Hi.

My nick is Aeranima (Alias: Fredrik Nilsson), founder and lead director of a small, unregistered gaming company. I just want to give you my personal thoughts on features for Guild Wars 2.

I think you should be cautious about the fact that you don't allow Mounts in Guild Wars 2. I personally think it's not a bad idea to remove them but due to the fact that you wont be allowed to discover airborne areas (in other words; "Fly"), I think you should consider replacing that future with something else.

I know you guys are thinking; "we replaced the Mounts with Portals" but that's not my argument here. Portals are a great idea but since you have totally removed the "Flying" feature -- I know many people will be turning their backs to this release.

My suggestion is that you replace that feature with something else such as; a skill called "Parachuting" for the Engineer class maybe? Do you see where I am heading? I'm not talking about flying upwards -- I'm talking about landing safely when jumping of a steep edge without dying. This way you will keep the "Flying" feature (which many players like to have in an MMO), and still enable players to experience airborne environments in GW2.

I hope you take this under consideration. I personally will play this game with or without the "Flying" feature.

Best regards,

Aeranima (Fredrik Nilsson)
