Am I doing something wrong?
So I'm new to GW2 but not to the franchise. I invested I think somewhere around 1055 hours on the first game and I loved every minute of it. I decided that since I had some time this summer I'd try the new one out. To get myself hyped up about it, I watched the trailers, mmo manifesto, etc, and then bought the game.
I feel like I have GOT to be doing something wrong. I've invested around 50 hours into the game. (45 on a Mesmer and 5 on a guardian) and I just don't know. In the manifesto they talked about how easy leveling was going to be and that the grind was going to be eliminated, but my main toon is only a level 36? In guild wars 1, I could power level a guy in 2 to 3 days and have him off on his way,, it didn't feel so monotonous and exhausting. Based on what the devs said I was expecting a different experience than the one I've received.
I've done countless "**** ten centaur" quests, granted they don't attach a number value which makes it ambiguous as opposed to different. I haven't made it past three zones outside of Lions Arch, and I started to hate playing since I've surpassed level 25. The experience seems to flow so slowly, and I feel so disjointed with the story. Everyone I've talked to told me mesmers in particular become really fun at level 80... But god at level 36 that seems so far off.
This is an honest question. Am I doing something wrong?
