    I mentioned this in another thread, but I think the playerbase is meant to be undergoing a shift in philosophy with AWA. Previously, I'd log into a character and either check my journal for current quests or open my map and look for icons that showed content I hadn't yet completed. Now that I have no way of knowing which delves, WBs, etc I've done on any given character, I need a different drive to prompt my next action. It seems like we're supposed to move away from "I haven't done this delve on this character yet, so now I'll go do that" and toward "I've done everything on some character, so now I'll go do anything I want".

    Before, we were plotting our characters' paths separately and pursuing content on one as discrete from another. And we can still do that, we just don't have the helpful map markers to light our way and so it's difficult to keep track of where we're at with any given character. So if you want them to have individual experiences and narratives, you'll have to plan them out yourself using out of game tools pen and paper or a spreadsheet or some such. How do you know which dungeons your character has done? You don't, so just do any dungeon you want. I'm not saying this is the "right" approach, or a great approach that most players will enjoy adopting, and I'm not really over the hurdle myself, but...this is where we are and it seems like this is how we're expected to approach the game now.

    That would be nice if we had some way to track what we've already done. The quest journal doesn't let us know which quests have already been done, delves and world bosses being completed just killed exploration, loss of character achievements means I have no clue where to go next because there's no history left. Like I could just go to every zone and see if there are any loose quests, but that takes way longer, and is much more tedious than looking those things up when we had character based achievements. I do know the gist of what my alts have done because I know their RP stories, but I'm not going to remember every delve or every loose quest. I tend to blow through Main Stories first since they tend to hurry you from one objective to the next, and my character is hurrying to stop the next world stopping event. Then I go back and try to tie all the loose ends. If I do this on an alt I haven't played for a couple years, I'm going to be so lost. We need a way to track what we've done.

    should have taken part in the discussions earlier. It's too late now, unfortunately.

    It was too late before the discussions even took place. AWA was set in stone before it ever hit the PTS.

    The players didn’t have any say in the “Q&A”, but they’re sure talking with their wallets.
