Evga.2471 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I voted yes it’s time for Cantha. The reason I voted for it is that I never played GW1. I would like to see what the hype is all about for Cantha.Yes I know it will be different version of Cantha compared to GW1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Sol.1457 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I've no attachment to Cantha and am curious about it. However that would be two human centered expansions and you have the Norn and the Charr that NEED an expansion centered on their civilizations. Don't relegate two of the major races to 'footnotes'.

Skynet.7201 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Yes. Definitely yes. Loved that whole vibe in GW1. <3 I love PoF and I'm hopeful that GW2 has plans to make Cantha happen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raventree.8302 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Yes! I know some folks don't like the idea of following a GW 1 trajectory, but I actually think that idea is cool in a nostalgic kinda way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also claims that a dev mentioned, if Cantha is something the majority of fans want to see and there is a big demand for it, they would consider bringing Cantha to GW 2. We just need to make it clear that it's something most of us want.So the question and purpose of this poll is simple. How many of us would like to explore Cantha in the next new expansion!?Before Cantha i think we hace to fight abyssal drake :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanakin.9162 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Doesn't need to be next expansion if it takes more time to get it right, but yes please. Could we in the meantime please get some Canthan faces (makeover or creation options), weapons, and outfits for Canthan refugees in Tyria? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProtoGunner.4953 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Of course. I loved Cantha and my dream would be a new race - the Tengu introduced with Cantha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadLass.3821 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I want to see cantha as well, but what mystery I want solved is the unending ocean where S whatever the dragons name is lives. Plus it would be an all water map, making water legendaries useful and underwater mounts useful (and the skimmer too). I also agree with Zacchary.6183, we should get Tengu as a playable race. We have seen another profession, another race wouldn't be difficult as they already have the models and all they have to do is add in the race specific skills and story line, it would be great if the expansion that had this opened the Tengu home world (or at least a Tengu place). If the Tengu we're added for the next expansion, I would pay pre-release right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And because of death of mordremoth and zaithan S has all reasons to come. Second point kralka is coming close too ocean. It can be a provocation for S. So many reason that coyld lock ours progression until Cantha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raveparade.7582 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Since we have a desert area now in GW2 I rather have them open up the Far Northern Shiverpeaks or the Charr Homelands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonstarmac.4603 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 I think 'Bubbles' will end up moving towards Cantha after we've dealt with Kralkatorrik and Joko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowHawk.3615 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 yes, but I feel like the far shiverpeaks will be our next base of operations after Elona. Basically go into the Norn homeland since Jormag is a thing not to be forgotten about and Cantha has flooded due to the Jade sea returning into water. Also there is still an unnamed ocean dragon that's taken home near Cantha. Cantha will probably be last on the list of expansions- but yes I'd love to go back.

Linthenius.3704 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Would be cool, but I feel the other races should get a spotlight for the next expansion. Heck, I would LOVE a norn focused expansion, Char would be nice as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoT was focused on the Sylvari and their dragon daddy...and PoF was the Mount race...lol, get it "mount" race....Anyways 250-300 years is enough time for a lot of changes to have happened, or perhaps it is still full of xenophobic hyoomuns.I would mind visiting any new area either, but I feel that the claim that an expansion focused on humans could really only be applied PoF.Sylvari are new, Asurans only surfaced 250-350, as far as what I saw in EotN. The norn just seemed kinda tossed in, and hard to believe that they never had to fight any of the midgets...errr...dwarves.For all we know the next expansion will take place on islands and you travel by a mini boat, like in windwaker or one piece lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noa.7490 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Cantha again? Seriously. I was pretty much convinced that every player knew that NC Soft (aka the Korean Overlords) have clearly said that there will be no Cantha. I wish people would remember that so this subject keeps from resurfacing every now and then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdfaye.4368 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I would rather explore new areas and have the story center on nonhuman races, especially the norn. The Shiverpeaks are my favorite area by far, and I would rather not keep revisiting GW1 content. I would also be happy with a focus on chart or asura.

Arlette.9684 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I’m not a GW player, so I only have very limited knowledge on the subject.But from what I’ve read and saw in WP videos on the subject. Cantha is a very divisive region. It has racial intolerance, and a bunch of other things that just don’t seem to fit with companies newly adopted model of PCness.And if it ain’t PC, it’s unlikely to find its place in modern day games, due to possible backlash./my2cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walhalla.5473 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Hmm. Why not a totally new place with interesting lore for an expansion instead of staying in the shadows of GW1? Tyria is a huge world and there would be enough for Anet to create beautiful and interesting places in the world.Also wasn't Cantha the continent that was one big ugly ghetto with some jade sea and stone forests?

Super Hayes.6890 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 This is a no brainer. It was a major part of GW1. It MUST be addressed in GW2. I hope it is in the plans even if we just get lore explaining its destruction. I just hate the void that is in place now. Worst case: if there is an issue with offending a part of the player base causing it to not be possible to add Cantha then an announcement saying "We will not do it" can at least stop all the speculation. Too many years with no Cantha closure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
