Korten, bravo. This feels almost like having a game shop built right next to your house. The Escapist neighborhood needed a high-concentration GW2 info thread.

It's official, my first character is going to be an Asura Thief. I don't even need to know what the other classes are.

I'd also like to post up a couple of nifty points of view as to why the GW2 professions are different than, say, WoW or SWTOR classes. in this article [http://tap-repeatedly.com/2011/03/13/breaking-barriers/], the author sympathizes with us as to how difficult it is to explain that GW2 is really and truly DIFFERENT. That and why it's so hard for "some people" to comprehend what's going on.

Also, pretty much every question asked in the thread that has been unanswered so far, is addressed in the ANet PAX East Panel [http://www.gamespot.com/events/paxeast2011/video.html?sid=6303654], I strongly invite anyone who has questions or is extremely confused about what exactly GW2 is to watch it. Warning, very long. The video about an hour, but every second is worth it (even the new manifesto video at the beginning).

My bad, Here's the right one [http://www.gamespot.com/events/paxeast2011/video.html?sid=6303654], also fixed the original. Warning again: the video is an hour long.

As you can tell from my Avatar, I as a fan of GW just as anyone on this thread so I'm glad I saw this thread. I been checking GW2 Wiki and Guild War 2 on youtube for the updates but yeah it's been quiet lately.
I really hoping that the Assassin will be in Guild Wars 2 or be under a new name.
I know that you made this post last year, but seeing it beside your new avatar was just hilarious.

Nice to see them winning more awards, their art work is truly stunning. The Art Book, is just amazing to read through.

Also I finished the conference video you posted, it was epic...

I am sick of rangers having pets... I just want to be a lone badass with a bow. I don't need a furry pet to help me kill when my arrow flys through the air at a range and strikes my enemy before it knows what happened.

A ranger should be able to fire an arrow at a distance and if the target closes in, they should also be competent in close combat albeit maybe a bit weaker. BAH, looks like imma be a Necromancer.
