Silverpoopoo.1476 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) If the game wants to attract new players it will be really hard to tell them that they need to play through 10 years' worth of story before they can understand the new expansion storyline. This is a big problem in FF14. The main story quest is so long that experienced players will literally tell players stuff like, "the game gets good after 100 hours of story. Just slog through it and then it'll be fun." Needless to say, this is a bad new player experience. GW2 should learn from FF14 and avoid this problem. The next expansion should have a totally unrelated story that people can start with no prior knowledge and have a complete experience.

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Umm...wasn't the announcement prior to End of Dragons that End of Dragons was wrapping up the 10-year Guild Wars 2 story?? Would that not suggest a new story would be coming in the next expansion, if not before?

The next maybe "season 6" of living world should lay the foundations for the next expansion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it means the next expansion won't be about Elder Dragons, but we're almost certainly going to see the usual cast return and a continuation of their stories, as well as that of our character, so you couldn't quite call that a completely standalone story. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Seems like it would be difficult to create a story that didn't involve our characters. Unless one expected the game to delete all previous characters, PC and NPC. Not sure how well that would go over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
