Outside of the announced expansion and normal events, I'm going to predict the following:
Game improvements: player item auction functionality, more interface improvements/tweaks, player pet changes, new armor types.
Any number of game improvements implemented over the next year will go a long way to keep people engaged.

- Staying in touch with what's going on in the world of GW through the main website and forums.
If more detailed information about how the Hall of Monuments system will work... then this may change:
- Don't need to know exactly what I'll get for doing/having X. Just general information like if GW1 accomplishments can transfer to future GW2 accounts at any time (like an Account-Unlock that even existing GW2 characters can go to the Hall of Monuments and receive). Will there be a different bonus Per Title for all titles? Will there be a bonus for different levels of a title? This kind of info would convince me to buy GW:EN and buy missing GW1 Chapters right now like Nightfall. It would pull me back to playing GW1 because I have a better idea of what effect it has on my GW2 time.
- Whether special event items like candy canes will transfer (otherwise why bother with events like Wintersday?). My free time is too valuable to be spent gathering items to trade in for Candy Canes when I could be winning booster packs drafting in Magic:The Gathering Online.
- GW:EN without a Hall of Monuments system that interests me means I just continue what I'm currently doing and wait for GW2. Will then just look forward to a fresh start.

I'm still trying to choose between getting lots of titles on the same character or getting each of them one or two..

Anet shouldn't wait that long to launch GW: Eye of The North. The good thing about Nightfall's release, is that it was not to far off and not to close after Faction's. It came just at the right time when I got bored with Prophecies and Factions all together. Factions is my favorite campaign (mainly cause I'm bias to the fact it was my first GW campaign and I love the armor) but after a while it just got quickly boring and Prophecies.....the more I play it, the more I realized I'm just doing it to kill time because I'm very bored. Guild Wars being the only game I care to associate with, yet the only game I can spare some time for, has really gotten very boring. I'm more of the pve type, so yeah I've been seeing a lot of these pvp events pretty lame and unnecesary (although, its great for those who are move into pvp over pve). Naturally when I login in GW trying to find something to do, but nothing after being done beating the missions, getting atleast a few titles (don't have the time to get all of hem) the good greens, golds and stuff my 11 pve's (playing all classes including 2 assassins (1 male, 1 female: Yeah, yeah, I love the Sin.) with so many sets of ascended armor that Anet should atleast consider making an armor storage for us lovely armor collectors. (Which they really should, considering Anet's conjured up 40 new armor sets for GW: EN. If anet doesn't, there wouldn't be much purpose of taking any character over, even though I'd really love to.) Yeah, I know 11 pves? Well after a while, you learn the shortcut of getting your characters to level 20 pretty quickly.
The only PVP I do is AB and that's when I'm really, reaaaaaaaaaaaally bored and that's just very boring. Noticing how Anet has ignored AB and kept the interchanging maps over and over and over. Whenever I enter the area you see so many players already complaining of how boring ab is and that they could atleast make some new maps - anything w/e.
But point being, All three campaigns are already boring. (Now watch someone kiss ass to Anet) There are only so many limited ways from left to right, right to left and so on to conquering the game. And yeah, even though I have made 11 pves, it was kinda really boring going through the same quests and missions over and over. Come on now, after 11 pves it does get really boring. So for Anet's sake, I hope they really consider to pull the release of GW: EN to come in a bit earlier. Who knows? Some rival company might come up with a game sooo good it would drive away the interest of most of Anet's consumers. And who knows about GW 2 if it actually turns out the way I didn't expect, I'd probably get it too, but for the meantime...Anet hurry up! LOL. (Yeah, yeah, I decided to give it a damn shot...maybe.)

Hard mode and maxing sunspear/lightbringer are the part of the same thing. Hard mode will not only be for missions but for explorable areas.
It will give you harder monsters with better loot; the lightbringer and sunspear are no doubt the same as the bounty system now except a harder area will give more points.
what i find slightly ironic and funny is that some people are making a fuss about leaving (partly cuz transfering characters). you can stop playing if you really want to....o_0
They want to leave because theyve put so much effort into their work and they cant transfer but hows leaving going to solve this problem? What about your so called effort?

Even with the hard mode, it's still going to get boring. Don't get me wrong. I love Guild Wars. I think it's the best video game out there. You really can have an actual real life and play this game. However, it is boring (as I said before) now. The good thing with the majority of the missions and quests is that you can take them on with your henchies and heroes). The most you are gonna see in hard mode when it comes to team play is major character discrimination where some pretentious noob that dictates everyone's build (even if you know your build is way better than what that noob demanded.) and thinks the only thing to get by are his idea of the "elite" team. (Mainly rejecting ever non-core profession, especially the Assassin - which only noobs would never comprehend it's a great class if used right.)
Anet still needs to hurry it up.

I still encounter crap assassins. Call me wary or stubborn, but the crap to skilled assassin ratio is still not worth it. Friends and guildies I know who use assassins are very good at them. But most randoms are not.

I'm hoping that the "Title Rush" will fill up the mission area more...
Not that we "need" people to do the missions, but it sure makes them more fun.

GW1 held us for > 1 year. And the SF expansion was not that large when you look at the grand scheme of things.
I think the do stuff in GW1 for GW2 unlocks will be a big factor as well.
But the main thing for me, if I'm bored, I put GW down and do something else, and come back latter.
Edit - Pet changes / controls are in the works Gaile mentioned and in final stages of testing.

We got different events left in Tyria, Canthan and NF. Not to mention preview event for GW:EN and maybe GW 2 before it is release. Also if you have console systems (PS3, PS2, Xbox360, Wii, whatever) you got plenty of games to play with before GW 2 is released.

And the Beta for GW:EN won't take place until around, my guess...and of course... October 28, or like November 21 or something.
So even then, thats still like 7 months of waiting...the beta isn't going to be here for a long time!

Would you care to point out the big holiday in Q3 to make people refer to it and NOT Christmas as the Holiday Season?
