Hoover.6394 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 I was hoping there's some hint for what or where things gonna happen after today's story, watched some live stream seems like theres nothing...Did the hint of Path of Fire happend right after the Season 3 finale?I do find the location interesting, it's south of the Orr, is that a hint that we might go even more south later?Did you guys found any possible hints in this chapter?

Blocki.4931 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 We might have to deal with Elonian politics now for an episode, making sure the land is stabilizied. I could also imagine revisiting core maps since they have mentioned that we might not get a new map every episode. Ideal to have some clean up work, like maybe showing a bit more of a regenerated Orr or a cleansed Brand.Besides that we really can't know anything.Personally I hope we get frequent updates for whats next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randulf.7614 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 I'm pretty certain there is no hint or set up. Their aim - for better or worse - was to focus entirely on finishing off the story arc without distraction. Was it the right call? Probably to be honest even if I would have preferred something to set us up, even if it was in the epilogue (eg if the DSD was next, cue a camera pan to a big storm on the horizon).The ED's are probably going to take a brief backstep for a bit in terms of their involvement. I imagine a certain focus on this new "humanising" aspect that sadly has been thrust into the equation, but otherwise they may just go and develop a new credible side villain until the Dragons present themselves once more. After all, 2 are asleep, one is out of the picture and we have no replacement for any of them.With the Elder Dragons becoming less of a problem, I suspect another faction might make take advantage of this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyroar.2974 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 No hint for the future was unexpected, but it also made the ending feel complete. And, in a way, it feels like a proper ending to the entire GW2. They could very well announce GW3 tomorrow if they wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember that the last episode of Living World 3 showed us some clues of players visiting Crystal Desert, which ended up being Path of Fire.

lezbefriends.7516 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Kralkatorrik, being the most powerful villain, justifies a “complete” ending like the one we got. Any bigger baddies that pop up are gonna feel like they got retconned in, i.e., weren’t part of the original lore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zealex.9410 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 There might be subtle hints for less grandios arcs in se5. I think a slower pace and less world ending threats and events need room to breathe.Going from one major world ending event to the next is kinda ehhhh.

Fenom.9457 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 I can see the first episode being about is helping out with the elonian politics. However, since we the character represent the world and are all over the place, we shouldn’t actually help with voting or anything. But, a big part of restoring the order and societal functions of Elona could be reclaiming lost cities and territories. For that reason, I expect the next episode to either add a new map in Vabbi, or expand the domain of vabbi map (since anet said they may expand existing maps some episodes instead of adding new ones every time). Give us the brand around there, with the story of the episode being more casual and slow. For once since we started our hero’s journey, one threat isn’t instantly replaced by another. Season 5 will/should (IMO) be about cleanup, smaller problems, and tying up story threads.If we get 6 episodes this season, I’d like to see/expect:Episode 1: expansion of the domain of vabbi, as I saidEpisode 2: checking in with Caithe at the grove, leading to a new map in the Heart of Maguuma - there’s a few possibilities, but I’d bet on them doing the gap that’s surrounded by TD, rata sum, and dry top. The story would mainly focus on finally addressing malyck.Episode 3: something in orr, I’d prefer a new map but I could get behind expanding another one (btw, if they start expanding maps are we going to have core maps get doubled in size or even bigger? If they put the same amount of work into it then as they do now, cover as much land...). This is the calm down and checkup season, lets see how Orr is. We killed zhaitain like 7 years ago and there are still risen all over Orr.Episode 4: mapping the space between rata sum and the grove. The Asura episode, update us on the inquest and what their leader is doing? And introduce new plot threads (anet ought to do that a little for each race so that season 5 doesn’t tie up loose threads and leave them with nothing).Episode 5: the norn episode, expanding on how they feel about jormag’s tooth breaking and then basically doing nothing (braham led a small expedition that didn’t even hurt him, that’s it?) expansion of existing map (or new one) into more of the deldrimor front. Why haven’t the norm expanded down there, just because of dredge? Maybe they can work together to keep the shiverpeaks as a whole safer.Episode 6: the only episode that will really deal with the “main” plot, leading us into expansion 3. It will vary based on what that expansion is, but my two most likely guesses are: it expands an Ascalon map into the mountains and almost into blood legion homelands before we get that land in the xpac. So the Charr episode, with the blood legion becoming a problem, an enemy. This could also be expansion 4 and a different LW season, if we go with Most Likely Option 2: the deep sea dragon. A map on the coast somewhere (Orrian coast, tarnished coast, elonian, wherever). Investigating reports of strange and horrifying creatures attacking boats and emerging on shore. We learn it’s the DSD’s minions and expansion 3 is the unending ocean against it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Setzer.2519 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Now that there is peace it's the perfect time for Guilds to stake the claim for power and go to War....some sort of Guild Wars perhaps. Lets just say there are a lot of...Factions that perhaps don't agree with how this new prosperity should progress. Maybe the Order of Whispers don't like the Order of Shadows. Maybe the Vigil has no more Dragons to watch, becomes restless and splits into mercenary groups, maybe the Consortium is funding one group and the Black Lion Trading Company is funding another. Maybe the Norn spirit wolf and bear team up to fight the raven and snow leopard. All sorts of chaos could ensue creating new castles, forts, hideouts and a web of politics.It's time to drop the childish 1 man saviour power fantasy story lines and bring on the armies of war to which the Commander must negotiate, investigate, incriminate and eviscerate.

Kralk is talking to Aurene the whole time and starts talking to her about another female dragon. He mentions how she was the first of them and had been betraying her own kind. Bubbles is the only Elder Dragon left that hasn't been established as male. Or at least identifying/being voiced as male. Anet is super weird about that. Then, one of his final lines is "mother."

flog.3485 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Hmm there is also the fact at some point during the story, Rox was willing to talk about something important, and then, later on at the end, she was not part of the crew that flew back to LA.

Not sure how to mark a post as a spoiler but there is no mention of that other character. What the one says is almost certainly referring to somebody or something we have no knowledge on, who has probably died long ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how it worked with Glint, but Aurene has to become a mom for that.Edit: Elonan stability and maybe a cure for Taimi are most likely on the menu. Who knows?
