New expansion Guildwars: New dawn it should feature native american indians, they have a nice lore and could fit in well and have guilds/factions fighting over the new found lands.

WRONG next chapter is the roaring fifties.... quick... EVERYBODY DO THE CHARLESTON! woh wacka do wacka do wacka do.... but seriously..... a south american kinda vibe would be cool.... or maybe a viking thing, but i'm not sure how you would do that... since i can't think of a way to make a melee viking class diffrent from warrior. I'm thinking they are going to go in a new direction and make something like the original campaign and incorporate a whole bunch of stuff and come up with something that on it's own doesn't really remind players of one area of the world... but instead of kind of a melting pot of all diffrent areas. OR they will look for what part of the world the game is selling least in and do something from there....

You're thinking of real life nationalities... The fantasy nationalities are endless, and who knows they may base a chapter off of...

The one thing Anet did good with the Kurzick Luxon thing in Factions is making them hate eachother... For no reason..
rong626
last time b4 factions came out we hated koreans rite

arent the luxons pretty close to some native american tribes? i mean anet said they gave them that kind of look.
Maybe in future GW or patches we could make a Tyrian character but they use canthan skins, and vice versa, so a european skinned char can start in Tyria or whatever.

Really though, a colder climate would be a nice change of pace though..

I say a more hispanic and mexican type chapter would be better than "native american". There really arn't a whole lot of natives around anymore, so it isn't a big fanbase, and there are plenty of other nationalities out there. Natives of south and north america could be mixed into one group as a culture in GW, but I would say given one or the other, South American Natives have stronger influence.
I would like to point out, that Prophecies had a mix of several cultures, not one in particular. Half of the continent had African Influence, and the beginning area had Caucasians, and wile Orr and Eloians where in obscurity, they were somewhat Middle Eastern looking, maybe Asian.
We definetly have an oriental chapter, and we are getting a north african/middle eastern kind of chapter, but we certainly don't have a Caucasian or South American type chapter, and those are some strong ethnicities.
I wouldn't be super concerned about ethnicities though, after all the human ethinicties are explored, perhaps we can finally get some other races, and perhaps they can make another chapter like Prophecies with some significant diversity.

Viking Themed Chapter, where are you?
Mr Fizzle
Personally I just hope they don't try to add 2 new classes every chapter or were just goin end up having copies.What I would like personally as a chapter would maybe be a frozen type chapter because I real liked some of the graphics of the Shiverpeaks yet make this chapter full of Icy Mountains and icy wastelands.I think it would make the PvE intresting and PvP maps with mountains would make GvG intresting as well with terrain and positioning.
awesome sauce
There has already been a western european/north american inspired game an asian inspired game, and an african inspired game... and thus far we have come up with a native american inspired game, a mexican inspired game, and an arctic inspired game.
Some Other ideas:
Tropical/carribean inspired game.
Eastern European inspired game
Australian inspired game
Or an idea i posted earlier.... underground/indoors game.

I would personally like a Greek or Roman themed chapter.
But on another note, if I remember correctly, Tyria is not completely surrounded by water, which means that there is more to discover to the north, so I'm thinking an expansion to the north. And I believe thats where the charr live, right. So I'm betting we get to finish the fight with them in chapter 5.
Edit: To awsome sauce, would there be a point in having an Australian inspired game? I'm not really an expert on Australia, but I'm pretty sure its very desert-ish, much like africa. Will all the NPCs say G'day Mate? Thats like asking for a canadian inspired game, so all the NPCs can say aboot, or eh, or speak in french.

On that thought, maybe elona is more of the crystal desert to the east?

Id like to see a Roman type area, You know, Atlantis/ hercules type. OR more of ascalon (Charr continent)
BTW i like the native idea, id like to fight in Forest/Lake areas. Arent Luxons somewhat like native people?

I think we already have an Atlantis in GW..... it already sunk, and they called it Orr.....
Anyways, I don't really think the first chapter counts toward anything, it has a little bit of several types, from caucasian, african, ghosts and dwarfs, prophecies has a great diversity.
I would figure Ascolon to be a more Greek and Roman type setting than any other, that doesn't really tie closely to celtic and russian roots (I'm no expert on russians). And Nightfall has a very Middle Eastern feel to it, more so than african, and paragon has a very Roman feel to it.
If they do more caucasian themes, I would perfer it to be more northern european. And island like cultures should be put together in a chapter where you visit islands with several different and unique cultures, like Britan, Carribean, Japan, and even Australia. It would be nice to get a theme around sea travel, and have a diversity of cultures like Prophecies instead of another specific culture like Factions and apparently Nightfall.

Next Chapter should be a Ghost World, with a randomness thyme. Ghost and Vampires as the foes. Choas damage and blood spike would replace all the physical damage we are bored of countering in PvE environments. Area maps layout and enemy placement would change with every new load.

Edit: Upon seeing a chinese video on Youtube, I'd also like to state it has some Bulgarian/Slavic influence as well.

But anyway, I really don't think Anet is going to spend the time to randomize every level. Sure it was fine for Diablo, but all the graphics in a particular map looked the same anyway, so all they had to do was change the entrance and exit, and move a few trees. I can only assume it would be much harder in Guild Wars.

I'm thinking something tropical for sure.
Ritualists (even though from Cantha) remind me of Native Americans, communing with spirits and wearing beads and stuff.
