Just hope that as you gain a reputation with one group, say the dwaves, and you get tired of the dwarves and go to hang out with the Norns, your dwarven reputation won't go down like it does in Factions where if you do something for the Kurzicks the Luxons will hate you until you reprove your loyalty to the Luxons at which time the Kurzicks will hate you.

I feel kind of selfish but would almost rather have a sept 30th release date than an august 31st. That is literally 1-2 days before I move back to school.
Of course, July 31st would be fine

All this talking about grinding reputation with diffrent factions for rewards sounds exactly how the main timesink in WoW was designed ;/ And I hoped GW will remain fun for players who don't want to devote hours upon hours on grinding ;/

Don't see much of a reason for Guild Wars to have a timesink since it's not pay-to-play, unless they're like counting participation hours or something?

Just like the first "Developer Diary" this is just another load of advertising spiel written by the devs.
(I'm still gonna buy it though)

what about pvp content? looks like pvp players will have to buy it just for a few new skills and not much else just as in the past..
as for pve, i'm sure the design will be gorgeous. i just don't like the whole grinding concept. i mean it's implied that gaining favor of a race needs a lot of quest grind to get some pve only skills. with loot scale in place, it doesn't look too bright for me. imagine how much grind will be required to get new armors.

I think Polymock and the previously mentioned Asura Chess are most likely one and the same.
Personally I'm very excited by all this news. I'm really intrigued the timesink minigames and interesting quests. Yet, somehow we're 3 pages into this thread and there's been no "Yet another reason not to buy GWEN". I'm almost ashamed, Guru.

I do not want to start a pvp vs pve argument, but this is just true. PvP did not get much except skills, and I think this is not enough if GW is really a "PvP game", as I was told so often in the past.
