How does GW look RAW?

How do you people at Anet distinguish between the two Guild Warses anyway?

Guild Wars 1, Original Guild Wars, or just the plain 'Guild Wars' as opposed to Guild Wars 2?

I'm guessing in this case, the 'F' after 'GW' and before 'ritualist' is significant. Unless this is concept art for a Fritualist.

Giving the fact that GW2 will be able to run in DX10, I'm expecting some kick-ass eye candy. But of course, no game looks like it's concept art, especially since it looks more like an oil painting than some ingame material.

Loved it btw, the Sylvari picture looks beautiful, and that lone warrior by the look of the background, looks to be in ToB, with the giant statue?

I can't speak for Martin or Linsey, but I'm afraid my drawing days are far behind me.

Lolz. Don't count on seeing GW 2 screenshots this year. Regina already stated that they'll have a "limited" presence at PAX. (Its in her wiki archives. Have fun trying to find it. :P)

We probably won't get a screenshot until next year.

I like it. Reminds me of the History Channel series, "Life After People".

What?

I've been away from these foruns a while, did Anet annouce they'd reveal anything about GW2 in the meantime, or is that just a personal wish of yours?

edit: ninja'ed, so no GW2 info.

Nodakim · Jun 05, 2009, 08:46 PM // 20:46

There will be GW2 on PAX.
But the only thing I want are Screenshots,Cinematics and Gameplay videos.

Currently looks like i have to steal it,but no worries I will sacrifice myself in the name of GW2.

Roy_ · Jun 05, 2009, 08:52 PM // 20:52

I look at it this way...

Concept art makes better desktop backgrounds.

You will be rememebered for you efforts.. i think anets security is that of High secutity prison..

But to th epoint.. Yes rather impressive image . Remember that sometimes concept art is exactly in the game.. Great example is "Blade of Darkness" "Star Wars: Republic Commando"
