I saw a picture of a racoon hat thing. I wants it badly >.>

I don't want WoW fluff in this game. You already have a variety of mounts.

How does "fluff" effect you negatively? If you don't want it or participate in it, you don't have to. You see how that works?

And four mounts =! mount collecting

I hope the comment one person made about vanity pets being from WoW is being sarcastic. Ragnarok private server vanity pets are the ultimate vanity pets.

Fluff I want

-Vanity pets with their own special equipment, that talk.
-Marriage system
-Player housing
-Mannequins on which to display old sets of armor.
-Fun, quick, unscheduled GM-hosted games. Like find the GM hiding in the world, win a destiny egg or whatever.

This game is lacking Korean fluffy charms. More Tuwangi, less srs bznass, please!

I agree with...vanity pets that do NOT talk...NPCs are annoying already
marriage system
player housing
player furniture (gotta furnish that home)

and please...no fishing...there'd be no point to it considering we can't "eat". Maybe card games or dice games?

Soldiers on the front line have dice and cards...

The frog drum is the best thing in the game right now.

Should they bring in gambling, the game would never end. Never underestimate the power of addiction.

Um, I do? Not everything relevant to WoW is terribad for the sake of it being relevant to WoW...
And oh yeah, a variety of mounts. Everyone is either riding a Horse or a Lion.

Anyway, I feel the EXACT same way.
We're on the same page Lanikitty.

The game is great, but some of the best things that draw in an audience are the little things, not core features. (I'm looking at you, awesome combat.)
We need MORE of those little things, that "fluff".

Examples of "fluff" already in the game include:
Max gathering hats.
Fire snaps (those fireworks).
The mansion with random NPC's experimenting on a frog beside Velika.

I want to see:
Elaborate easter eggs
Hidden and Non-hidden areas to explore, not relevant to the main storyline.
Carnivals, Fairs etc. in the main city and other towns.

It sets up an expectation of you getting whatever you whine for loud enough.

Oh, and ... this game is two weeks old in NA, one year in Korea. It takes TIME to develop content when we don't even have a single expansion yet, and you already want content in the game that is established after YEARS in other games.

Should there be extracurricular stuff? Yes! And there is....

But you want extracurricular that derives largely from the expectation that WoW did a thing that was good, and that's set up these vanity elements of the game that involve almost no real outworld or in-dungeon excursions. I'd rather have more out-world stuff, both to promote players actually engaging in content and PvP, things that force players to group up such as high-reward, high-power world bosses, and so on. Things that make this a GAME that works instead of just you and your console. That's what pet collecting and mount collecting is like in WoW, that's what "minigames" are like in FFXI and WoW, and that's what they're going to be like in GW2.

The problem with WoW in this regard is that it turned into something you could solitaire. The problem with FFXI in this regard is that it turned into 4-5 hours or 3 days sitting in town waiting for a party to show up.

I want a game that involves you with others, but doesn't FORCE it. TERA is working to make content both soloable and also low-mannable so as to promote players grouping together, but not force it, while at the same time permitting things like BAM farming for the fun it is (and I think it is) while also achieve-farming (which I do, and do with others).
