Tiny People, Tiny Posts – An Asura Week Review

Asura Week is over and it was a … revelation to me. A short race means a reasonably short blog post apparently, but maybe I’m just used to the long blog post the sylvari week brought us. Think of it what you will, this race week still gave us some information, and something for me to ponder about. And that is a great accomplishment, looking at the fact that the asura sometimes use words that make a story a lot more complicated. Continue reading

How To Get A Painting In A Video – A GamesCom 2011 Trailer Review

Some blog about the PvP information we just received, others about the small parts of the demo that were posted online. But I’m going to blog about what really struck me today: the Guild Wars 2 GamesCom 2011 Trailer. Although some footage was recycled, a very big part of the trailer was brand new, epic footage. Guild Wars 2, you never get old. Prepare for a blog post containing 40 images. Continue reading

Planting A Seed – A Sylvari Week Review

The Sylvari Week is over and soon, we’ll all be able to see them in the demos at GamesCom and PAX. To sum up the week: great. And to sum up the things we discovered: it’s all in the details. Continue reading

Where Was My Invitation? – A Fanday Review

Well, I’m a little insulted that I didn’t get an invitation, but I guess I don’t have enough visitors to be called “popular”, so… I’m still very grateful for all the information, pictures and even some videos we got. Underwater combat and dungeons. That’s what the official visit to the offices of Guild Wars 2 were all about. And let’s not forget the subject that is even closer to being released: the Winds of Change.

I Wanna Cuddle Them – A Quaggan Post

Quaggan, a friendly, fat dolphin looking race has emerged in Tyria. Being driven away by those horrible krait, they went from living on the bottom of the ocean, being almost unknown, to living in little lakes and rivers. Why didn’t they fight? Why didn’t they just blast those krait instead of running and making themselves known to murdering pirates and other enemies? Well, because they’re afraid to get mad. Continue reading

Do You Get A Map When Visiting? – A Lion’s Arch Post

A video, a blog, a map, we’ve all seen it a while ago. Lion’s Arch was born a while ago, changed because of the rising of the Dragons and became strong, more beautiful and, most importantly, bigger than ever. And when I say bigger, I mean it’s huge. Continue reading

Let’s Bring On The Metal – A Charr Week Review

Who doesn’t want a hot, sexy warrior in its bed? If it weren’t for those claws and the fact that they had some major issues in the past, I think humans would get along with these beasts. But who am I to change the past. Charr week is over, and it was some heavy stuff. No, seriously, metal is heavy. Continue reading

Well, It’s Easy To Criticize – A Guild Wars (2) And MMORPG Story And Opinion

While I was waiting and reading the stuff from the charr week, I started to wonder: why do I enjoy this game? Why is it so appealing? Why don’t I play another MMO? The answer was fairly simple. But, being me, I had to take it to the next level and couldn’t stop thinking about it until it was a whole blog post. Continue reading

Playing As A Shadow While Being A Bodybuilder – A PAX East Demo Review

Well, it’s been a while since I’ve written something. Sorry for that. But that doesn’t mean I forgot about Guild Wars 2. Actually, I never stopped thinking about it. 6 profession revealed, 2 more to go. But yet, so many features to be revealed. The redesigned Sylvari, PvP, the remaining race weeks, and now apparently also the, what I call ‘foe’ weeks. But let’s focus on that later. Now, I’d like to focus on something that’s about all of this. Something that brings all of this together in some ways.

I’m talking about the PAX East demo. Continue reading

What About Tomorrow – A Release Date Speculation (Part 1)

Embark Beach, 7-heroes-party, it’s time to see the signs. ArenaNet is, sadly enough, getting ready to set aside Guild Wars en begin a new story. The story of Guild Wars 2. Which means Guild Wars 2 is coming, and maybe sooner than we might expect. https://gw2bydc.wordpress.com/wp-includes/js/tinymce/plugins/wordpress/img/trans.gif Continue reading
