Man one thing I love about the Guild Wars series is that Humans are actually interesting. Like in most high fantasy settings with magical races, humans are just kinda there as a footnote. They’re kinda just there because it’s expected. When you look at their lore and culture in the wider world fantasy humans are kinda just… nothingburger. The Guild Wars series is legitimately the only series I know of where Humans have an actual presence with interesting lore. Guild Wars Humans they could never make me hate you.

Skuncht about it.

I'd like to think everyone else participating in dragon bash breaks the piñatas normally and it's just the commander who comes in and absolutely obliterates them every time

[grasping-earth]

A little perspective from someone who's been here, on and off, since 2005:

When GW2 was announced, there were a significant number of people who said no way, I'm not playing it, I don't want an open world MMORPG that looks like all the other ones, that's why I play Guild Wars!

And in the fullness of time, a lot of those people changed their mind because once it was actually here GW2 looked pretty fun, and at some point it went on sale, and they thought ah what the hell I'll give it a go.

(GW3 is probably not coming out until 2028. There is so much time. You don't have to decide anything now)

But plenty of people didn't change their mind! Plenty of them kept playing Guild Wars for years, because that's the game they liked and they had a community there. Even without ongoing updates they stayed - and they could, because even without ongoing updates ArenaNet maintained the game that existed.

(The game isn't going away, even when GW3 is here. 'Depopulated' doesn't mean ghost town, if there's one server worth of players in the world you'll be fine)

And now we have the evidence of Guild Wars Reforged in front of us. The players never abandoned it, and the devs never forgot it, and now it's getting a revival because both players and devs still had love in their hearts for it. 20 years later!

Guild Wars 2 is not so frail as some of you fear. ArenaNet have made clear their intention to keep it around, and we have no reason to doubt that looking at GW1.

And if the future of GW2 has to be sustainable play of content that exists rather than constantly selling you new things... that's probably good, actually.

There we go, I polished it a little bit more! His reaper shroud isn't all that crazy but sometimes you've got to keep it simple and classy🙂‍↕️

Today at 11am Pacific Time (UTC-7), Colin Johanson and Josh Davis will be livestreaming on the Guild Wars 2 Twitch channel!

[ghostlycoyote0]

Do your Commanders show up to Dragon Bash? I have to imagine it would be a big deal, but then, all the holograms have to be a lot less fun if you fought those things personally

[gw2-khalni]

When gw3 comes out, will you recreate your ocs in there?

Yes, even if I need to change some races/classes here and there

Yes, but only if their race is in gw3 (even if they need to change class/theme)

Yes, but only if their class is in gw3 (even if they need to change race)

Yes, but only the ones that can fit the new (old) lore without any major change

No, but I'll create ocs similar to them (ancestors or similar characters)

No, I think I'm going to start fresh and leave my OCs in their world

Other (comment plz, I'm curious!)

Voting ended on17h

Please answer even if you don't have a specific idea in mind/you prefer to wait until more info is public. I'm planning to make a second poll closer to the beta/release of gw3.

Also, comment if you have a crazy time travel story in mind for your ocs :)

[vigilbutts]

well

[vigilbutts]

ok this is good stuff to see though, no sub fee and gw2 expacs resume after gw3's launch

Nyra, Cass and Nika are all bi! Nyra has no preference, Cass is polyamorous and has a heavy male lean while Nika has a female lean!

El and Liv are both gay men, and they're together! Not only that, but Liv is also a bear :)

Renira and Eirene are lesbians! Ren is specifically femme, a femme4femme on top of that, while Eirene is just. into women. no preferences about it

Mirka is sapphic! She's on a technicality bisexual, but it's like. 90% women and 10% men for her so she lives pretty much lesbianly, so I just prefer to say she's sapphic about it. Mostly women and one (1) odd guy for her.

[mystery-salad]

A feast of queer characters, delightful! And how lovely and varied they all are 💖

Always love good bear rep, and bisexuals that lean one way or the other but are still 100% bi~

Humbled Truth, spectacled bear Kodan, lore-keeper for their village and liaison to visitors from other villages. and outsiders

Another npc who survived his plotline so he can graduate to full character. Young troubled idiot who joined the Inquest believing he was opposing the Ward's tyranny. He was one out of three members of his team who survived being fed into an impossible boss fight bc the Inquest sucks and everyone's disposable. Nowadays he's just a merc for hire
