Looks cool, I'm wondering exactly when its coming out though.

I'm thinking either the end of the summer or like September or something?

Perfect timing...not .

I still preffer the first Factions video. There was this calm music shwoing the continent and then changed to a combat theme as the scene changed to a assassin charging into a afflicted, i was convinced to buy the game at that exact moment ^^

Dungeons look cool... I just hope that's not 90% of whats in EotN. I don't like being in Dungeons for all of the time. They make me feel claustrophobic.

For some reason this did not make me want to get GW:EN more then I do right now. I want to have it right now, but mostly of what I have found out in articles, this was mostly "meh" stuff. Dinosaurs though? Wicked.

The only thing I dislike are the blatantly reused fixtures. Those flame vents (shown around 0.50) are all too familiar from Sorrow's Furnace and Sunjiang District. Worse, the stairs (1.00) are a blatant copy of the Nolani ones (walk outside Nolani Academy and you'll know what I mean), and the four-legged beast (1.42) seems to be using the same old Rot Wallow animation.

Recurring old content isn't necessarily bad, but passing it off as new content is. Specific features just make it easier for people to realize they didn't get an "all new" episode

I think it looks great. I'm really looking forward to it. I think some are being a little nit-picky if you ask me. A 3 min video and you are unhappy with 10 seconds of it? Besides, it makes sense that some fixtures look the same...it is the same game after all. GW2 is the one I would expect to be very different, you have to expect GW:EN will look similar in some respects. By the way...there is a better quality video and some pics here with the original article here: http://pc.ign.com/articles/793/793584p1.html.

The portal reminded me of Stargate SG1.
Agreed, I can't wait to go through the Stargat.... Ausurian Portal Doo Hicky . Also thought the dinning room looked like something out of the haunted mansion.

I for one like the similarities, it shows it's the same planet, same storyline. It wouldn't make a lot of sense if you went underground and everything was absolutely different. Can't wait, this preview looks really good, and it can only get better. I hope they do another high res cinematic like Factions or Prophicies, I missed having one for NF (yes, I know they're expensive I read that thread months ago).

I think that after the dungeons, there are still like 2 or 3 different branching storylines...one will take place in the shiverpeaks, and the others are probably outside as well. 18 multilevel dungeons + those areas, and this should be a fairly large PvE map.
