Got back from campus and finished the article. Interesting it seems that everything will be well rounded in story wise. I am still curious about the Seer’s and what happened to them, whether they left Tyria or just went into hiding. I think their background should come full circle with EotN.

However, as this I'm guessing was an official press release about GW:EN, why not just give them the date too

Because i am sure they have no idea on a date yet. They're probably lucky if they know what month they are going to finish in. If they can't fix a problem, and have to delay the date then people will get annoyed. Believe me i know.

The 3 Asura standing around the sides look great. I notice the middle Asura that resembles the mini pet actually has pupils instead of blank eyes though this will probably change.Not that interested in the Norn but the whole Ascaloian force that have gone deep behind Charr lines sounds really interesting.Plus the detail on that Charr with the fire wand is great. It actually looks fox/lion like.

Kinda looks weird with pupils though O.o

Also has anyone seen any pics of the Sylvari besides the one that was in the onle issue of PC Gamer? (if I remember right, that being the magazine)

*sighs* Yeah, still no information about the Sylvari, save for one conceptual image...

Gwen and the Sylvari, the great mysteries I await.

Unless its a typo.

"Exposing them as a front for powerful, yet mortal creatures"

doesn't sound like:

"Exposing them as simply powerful, yet mortal creatures"

"A front for..." means a deception/decoy or middle man for someone or something else. Like using someone for a plot like the Lich did to get the scepter.

They'll never release info for them. However when we get the info about them, no doubt it'll be something big.

CAN'T WAIT

That's exactly what I was thinking...

I think you should read that as "The white mantle deities were exposed as a front for powerful, yet mortal creatures [namely, the Mursaat]"

That doesn't prohibit the possibility of someone/thing using the Mursaat...
The Mursaat and the ambiguity of what side those guys are on is still a major loose end in the Prophecies story-line imo.

Kalki · May 22, 2007, 03:24 AM // 03:24

The charr look cooler than ever althought it's NO FAIR they get old ascalon setting all too themselves.

Sounds similar regardless. I think they would have been better off making that part of the write up a lot more clearer.

But I agree with what you said about the loose end in the story.

I think I heard somewhere that’s it is at the end of EotN you finally get to meet them. Not to sure, but I think it’s only a glimpse.

Asrial · May 22, 2007, 04:12 AM // 04:12

My monk is quiet and humble, allowing Adelbern his glory.

My warrior and ranger want to 'fix' the mistake made by historians.

My assassin and dervish are going to head to Tyria and think Adelbern is badass.

I seriously SERIOUSLY cannot wait for Eye of the North.

Looking at that Norn, I'd love it if at least one of the male Norn had a name like Sally.

"I am the mighty, manly, ferocious warrior, Sally! What are you snickering at?"

Guildmaster Cain · May 22, 2007, 08:03 AM // 08:03

It looks Hero-like. At least it isnt attacking the player. Or this is a screenshot from a ingame scene ofc.
Well he certainly looks a lot more detailed then the old charr.
