I sincerely hope you don't. Players like you kill the fun for everyone else because you seem to lack the ability to find joy in anything.

I play the game a couple of hours everyday; I'd play longer if I had the time, but like most people I have a full time job. After 3 and a half years, I've yet to lose interest in playing the game. I have goals I still want to reach, guildies/allies/friends that I adore playing with, and its just simply fun for me. I very much look forward to trying GW2, and if, for some reason, I don't like it, I'll return to GW1.

Honestly, if you think GW is dead or not worth the money/time, WHY are you still here?

Sounds like a good idea. Although, I think most of us are guilty of at least one count of flaming/trolling at some point.

just to put in perspective, GW was (and STILL is) more successful than Age of Conan, Warhammer Online, and Fury. COMBINED. it will likely outlast all three games... well, it has already outlasted Fury. GW is incredibly resilient to the test of time; there are dozens of games that have born, lived, and died in the 4 years of GW's existence, some of them much higher profile and much heavily marketed.

Could everybody STOP the crap-chat about if GW1 is dead or not? that was just one opinion of one player, is not so important to argue that for 3 pages of a thread, a GW2 thread BTW.

Rip GW!
You are a little late my friend, maybe a week ago people would've believed you... but now... you are probably all alone.

6 mil accounts, not 6 mil players. It would be closer to 2 mil players, active and inactive. At least halve it for active.

Besides, I was cutting out the three most active locations. You practically triple the amount. If not more. And probably would be more.

Few of us are guilty of multiple accounts of flaming/trolling the game like Boris.

Looks like more Orr to me.
Color scheme is the same and if you look at the building, it sorta has the same design of the top of this Orr one:

No... He has a point, what have we gotten ? A few concept art and a flash of a dragon logo. The game will be released most likely 2010 - 2011. As for GW ? Time will tell.

I'm willing to bet that not only is it not dead, but that since that silly dragon appeared on the GW2 site player activity has skyrocketed as old players remember why they love the game.

Ah, you beat me to the punch. Yeah, I'd say that's more Orr - note the similar material (I don't believe we've seen those big blocks of whatever anywhere else, have we?) and the same oil-slick rainbows.

Second guess would be more Ebonhawke, given the feather-like relief on the left side.

Actually I think this is another close up of Ebonhawke (did I spell that right?)

Anyway, if you look up in the upper left hand corner, you can see what looks like carved feathers. Makes me think of the back of the birds heads at the top of that gate. Looks like a wall up top with people standing there. It's just turned on an angle.

It's been confirmed that we get a trailer tomorrow. We're all just blowing time until then.

In ~14 hours we'll get more stuff. Thankfully, I'll be sleeping through most of that wait.

Pretty sure it was confirmed to be Ebonhawke somewhere by ANet.

No, that was the last concept art piece. The newest one hasn't been confirmed (unless it was confirmed in the last 30 minutes).

I predict people will look back on this day and remember that pretty logo on that otherwise blank website as a high point of Guild Wars 2.

What do ya think ANet? Want to start proving me wrong occasionally?

And about the concept art It couldn't be ebon hawk cause everyone would've slipped off if standing near the feather that is in close up if you look good to both pieces.

I know but if you look at the Ebonhawke Artwork It doesn't resemble as you easily could slip off the Ebonhawk if you look good.

Hmm it looks like Orr But ALOT people already suggested Orr And it hasn't been Confirmed.
It can't be Ebonhawke standing at the place of feathers near the Ebonhawke concept art would let you fall down of the Ebonhawke.
