Yeah It's a nice introduction to GWEN and you can tell that the website will look great after it is fixed. No complaints here

Still isn't as nice as the European GW site. The Euro one is much cleaner and easier to navigate. Plus it uses a light background with dark text, instead of the eye bleeding alternative.

But the trailer is very cool.

what kind of profession IS Gwen? Hmmm... since it seems the ele is gonna be a (ugly) dwarf, by the look of her i'd say mesmer.

If she is then she isn't going to see that much play in actual PvE as it stands.

seems to work in IE7, Firefox is hosed . I have IE tab so its not so bad, but it looks very very nice.

Wheres Game updates though?

EDIT: Holy Crap, just watched the trailer. Gwen is totally badass now. I have a funny feeling shes going to be very cruel to us for picking on her and making fun of her.

But, what if she is the Great Destroyer??? Omg, SHES GOING TO KILL US ALL!!!

Oh, and the Elementalist hero is an Azura, the Dwarf is the healer.

The trailer was cool, the site will probably be nice after it's finished. Any word on whether or not there will be a cinematic?

I don't know what you mean by 'picking on her'. We really were quite patient having her annoy our a$$es off in pre. At least she healed a tiny bit, otherwise i would have told her to scram.

Still an Asuran ele seems fitting, since they are the most talented magical race.

PS: Now SF burn team will be a real badass party. Much better resistance against disease since 2 out of 4 (if you take 3 ele heroes) are non-human.

EDIT: I really can't picture "Gwen = Great Destroyer" anymore (she describes it as a danger. She really seems to have grown in every sense, and wants to make the Charr know she's definately NOT happy with what they did to the "center of her world", mark my words.

The website looks decent. Not amazing, and the navigation bar should be at the top IMO, but its good otherwise.

Whoa!.... very excited about rejoining the Ascalon forces, and little Gwen has all grown up and become a Mesmer it seems. This should be very spectacular.

I liked the new site. Except the Update Notes needs to be made accessable from the main page. Currently, unless I missed something, you have to go through the Support link.

Awesome, but... Why are the AScalon soldiers in black armor? Are they the Ascalon Vanguard (The elites)... But I prefer the old red of Ascalon, these guys look a little too evil to be good.

They are probably one of the "factions" in GW:EN, the Ebon Vanguard.



Move over Margrid and Jin, as soon as I can, I'm adding this guy to my party.



A very cool trailer.

A very cool trailer. The Ebon Vanguard is actually the rebel faction of the Charr.

That was a pretty cool trailer, I especially like the part where the arrow went through the Charr's neck o_o

At first I thought it was just Kuunivang. Then I clicked. (!)

I think it will be a monster, I'd be surprised (and very happy!) if it was a pet.

Yeah agree amazing trailer (the VO was more than a little cheesy though "now the danger runs deep.." whatever :P). The charr look awsome as usual, cant wait to pay them a visit.

Website however, not so great - I preffered the old one, was better layed out (news all on the front page, link to updates), though I'm sure they will continue to improve it (like they did the last time they redesigned it).

Done.

[JUNK]

I should be excited BUT the fact that A.net did so many things wrong lately (well not just lately) - is leaving a bitter after taste. Even if it is the best out of all GW games (and the setting looks amazing so it actually has the potential to get back some of thet c1 magic and kick Factions of the Best GW game-throne) - a part of me is always waiting for that kick in the nuts.
And keeping that in mind - it is gonna be tough liking this for much longer.
Ahh well - ignorance is bliss!
