Thumbs up New Login/Character Selection Screen!

Does anyone besides me LOVE the new character selection location?

I'm loving the EPIC background music.

But I kinda like water better than snow.

I love this screen. It brings me back to Prophecies which was my favourite era of the game. The music is awesome as well. A VERY nice change from that Nightfall one **shudder**

As someone who has lived up north and seen the Aurora Borealis (spelling?) It makes me love this even more. Though a greener tinge to the Lights would be even better

Oh god... Well, its good, but we can chat about that in-game. ;-)

Anyway, I think this is the best background yet. Although I still liked the one that came after the old Ascalon one. (The one where you were on a big column in the middle of the ocean)

I really like the music reminds me of LOTR. I also noticed the nice shadowing of my characters as the light hits them. (Why couldnt Anet release GW:EN early in the summer )

I like it a lot. I was very tired of the nightfall one. I liked the NF one when it first came out, but now...well i'll just say this new one is very refreshing.

No, it was post-searing with a Campfire.

The unique thing about Prophecy was you could see all your 4 Characters at once (you cycled them to the front).

I've hated the Nightfall menu since it first came out, so to me this change is a godsend. Now I really want GW:EN...

I freaking loved the nightfall music but they made it WAY too quiet. So all you could hear was the annoying sounds rather than the epicness.

Factions had my favorite theme, is that hosted anywhere?

This one is alright, I like changes, but I can see it getting old.

As for the login screen itself... FAR OUT MAN!

Edit: I take it back, I don't see this music getting old for a while. I still want the factions one to play after it then.

EY! They should have it play em in order if you listen long enough. EN-NF-Factions-Proph
