Talk:Gods of Tyria

Ok, I made this Old God and not GodS because that is our standard. We make articles for the singular unless the term only comes as plural (i.e. Unseen Ones or Dark Remains). I am not opposed to moving this to Old Gods (since 95% of the usages will be plural) I just want to make sure everyone is on the same boat here. So, we don't have people changing references and article names every now and then. --Karlos 18:06, 20 October 2005 (EST)
 * Definitely Old GodS. Old God just sounds wrong. 148.177.129.213 22:35, 20 October 2005 (EST)
 * I vote for plural too. --Tetris L 23:15, 20 October 2005 (EST)
 * Done. I have no idea what I was thinking. :) Anyways, moved main entry to Gods of Tyria, kept Old Gods as a redirect to it since the name is frequently used in the game) and deleted Old God --Karlos 23:58, 20 October 2005 (EST)

"created the world of Tyria"?
I thought Tyria is just a continent... -PanSola 05:34, 20 November 2005 (UTC)


 * The game manual does (pg 26) in the opening paragraph about the history of Tyria. Refers toit as "world" in the end of the paragraph.
 * I have always looked at like how people used to say "Old World" and "New World." It could also be that ANet changed their definition of Tyria and (as is seen in a number of other cases) forgot to update their game literature. But I think it's fair to alternate between the "geographic term" continent and the layman term world. --Karlos 07:24, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

OLD gods?
I believe the term "Old" Gods is only applicable in the Krytan regions (including Maguuma), where the Unseen Ones have usurped their place. Ascalons probably just consider them as Gods. I mean, sure the gods have physically left Tyria, but their influence didn't leave. The term Old Gods would only work if there are new gods, or if they cease to believe in gods (which is definitely not the case in Ascalon). -PanSola 14:32, 13 January 2006 (UTC)


 * It's more because they are geezers, not because they have been replaced by new gods. :) Check your game manual. On the index and on page 46. --Karlos 05:10, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Dhuum and Menzies
Should Dhuum and Menzies be included?


 * No. -PanSola 20:23, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

Dhuum is mentioned accordingly and Menzies is not a god, though he does have power on par with them. Abbadon and Dhuum, they they once were, are not longer gods of Tyria.--68.192.188.142 20:19, 29 November 2006 (CST)

Aftermath of the Nightfall campaign
As Abbadon was NOT a demi-god and has now been replaced by Kormir, it will be interesting to see how this is handled with the temples -- 20:50, 16 November 2006 (CST)


 * I personally don't want it to be changed at all. I can't particularily think of a way to hide her away but it would decrease the confusion in the next campeigns.  Abbadon was securely hidden away from the world (besides Abbadon's Mouth and the Apocrypha) and reintroducing a new God to the world would be dificult for the Gods...
