Following the latest Canthan expansion trailer, how are you feeling?

[Donutdude.9582]

I want to pre-order. I want the merch. I want EVERYTHING! I am so bloody hyped.

[xoxin.8326]

For the more hardcore I'm sure this is enough to hype them up. But I play this game pretty casually and there wasn't really anything of substance shown so for now...it looks neat, I guess. Will keep an eye on it.

Thje title concerns me that it's enough Anet rushing through to get to a pay off they've allegedly been building to all these years, despite the fact that so little fits together very well or at least has been fleshed out. Hopefully I am wrong, but the recent form in story esp through the disaster that was LS4 (to me) says otherwise

I think the biggest thing to remember is that although I am very happy to be returning to Cantha and I want to see Cantha and Kaineng City in the GW2 style, realistically it isn't going to look or feel like Factions. I enjoyed PoF very much, but it never felt like Nightfall or GW1 Elona. Anet don't strike me as being particularly devoted to respecting GW1 unless it suits their direct purposes, so for all intents and purposes, I'm expecting a completely new and different landscape which will ultimately be more akin to a new continent. That is something I have mixed feelings about.

[GW Noob.6038]

I don't give a hoot about Cantha...I just hope they're able to produce the same level of quality that they delivered with the HoT expansion.

End of Dragons? I do not think I should feel excited when the naming seems like is done by computer putting the word dragon in a randomly generated sentence.

[Pockethole.5031]

I'm not as hyped as I voted but I'm certainly buying it no matter what because for the foreseeable future GW2 will be pretty much the only thing I care enough about to play it. I will always play GW2 as long as it's maintained like it is now. If it gets bunch of bugs and problems and nothing is done about that then I might lose interest but until then I'm definitely playing and buying every expansion.But of course, I hope there truly will be new things to look forward to!

I'm also concerned about the title. I like dragons. There doesn't need to be an end...

[jsp.6912]

gw2 got me, even if the game is shit they just have to do a random video for an expansion and i'm overhyped

[aspirine.6852]

Its Cantha, so no problem there. But I do see a lot of water.. And that kinda makes me nervous...

[Ayrilana.1396]

More of a meh but I'll still get it.

[Cyninja.2954]

As with previous expansions, going to get the Ultimate edition pre-ordered pretty much asap.

Cautiously optimistic but definitely want more infos.

[Trinnitty.8256]

the real question is what do they do after cantha.

[Danikat.8537]

I pre-purchased the Deluxe edition of the base game and the Ultimate editions of both HoT and PoF and I'm still playing so it seems pretty likely I'll pre-purchase this expansion too but I want more information before making that decision. I don't do blind purchases for anything.

I'd prefer somewhere we've never been before to repeating another area from GW1. There's so much of Tyria we know nothing about and I want to find out what's there, but I suppose at least this way I have some idea of what to expect from the setting, and PoF introduced a lot of new stuff instead of just relying on nostalgia, so it seems reasonable to think this will be the same. (Plus after this, and maybe some LW maps filling in places from GW1 which don't make it into the initial release, like how Istan was added after PoF, they'll have to take us to new places because there will be very little left which we've already seen.)

The story teaser we got in the new trailer, and the expansion name, has me very interested. I like the story in this game and I find the concept of the Elder Dragons intriguing. I've been wondering how we can balance their destuctiveness with the damage caused by killing them since that revelation came about, and it looks like we're going to get an answer.

But I still want to know more about what I'd be buying (and what it costs) before I make a decision. It's very subjective of course and even I can't say exactly what would decide me for or against it, but I'll want a full list of features and some idea of the amount of story and general PvE content in the expansion, plus price options, then I'll decide if I'm going to get it right away, wait for a sale or maybe skip it all together.

This pretty much describes why I voted how I did. I was hoping for some more content related to the upcoming expansion for the GW2 anniversary and I'm glad to see they did release this trailer for it. However, for me there still hasn't been quite enough details to make it a definite immediate purchase yet.

[Josiah.2967]

I will buy it no mater what. I am not sure what Cantha is or why we have to end all dragons. I had the "End of Dragons" line.... Not all dragons can be bad.

[Game of Bones.8975]

How am I feeling?Well, I had shoulder surgery a few months ago, so my arm still hurts, I'm not sleeping at night because I can't find a good sleeping position, and my 20th Wedding anniversary is coming up as well as my 50th birthday so that makes me feel pretty old.

Other than that, I'm not to bad...thanks for asking.

[Cynder.2509]

I was shaking when I saw the trailer and I almost teared up. I'm beyond excited!However I'd still prefer some more information like in the first trailer for PoF during the announcement back then.Some actual gameplay footage would be neat.I didn't watch the livestream today though as I was busy with getting the new skimmer upgrade so I watched it after. However does anyone know a rough date yet when it would be coming? Some people said it would be by the end of this year while other say summer or winter 2021.

[Smoosh.2718]

I hope we get some juicy elite spec hints ... I hope my gamble was right!

[notebene.3190]

Somewhere between 'take my money' and 'excited but'. Closer to the former for sure (in a 'glass half empty/full' sense). Not blind adoration, but I don't look forward to their product 'expecting disappointment' by a long shot. :)

They said 2021 in the stream but no specific season. I would guess late 2021 since it seems we're about halfway through the Icebrood Saga, which started almost a year ago.

[Ultramex.1506]

More story about Human land.......ugh

Same here. For me, going back to Cantha is a huge selling point on its own, and if we get the rest of the bare minimum expansion features at that point, that's enough for me. Anything after that is just a bonus. Also, if End of Dragons means that Guild Wars can finally move on from this plot (and not just toying with us), then it's most of what I wanted all in one place. I still want to get a features list to start throwing money around, but it's going to be hard to betray my optimism.

[mezuzel.4987]

Hyped for a new GW2 expansion, but not hyped in particular for Cantha - I didn't play the original GW game, so it doesn't mean much to me. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[jokke.6239]

Teaser was a bit "meh" .. But it's a teaser, wasn't expecting much.We still got a trailer to look forward too.Ofc I'll get it :)

[Terra.9506]

From the expansion name it's feel like this will setup for final chapter of GW2. Happy to have opportunity to go back to Cantha but It's also about what content it offer.

[Tukaram.8256]

I did vote 'take my money'... but not really as excited as the choice sounds. I tend to pre-order the Deluxe. I love Cantha so will of course pre-order this. The trailer was not very good. Too much visual clutter to see anything really. But it is just a teaser, so hopefully a real trailer comes out later. I want to see critters, cities, and countryside.
