Whether you're jumping in for the first time and playing for free or adventuring in our recently launched sixth expansion, Visions of Eternity, the best time to play Guild Wars 2 is now! Join the millions of players in Tyria and experience the friendliest MMO community firsthand.
A legendary adventure on the island of Castora awaits.
Who else but me posts GW2 updates 😎 One of the few companies I support, for over 20yrs.
I played it a little years ago. It was fun but I had children after I started playing and gave it up so my wife wouldn’t hate me. I got to 50 and then hung it up
Arenanet is doing smthn wrong with marketing, I never once seen an ad for a gw2 expansion and always hear it like this once an expac is already released. Not that I would play it cause I'm a gw1 purist haha
New elite specializations and a fresh adventure on the magical and never-before-seen island of Castora - The sixth expansion launches on October 28!
A stress test for 3 hours is not gonna show all of what there is for the sylvari. They actually have a nice personality, and are one of the only races that right from the starting personal quest have a grasp of the big picture, the fight against the Elder Dragons. They have their own problems with the Nightmare court, but they understand what's going on with the world and the Elder Dragons.
Also, there are 3 choices for the first personal quest and 3 choices for the 2nd, I don't think they could have completed the 2nd quest let alone all 3 of the starting choices in under 3 hours when the server is being beat to hell. Hell, they didn't even say what choice they made for their personal quests (or tell what it was about), just described it as based off arthurian legend which other sites have mentioned.
