Why shouldn't we get more titles?

Each time a player suggest a new title in Sardy, you get a bunch of player that actually do not give their opinion on the title in question - but rather just give a generic reply about not wanting any additional titles.
Now, I am not suggesting that every bat-shit crazy idea should make it into the game - but as a general rule, I actually approve adding additional titles to the game. The titles in question though need to fit the core GW rule - you shouldn't be rewarded with gameplay-altering advantages just because you have massive amounts of time (yes, I am FULLY aware this rule was broken ages ago - but it's actually a superb rule and I don't see why we can't just accept that things went sour and make sure we don't do it again). Which means - the new titles that I support have to be purely about "pretty".
I also don't have a problem with new titles making it easier to achieve God Walking. I actually see it as an opportunity because it gives the players a chance to achieve something completely useless in a variety of ways - rather than needing to follow a very strict path. I mean, if I ever went after God - I'd need to look into stuff like elite capping or drinking, despite the fact that I really don't care about that. What additional titles would achieve is give players more options - giving us the freedom to do more things that we actually like and actually be rewarded by a crappy title for it.


So, why the hate towards adding new titles?

the game isn't about titles... its about playing for fun.....
then again i don't mind, if you can have fun at the same time then feel free to add more titles.
it would piss off alot of the community if theyve already done whatever needs to achieve these titles but who cares, theres always gunna be btiching and crying over any situation..good or bad

More titles means less people have to do the hard ones to get the same rank of Kind of a big deal that other people had to do to get it. There would also have to be more ranks after God and we don't need 50 + titles to max.

Because the team Anet has on GW1 is pretty minimal at the moment, and that's why they should stick to game balancing or other more important things

Who gives a shit? All it'll mean is more people wandering around with GWAMM, and they're easy enough to ignore as it is. (The problem titles are Hero and Zaishen, with their annoying emotes.)

If you want to do something, do it. You don't need a little bar to tell you that you've done it. Let's not waste dev time with useless things.

Most people that hate on the idea of new titles are just GWAMM who don't want their ePeen to be lessened.

True.

Mind you I don't think much of GWAMM, not as much as a champion title.

I'd just hate to see the GWAMM title, which is nearly in my reach (only that forsaken Kurzick title to max...) gets bumped to 35 or 40 maxed titles, with only a few nice Titles added (quest title and such) and the rest consisting of pure grind.

Because what else can be made into a reasonable title?

Because GWAMM contributes to favor, so it is a maxed title. And just like every other title, you can't have a higher title than the max title.

and because a-net says so. :-)

GWAMM isn't much anyway. PvE titles are easy/buyable. Hero and Champion are about the only titles that are worth the prestige they show.

All in the eye of the beholder. Those titles mean absolutely nothing as far as I am concerned.

Which is exactly why there should be more titles.

there's enough titles at the moment no more thanks

They don't mean anything because they can be bought just like any other title. They used to be a great indicator of how experienced someone was in a certain game environment. Now that people have bought champ 8 accounts and champ and fame points every double weekend, they have become pretty much useless.

so yea /agree.

And there isn't a good reason for why they can't add other titles in the game. I'd rather them spend their time on other things but that doesn't mean they shouldn't add more titles for those who actually care.

If only they didn't make Z-Keys tradable......

Title for suggesting new titles. Go.

There's hardly any achievement in the game that isn't part of some title track. What other titles would you add that aren't ridiculously contrived? (And don't say 'questing' -- that would require a systemic overhaul of the way quests work and Anet simply does not have the manpower to redo perfectly working systems.)

Let me put it this way:
1. we dont need more grind.
2. why should you get to max gwamm by doing fun titles. i.e. I had to max all those shitty boring grind titles; therfore so should you!

and scrape...twb sweets/ party itmens...drink anyone? Hik.

I know a good one a TIME PLAYED Title. Those that put in 4000 hours or more get the title and it increases their stamina in the game by +10% faster play speed. It also gives them +10% increase to drop rates vs casual players.

the only reason I wouldn't want more titles is because it takes long enough to max the ones we have already
