two months now, the Achievement rework patch had me back in for a bit. Anet decided to retroactively give out a bunch of stuff, including Zenith weapons skins, based on your total achievement points. This sounded great in theory until i logged in to see myself over 3000 points behind one of my friends. We sort of had a nice healthy competition going for a while, which was pretty back and forth and quite fun. Unfortunately now i see myself never catching up to him, which is perfectly fine, but also a real bummer.
Part of the problem i have with the game is this exact aspect. Those points can never be made up again with all of the temporary content being released every 2 weeks now. Sure this encourages players to log in more in fear of missing something, but it also punishes players for playing their way. Needless to say I'm not a fan of temporary content, especially when it rewards what could basically be called GW2's endgame equivalent in achievement points. The rewards looks pretty spiffy though!
