Will Season 5 be free of an Elder Dragons themed main story?

Bah, that's way too expensive to upgrade all the slots I wanted to upgrade. I have 13 characters and several with legendary gear or a WvW build where such an upgrade would make sense. I guess I will stick to the old ways and only upgrade the most useful ones.

Too cutesy-wootsy for my taste.

A celestial exhibitionist isn't my idea of good looking, either. :s Marvel superheroes confirmed. :-1:

My OP wasn't that long, you could have read it before posting. ;) Yes, but I still hope this gets hotfixed tonight as I don't feel like farming tokens atm.

Hope this gets fixed soon...

UPDATE: Has been fixed with the latest patch.The Vendor for the Queen's Gauntlet Entrance Tickets does not recognize the Festival Tokens that are stored in the Wallet. I have over 1,000 and can't make use of them. Please fix ASAP!

24 and 28 ones should be account bound just like their 32-slot versions.

I have been one of the most vocal critics of GW2's inconsistent design choices and the elements (like too much magi-tech or Inquest sci-fi outfits and weapons) that IMO don't fit into the setting. I was talking about GW1, which has shaped the brand for me and for many other oldtimers who have played Guild Wars since 2005.

Yikes, what a horrible image you painted there. My favored option for a GW3 would be to see it placed in the age when the Gods came to Tyria. There is enough annoying high-tech nonsense out there. If I want sci-fi content, I go elsewhere - I will never associate it with the Guild Wars brand.

Perhaps it is not the challenge that poses the problem but your refusal to improve your gameplay technique (gear, tactics etc)?

I liked the GW1 death penalty, but then again I like GW1's system better altogether.

No, it isn't a bug, it is what it is. The free gear provided with a Level 80 boost is unsalvagable and you can't remove upgrades from it by any means.

Last time I WP in WvW, it didn’t repair armor It only gets auto-repaired at the spawn. Any additional keep waypoints have an anvil of repair, you have to do it manually there.

You mean the initial sense of "What happened, this isn't Guild Wars!?! What did they do to their franchise!" ? It took me over three years to get over it and give the game a second chance as a whole new product. I really don't want that initial feeling of complete disappointment back. ;)

We've already got unique skins (back pieces, armor sets) that are exclusive to advanced birthdays. I'd say those reflect the opposite of "crappy" and "RNG". :) That is a lovely idea. <3 This (https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Charged_Quartz_Orichalcum_Amulet_of_the_Sky) has not been implemented yet. I'd love to see the Sky Aura, I can imagine it looks similarly to the Liquid Aurillium Infusion, with sparkling bluish stars instead.

I think it does. Artwork is always a little more abstract, especially GW2's.

That's no prediction but an already known fact, and has been for half a year, if not longer. My bet is still on the Sea Dragon. I was hoping for a non-dragon storyline, but alas... That would be such a boring foundation for Season 5. Doubt it. We are going to cross the ocean to Cantha and will stumble across Bubbles (or Bubbles will be the reason for us to go to Cantha in the first place, because its shoreline is being threatened by the dragon).

Ouch. That's obviously a placeholder for the made up character selection screen. If they have only two characters, they had to copy & paste.

Exactly. No one said all of GW2 had to be about Elder Dragons beginning to end. Tyria holds so much potential for any fantasy story possible, so whatever comes next, I doubt it will be GW3. I sure hope there won't be a GW3 for another decade at least, because it would suck to finally get a good storyline and pace and all the new updates (build templates, legendary upgrades, UI update etc) added only at the final stage of the game - that's like upgrading a car with all the goodies you've always wanted it to have only to sell it shortly after.

That seems to be a general bug these days, like dialogue is no longer programmed to be fixed on the character but on the location the character was standing when their dialogue triggered. . Warclaw Bug: Skill no. 1 (mauling) often doesn't trigger - you stay mounted instead and nothing happens.

I sure hope so! The current character selection screen is plain awful, even if the theme idea is nice. The lighting and its colors makes armor and characters alike look unauthentic (most faces look like criminals). The covering of the feet is bad as well. ...unless you meant the launcher window, in which case I don't care what it looks like as long as they repair it to remember where you positioned it.

I find the newsletter's image even better: So much for "no elder dragons", I guess. ;) Or this could be a general reference to crossing the ocean to Cantha - who knows? I can see creepy Dragon eyes :O Me too! :o In this GIF image you can see the Dragon: https://imgur.com/KpqlEzU And to whoever thinks this was snow: have your eyes checked. :p

Definitely is! :)
