I officially declare the trailer epic
You can quote me on that, I withhold judgment on the game itself though. Discuss.--Łô√ë îğá†ħŕášħ 06:03, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Well, it was certainly kick-ass enough to drag me back onto the Wiki. Oh man, that looks cool. It's still noticeably Guild Wars, but so much more epic.[[Image:Entrea Sumatae.png|Entrea Sumatae]] Entrea   [Talk]  03:03, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

End of trailer


Whats up with that part on the end of the trailer. A Charr or maybe a Norn bear (Like the Savage Nornbear) that becomes a Destroyer like creature... hmm... --   † F1 ©  Talk  10:47, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Some sorta Charr-Destroyer hybrid, maybe? [[Image:RHSig.jpg]] rede | beiträge 13:49, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I think that one of the Charr Shamans finally got some recognition of there new god Primordus -- F1Sig.png  † F1 ©  Talk  14:04, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Charr Effigy, at least thats what I thought Lยкץ๒๏ץ talk  09:27, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

The Stone dwarfs really are back

 * Dwarves* and no supprises Random Time  18:18, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

It's a Norn Polar Bear now

 * Yeah, that seemed odd for me too, more than one bear form with different buffs perhaps 18:18, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

There are nights and huge lands

 * I loved the night sweep, I wouldn't be surprised if there was a Day/Night cycle (similar to EQ2), or it could just be Night Zones. Incidentally, the night and the moon looked beautiful Random Time  18:18, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Sylvari seems to be Woman only

 * Meh, female characters look better (female Asura looked weird though) Random Time  18:18, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * RT describing the difference between Sexism and Sexy :P --- [[Image:VipermagiSig.JPG]] -- (contribs) &emsp;(talk)  18:38, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

A huge ass city! In Kryta maybe?

 * I'm guessing Lion's arch for this one, it's asupposidly the "free city of Lion's Arch" now, and fits the description Random Time  18:15, 21 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Similar pic, showing the nearby village, too. Anyhow, if it's human, it's not LA. Humans have nothing of the Shiverpeaks and Ascalon (Norn and Charr respectively) anymore, and LA was destroyed when Zhaitan rose along with a whole damn city :P It's probably Divinity's Reach.

And last but not least: A huge flying thing at the Norn City


Hmm thats a lot of stuff and a lot of Questions... --   † F1 ©  Talk  14:43, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

The fierce and awsome Charr


Ah the Fierce Charr. They will be So freaking co.. Hot.. and do you people recognise that sword?

From RT's blog
Incase you missed it, GW2 now has a trailer. It's about 5 mins long, and I'm going to give some opinions. It was mostly concept art, but there were a few awesome things:

Things that looked awesome

 * The day/night sweep, I may speculate that GW2 will have day/night, but I can't be certain that this is the case, anyway - night looks much better than night in EQ2, and in Oblivion, the moon effect was beautiful (<3).
 * Some of the Asuran tech looked immense
 * Water effects and underwater environments are top class
 * Running animations (for what seemed to be charr)
 * Environments in general are top class
 * The music, a redux of the GW:EN overture was probably the best thing about the trailer.

Observations

 * Looks like there won't be a good/evil race split (something to rolplay only, perhaps). Mentions races allying
 * Some of the gameplay footage looked like GW1 footage, nothing too new
 * Keep in mind the final trailer for GW1, which used artistic license up the wazoo.

F1's blogy (sort of in the make thingy)
I don't there will be a good/evil split but the Charr still rule over most parts of Ascalon so they won't be that close to them. And ofcourse the Charr them self aren't a really friendly and warm people. So it will be a fun group of "people" :D

Also I think that they keep in mind that most people will chose a different race instead of the humans. As they are killed in the wars. So there will be a lot less humans.

I sure hope that you just can walk because the Charr run is great. But I get crazy if I walk like that forever --  <font face="Comic Sans MS" color="darkred"> † F1 ©  Talk  20:58, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

I don't get it
What exactly is so great about this trailer? I hear everyone else fawning over how ut;s cikk omg omg omg <3~ but I'm not really impressed. Of course the graphics are nice: GW has one of the nicer graphics engines right now, and the one thing they never disappoint on is the art department. I would naturally expect GW2 to be better, and if this is what the gameplay will eventually look like, then yeah it's a bit better. Good job. But...so what? :\ (T/C) 06:47, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
 * /agree with that, prehaps it's because we're in a desert as far as GW2 news is concerned, and any news is water, which the community flocks around because there's so little. That said, the underwater locations were spectacular. <font color="Orange">Random <font color="Black">Time  08:51, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Was the narrator? Cuz I would totally tap that based on voice alone. <3 09:57, 22 August 2009 (UTC)
