I'm hooked.

This game is beyond beautiful and I wish I would have played this from the beginning.

Anyways, hi all.

I wish the entirety of human race would have played it from the beginning.Yesterday I was stumbling around in the desolation and at one point when I stood still for a second I gazed upon a landscape and sky so beautiful I thought it's actually amazing some people dont recognize it. This game has some incredible art and design in it. I agree that on certain spots it's sometimes a bit too much, but overall it's truly awesome.

Oh, and hi.

Hi! Welcome to GW2!

Pst, fashion wars is the real endgame.

There is a wiki! And you can access the pages by typing in \wiki [name of page] https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Main_Page

There are helpful players! If you need help, ask in map chat. There's normally at least two people around - at ANY time - who can lend a hand/paw/twig(?)

The core Tyria maps are a large reason for why I started to play and still continue to play. They are beautiful and fun to play in. I hope Cantha will be more like them in many ways.

Welcome and I envy you for having all of it still ahead.

Welcome, take your time this game is not a race to the end game. Enjoy the different regions and stories and most importantly the game actually has a really nice community :)

Welcome! Have fun exploring tyria. ?

welcome.one tip, don't care about endgame unless you are really ready for it, it might actually ruin your time.trust me on this, after 8 years the boredom is getting to me....

When I started playing, it was my first-ever 3D MMO. (Had just got over getting motion sickness from 3D games) I ran my little pre-mount character around the maps, staring in awe at all the amazing scenery. Couldn't believe how varied and beautiful it was, and that they even made an effort to make underwater look fabulous.

Welcome to Tyria, kindred spirit!

I really wish they made the vanilla maps viable again. Those were the best world building this game had. Every map is amazing.

What do you mean by "viable"?

Hey, hey! Welcome to Tyria. :)

I love the Character Creation, the Professions, the Specializations... I really wish they incorporated my ideas and make them even better than I had in mind. ?

My PC is not great so I play with low settings which dulls the graphics. Recently, my video driver updated and somehow changed graphic settings. When I played GW2 again I couldn't believe how intricately detailed and gorgeous the characters and landscapes were. But it made my game run poorly so I went back to recommended graphic settings.

Anyway, welcome and enjoy!

I suggest using gw2hook if playing on a potato, can make the game look a lot nicer with a performance boost. Every extra fps counts for us vintage machine enthusiasts xD

Hey, welcome to Tyria!

I have been hooked to this game for years. The magic is real.

Welcome to Tyria! As a newcomer myself, I wish I had started this journey years ago. I'm loving every minute I play, the world so far is great to look at and explore. Take your time and enjoy every scene and vista you can. :)

Welcome! And enjoy the wonderful journey in Tyria!
