I would rather they incorporate Utopia into GW2! I really liked the idea of Aztec setting and huge beetles! The game I played before GW had those two things and I really loved it.

The Chronomancer, I don't know about that class though... looks harder than Mesmer and I have a knack for trying out less user friendly classes lol. I don't want to get caught up in another one!

EOTN I just plain hate. For one I didn't really have much motivation to start it, and I'm not even done it yet, but I already hate it so far. More grind, more titles, more pve skills, more empty outposts since h/h continue to dominate PvE. At least Gwen's lines are pretty funny. Really liked Against The Char and Grothmar Wardown landscape... but the running around involved is nuts and those 2 things don't make up for everything.

EoTN is fine.

In the long run, we'd run out of things to do in Utopia and we'd still have to wait for Gw2 with a later release because they finished Utopia.

Plus, more class/skills = hard to balance.

I think they made the right choice in going for GW2. The only problem is the time it takes to make it leaves a very slow painful death for GW1. Plus the unfinished content in GW1 is a shame, no realms of the other gods in ToA, adding those 3 one by one as major updates would certainly extend life.

i wouldn't want either...

the only good thing that came out of eotn was the pretty graphics... which is pointless for the most part because the armours were just rehashed old armours and look like crap.

I like all the campaigns for different reasons. Every campaign has something unique and Im sure Utopia would have as much as EOTN has. I always thought a new campiagn every 6 months was optimistic. I think we could have had so much more in the way of content, new ideas and overall polish if the devs had more time between each one.

I would love a new campiagn for the old girl but I hope all the time leads to a nicely polished round 2 for the game.

So I will take EOTN because it actually exists. Then GW2 because it will get here. And utopia doesn't even get my consideration since it's only an idea and never gonna live.

KingCrab · Aug 08, 2009, 10:18 PM // 22:18

Definitely EotN. There are enough professions out there already, no need to cause things to blur together even more. Plus the dungeons are a lot of fun!

Lishy · Aug 08, 2009, 10:46 PM // 22:46

I'd take eotn since it is a fine expansion.

If you want to play GW:Utopia, just go to the asuran lands.

Tomm · Aug 08, 2009, 11:38 PM // 23:38

I like EotN as it is, and wouldn't change it.

But a new campaign would be nice, since GW2 will come in few years too long.

The Scorpion Knight · Aug 09, 2009, 12:21 AM // 00:21

Would have gone with Utopia myself, hopefully it's gw2 now.

Utopia because, frankly, the concepts are just astoundingly neat. I like EotN, but the cities, the styles they show in the Utopia concept art just look so vibrant. A bustling Aztec/Mayan metropolis, the costumes and styles, it just looked so much more fleshed out and developed than EotN ever could have been. I was really looking forward to wandering through the Tyrian Andes and especially huge Aztec-styled cities. Rata Sum is, at best, a disappointment when it comes to that idea.

I think my main gripe on the topic is that EotN was a bridge. It wasn't a grand, epic send off that GW1 and our characters deserved for an ending. It was a short bridge to no where. If they wanted to move off into GW2 after Prophecies, Factions, and Nightfall, then they should have developed a huge campaign on par with Prophecies that was an epic ending to an epic series of games. It seems like if they were able to develop and release Nightfall so soon after Factions, then they could have done the same with Utopia, considering the time they had between the release of Nightfall and EotN.

I greatly hope that Utopia makes it into GW2 though, it just looked like a lot of fun, and it was also very unique.

MMSDome · Aug 09, 2009, 04:27 AM // 04:27

Eye of the North was the right choice. New professions would have further broken an already broken game.

Sarevok Thordin · Aug 09, 2009, 06:18 AM // 06:18

EoTN was fine, but I'd rather a slew of info on GW2 come out over time.

Queenie · Aug 09, 2009, 09:41 AM // 09:41

Utopia plz.

Cale Roughstar · Aug 09, 2009, 01:43 PM // 13:43

A full campaign of skills and classes would have made things really quite complicated, though I am sure that we would have managed somehow.

Solas · Aug 09, 2009, 06:39 PM // 18:39

If Utopia didn't have asurans it would have been interesting.
I understand why they jsut moved to GW2 though.

The Little Viking · Aug 10, 2009, 03:58 AM // 03:58

I would have liked to see Utopia finished. New races or not. Im not a fan of EOTN. I like the scenery, and the storyline is...ok i guess. I'm not a fan of the dungeons. They were ok the first 4 or 5 times through, but they got old real fast. And I don't like how a lot of the dungeon areas are repeats of other dungeons. I don't like not even being able to get armor unless your lvl 5 in a particular title. that's crap. I still play in Prophesies and Factions, but that's about it. Im really running out of things to do fast. All the titles I wanted maxed are maxed, and I have seen all there is to see. I think everyone would agree when I say we are in desperate need of some new content. In my opinion, Utopia could have been finished (in a fashion) as another expansion (leave out the new races and new skills and no more titles to go with it) and just given us new areas to explore (to hold the majority while we wait for GW2) but released a year or so AFTER EOTN. At least that way we wouldn't be as board with the game as we are now.

Arachnephobia · Aug 10, 2009, 10:35 AM // 10:35

Eotn, because it's nice and short. Offers a whole lot like Dungeons, books, more titles, easier skill capping, PvE skills, more heroes, elite armor and the Hall of Monuments.

I love Eotn, and I would've loved to have Utopia to play with when I'm not in the mood for the other campaigns, but at the same time I'd rather have GW2 over Utopia.

I'm really hoping that GW2 will not become another Utopia and end up as a canceled probject. People are looking foreward to it, and quitting the current game for GW2. While we wait for the next game to hit the shelves, they really need to replenish the current GW game, so players will have a bit more to do whilst they wait for the supposed second game. Hell, even a bit of leaked info' would be awesome.

Skaarj · Aug 10, 2009, 06:51 PM // 18:51

Eye of the North, because it is the lesser of the two evils. A week's worth a PvE content does not necessarily make a great expansion, but I prefer that over all the trouble new professions would drag in.

Zahr Dalsk · Aug 10, 2009, 07:34 PM // 19:34

Suppose a new campaign without introducing new professions.

Mordakai · Aug 10, 2009, 08:28 PM // 20:28

...or what if the Chronomancer was PvE only?
