Well GWdat said it would happen and it has, you can now choose your skill descriptions to be short and sweet

Make the game seem a little less....magical imho though

opinions?

Cale Roughstar · Mar 13, 2008, 08:34 PM // 20:34

Dont actually care. Picked concise, but that is just me.

Aba · Mar 13, 2008, 08:36 PM // 20:36

so dumbed down......a 2 year old could understand

Horus · Mar 13, 2008, 08:36 PM // 20:36

some other updates would be more need than this

-Martian- · Mar 13, 2008, 08:36 PM // 20:36

Some people need that.

Dallcingi · Mar 13, 2008, 08:37 PM // 20:37

Concise for me, who cares about grammar

PyrAnkh · Mar 13, 2008, 08:37 PM // 20:37

Picked traditional. Pointless update.

upier · Mar 13, 2008, 08:38 PM // 20:38

Hooray!
It comes with a toggle option from the start!

Ekelon · Mar 13, 2008, 08:41 PM // 20:41

The new update brought the ability to choose between shortened and concise descriptions and the traditional length ones.

I'd like to see which skill description everyone will now use. I myself, am staying with traditional. I like being technical with everything and traditional enables me to explore everything about the skill.

P.S. The good thing, though, is that you can toggle it!

There's also much debate on whether this is really necessary... I think Hero AI updates would have been better than this, but then again, and job like this could've safely been given to new interns at Anet or something like that need to have busy work to do, haha. Discuss!

Cebe · Mar 13, 2008, 08:41 PM // 20:41

*gives Anet a blank look*

Was that needed? I never saw anything relating to that in Sardelac!

Well, Traditional wins for me. I don't want to have potentially important pieces of information left out of my skill descriptions. Out of ALL the things to go and "update"....

Tyla · Mar 13, 2008, 08:43 PM // 20:43

Traditional.
I like more detail.

Nikki Moonlight · Mar 13, 2008, 08:43 PM // 20:43

Traditional here too. Too used to the old descriptions, it'd be odd changing for me.

Danax · Mar 13, 2008, 08:43 PM // 20:43

Next up: Concise Mission Objectives!

Objective: Kill evil dude.

Dallcingi · Mar 13, 2008, 08:44 PM // 20:44

lalala concise anyways.

Wyat Hawke · Mar 13, 2008, 08:44 PM // 20:44

...I haven't seen anyone ever suggest this anywhere, but more options is always good. Debatable however if this was the most "urgent" update they could come up with though.

Reflect · Mar 13, 2008, 08:45 PM // 20:45

shortened, no need of reading no needed parts of skills :}

Shanaeri Rynale · Mar 13, 2008, 08:45 PM // 20:45

It won't affect Ursan players, as they don't need to read the descriptions. Just change them to '1','2'. '3' etc.

I can't see the point really. They must have spent hours editing skill texts, when they could have been fixing things that needed it.

Julia-Louis Dreyfus · Mar 13, 2008, 08:45 PM // 20:45

the mend condition description has always annoyed the shit out of me, now i can stop looking at it

Its been requested a few times they clean up messy skill descriptions such as "negative condition" on crystal wave.
