I know that term got started by the reporters and the magazines, so does that mean its a direct quote from an Anet member of staff or did they just steel a word from WoW or some other MMO because their lazey?

Aside from that, the screen caps and art work look cool.
The dungeoun thing is just like the Inquirer said. That was something that was misleading. if you look at that collection of info that Inde set up it more or less says that the first part of GW:EN will consist of 18 underground levels in the catacombs. (Since the catacombs ARE underground.) Guess people just make the connection to put dungeoun=catacombs.

And hellz yeah the screenshots are off the chain.

You are wandering through the countryside and you see a dragon flying overhead. You and a group try to stave off the dragon. If you are successful the nearby town gives you a treasure.

But if you don't drive off the dragon, the bridge will be destroyed. This will lead to a team of carpenters gathering at the bridge to try to fix it and then you will have to protect them from bandits.


While I doubt that the in-game experience will play out like this. (Read some interviews about Factions where they hyped Alliance Battles) It's clear that A-net is shifting the focus away from instancing - which should open up a lot of possibilities.

Well presently in Guild Wars theres only one way to do quests.

You either succeed or you fail.

If you fail, you start over.

It looks like they are making quests that "branch out".

Fail, and the quest changes to something else.

Sounds very plausible to me.

If you mean in the 'Dungeon 1' picture, it looks like Balthazar to me. You can see him holding the sword on the ground. I've also seen a similair pic in the current guild wars somewhere.

Edit: I knew I'd seen it somewhere. It's in pockmark flats and it is the same picture.

Gaile has said that GW2 will be DX 10 ready but it will not be required. I doubt they can give system requirements already, its way too early the game may not release till 2010, the world can end by then, who knows, all I know is that they have said they will make it so even low end computers will be able to play the game.
