Hope: Long swords and runic blades are included in the game. Actual skill balance and hopefully no filler skills that are totally useless are added. Minimal grind.
Fear: The game will become a grind fest like EQ with better graphics.

Same professions for al races, just with different names: Charr Shaman, Asura Priest, Human Monk, Norn Quack, Silvary Curer. You'll have to go to Charr lands and befriend the charr to learn their skills, but you could get tham all with the same character. |

Hope: Persistent world where it's fun to explore, where enemies are easy to avoid if wanted, and there's a nice resort off on the beach somewhere were people like to party.

Hope: That gold will be removed from the game completely & the nerf stick will break in half!
Fear: That skill choices will not have as much synergy with each other.

Darksun
Hope: The ENTIRE map will be a persistent, explorable area (except for missions, dungeon & other instanced things) giving us a full world to explore instead of about %30 of the area. Allowing us to really have area to EXPLORE, Not just easy to reach towns & such.
Fear: They will cut down on the amount of content (items & armor) because they have 5+ races and therefore make fewer armor & item choices per race.

Hope 3: That Events revolutionize MMOs.
Fear: That it won't feel like Guild Wars.

Greatest: World vs. World will hopefully actually be epic, grand warfare that actually has a meaningful effect on the game. Ie: Everything AB in GW1 was hyped to be, but actually nothing like.
Worst: They make it impossible or semi-impossible to solo and force everyone to PUG. That would be a game-killer right there IMO.

I don't really have a biggest hope/fear. I think the game will be amazing.
My only concern is that the PvP stays as amazing as it is now. While things may be unbalanced, I've never ran across a game of this genre with this fast pace actioned PvP. It's the best i've ever played, and i hope it stays the same.

Hope: Is as casual as the current GW and that there will still be a multi professions system (it's why I bought GW in the first place).
Fear: Power being balanced around items and level, instead of level and personal skill, and team work. AKA turning it into WoW.

I'm bringing this thread back from the dead.
Another Fear:
GW2 is only being made because ANet can't come up with anything original anymore. They're looking for more people to play their games, so why not have a rip-off of World of Warcraft that people can relate to, but has a one time only pay to play...

Hope: Gw2 gets canceled or gets switched to a better company.
Fear: It will turn out to be more of the same EotN bullshit.

Hope: No titles. No AI companions that kill the quality & quantity of pugs.
Fear: Stupid title grind that's suppose to be the PvE endgame.

Even then, it's usually just two guys with six heroes...
On topic, but in line with the above:
HOPE: GW2 is as fresh and exciting as Guild Wars was.
And I mean Prophecies. Renaming the game was stupid, and most of the additions that were shoved into the game afterwards have only changed or destroyed what I liked about Guild Wars in the first place.
FEAR: GW2 turns into WoW.
There is nothing wrong with WoW, but grind is not why I bought this game.
RedNova88
Hope: No subscription! Also that they keep the 8 skill limit, or at least keep it small (I don't want 80 skills on my bar and only use several of them, like many MMOs). And finally I hope that they'll add the ability to dual wield weapons other than daggers
I lied! I have one last hope, and that is that I hope the open world events that they gave examples of, are truly going to be as such. Ex. Dragon attacks village, people band together to fight it off and everyone that participates gains something, but if nobody participates perhaps the village will be demolished.
Fear: Grind based! I have such a fear that the game will be grind based, I don't actually think it will but Im scared that it may end up this way. Casuals > Hardcore and this is coming from someone that plays 5+ hours a day usually. Titles are fine as long as they offer no in-game benefit! My largest fear is items=power (WoW anyone?). If it gets to the point where there is no cap on damage/stats for an item... I won't be buying, period. When items keep getting stronger it allows even the most unskilled player to do very well if they have all the time/money, and that is NOT right.

Hope: PvE will be a bigger challenge and Hard Mode is put in soon after release. And that different races get special skill/traits other then looks *like norn can transform and whatnot*, most people disagree with that I think but I think it will make things more interesting.
Fear: That they do not include my all 3 favorite professions *necro, sin, rit*.
