Default Realistic Guild Wars?

Im asking myself, how would people like it if guild wars was more realistic?

I mean that people die like really easily if they dont have armor and dont dodge attacks. It would add a lot of skill requirement, because you would have to time your skills, and be very careful about what armor you take, or what shield you use. A blinded person would be totaly useless, and attacking someone who just used lightning reflexes would leave you exposed to theyr damage whilst you could deal basically none. Then it would make tactical decisions more needed, because people would have to retreat more often, and they would have to plan theyr attacks and so on. But the enemy ai would have to be enchanced a bit to make them able to do stuff like retreat when needed, regroup, call for aid and stuff. And also it would just add a lot of feeling to run into a group of grawls and kill them all with a few slashes.

What do you guys think, would you like a realistic guild wars?

Maybe I'm missing something, but it sounds a lot like the way the game is now.

I only sign this if pugs will be enhanced too. If better AI will be implemented on aggros, prepare yourself to be pwnd every 5 secs, because your team mates will be typing "???" and "Huh?" all the time

My my, someone is trying to get off there citizen title.

Right now Guild Wars, is the most realistic I seen than more than most fantasy games. Take off your armor and run into a titan it shows how real it is.

Only thing I wanna see done is, punching when no weapon is equipped.

If I hit you with a hammer and inflict deep wound, I expect to see it visibly in the victim. It's not satisfying if it's only a brown arrow in health bar. Conclusion: Character models should have decals in them, cuts and bruises and so on, which disappear when healed.

And after eviscerate the target's guts should hang out. Too much of this type of realism would need a more restictive rating on the game.

Back when GW first came out/was beta, monsters would actually bleed onto the ground.

...why did they get rid of that? Sure the game is for "Teens" but look at games for Ps2, PC, etc that are Teen, they all have blood in them. It'd be nice to see the blood return actually.

If Guildwars was more realistic there would be no magic and warriors would do 1 hit kills. Maybe some rangers would get in a shot or two but everyone would use platemail armor anyway.

In fact they'd only use swords because axes get stuck and you have to do a lot of work to get them out and hammers are too heavy to swing around for a long period of time.

Also when you die the game uninstalls and their servers block your IP so you can't come back to play again.

Realism does not necessarily equal fun.

And in this case, it certainly wouldn't.

so how exatly would mesmer hex look like?.... lets say...Simathetic visage? all of a sudden you character becomes SUPER cute?...
or how about Backfire? only thing i can imagine is letterly a fire on your back thats waiting for you to cast.

and how about healing? you realise that to make 1 orison of healing, you would have to sit aside, take off armor, get the monk put bandaids on you, put armor back.... and with heal other? its gonna be same process but with STITCHES?... im happy it's such a fantasy world...

Yeah, after every rabbit kill, they have to lay in hospital for weeks, regenerating.

People would beg monks to join them, and even offer money.
