I never said it wasn't possible, I said you're going to have a hard time if you are playing alone, which is what I was speaking about. (And in case you're not aware this game has no kill or loot stealing, so you can play together with other people who happen to be in the same area without needing to be in a party, which often makes things easier.) Open world content is designed to be playable solo, and will scale to the number of people who are around at the time. You will have to do open-world content in between personal story chapters to gain enough XP to level up, but it's entirely possible to do that solo - either literally alone or with whoever happens to be around at the time.

(You could even buy each episode individually but I wouldn't recommend that because it works out more expensive than buying a full season.)ДЄlso you absolutely do not need to buy a level 80 booster (or use other work-arounds to level up) to play the story, even if you play solo. So you could space purchases out by buying the game (which gets you the core game, HoT and PoF) and then buying living world seasons one at a time as you get to them. The only reason to play them in order is if you want to follow the storyline and avoid spoilers by seeing everything in chronological order.ДЄlso the order of releases is:Personal StorySeason 1 recapSeason 2Heart of ThornsSeason 3Path of FireSeason 4Season 5 Or you could play HoT and PoF and then go back to the living world later on.

You could, if you wanted to, play them in reverse order and you would still be able to do everything, and return to anything you've done whenever you want (except the personal story). But that's the only accurate part of your post.Д®ach storyline or release functions independently. I agree that it's misleading and annoying that there's no way to buy everything together in one package and I have no idea why Anet don't offer that option. If you're poor you can find a good guild and they will usually help you cover the costs.Д«asically the game is split between boxed and DLC content to allow for frequent updates. The expansions are the only content that you have to buy with real money, everything else can be had using in-game gold if you own a non-free copy of the game. You should also understand that gems are not 'premium' like in other games and do not have to be purchased with cash, many players convert gold to gems.

They include their own maps, storylines and exclusive rewards and are probably worth more than the price ArenaNet charges for them, and in the future you will automatically get all Living Story for free just by logging in at the right time, so its really not as bad as it may seem at first glance. Oh and Season 4 is still being released - we're on episode 4 now and we're expecting at least 2 more after said:Oh wow.so in order to see that content I have to buy 3400 gems on top of both expansions? That's kind of disheartening.The Living Story episodes are responsible for about half of the max-level PvE content in the game. There's a short re-cap in-game and longer ones on Youtube but that's it. They finally stopped doing that and switched to permanent releases, but sadly Season 1 has never been made available again. would be introduced every month or every 2 weeks and then removed again to make way for the next update. Living Story Season 1 (currently unavailable)Дepending on how long you played after launch you might remember some of Season 1 - it was all temporary updates.If you're not interested in the story you may want some of them for the maps, the items or achievements. If you want to play the full story in order you'll need them. They add new story and (in Season 3 and 4) new maps. The living world/story is basically DLC which sits between the expansions.
