Man I loved that game so much and my GW account has no much blood sweat tears and money poured into it, I hope theres a changeover between games.
only character name will be kept as it takes place 200 or so years after GW so everyone we know is dead. :p
We know nothing about what will be kept exactly, only that it is somehow linked to the hall of monuments thing.
FAQ quote:
Can I play my original Guild Wars character in Guild Wars 2?
Guild Wars 2 is a whole new game with different professions and races, new technology, and expanded gameplay. It is not possible to directly use an original Guild Wars character.

However, your original Guild Wars character names will be reserved for your use in Guild Wars 2. The Hall of Monuments in Guild Wars 2 recognizes the accomplishments commemorated by your original Guild Wars characters and provides you with unique rewards to showcase those achievements.
Aka we dont know anything except that you cant use your original char, but you can keep the name. It doesn't say anything about how the stuff in your hall of monuments are gonna translate over to GW2 exactly. "Unique rewards" is very vague.

It sounds really good, but how much of all this are they actually gonna deliver? I'm looking forward to this as much as the next guy, but I'm afraid we're just gonna get a huge Molyneaux on our hands.
I mean, how much is hype and how much is actually gonna work out?
A-net has shown that they can delive a solid title already. Furthermore GW2 is pretty much just an expansion on the concepts of GW, so they have a lot of the design groundwork and experience down already. Also dont forget that GW2 has been in development for at least 3 years by now.

This game is extremely exciting, and I agree the more i hear about it, the more exciting it is (naturally, since it's essentially promotional info anyway. lol) I'm very interested in seeing how the personalization of characters and backstories (yes, your character will have his/her own backstory in GW2, crazy no?) affect the actual story. Oh yeah, and these vids [http://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/professions/elementalist/] are very exciting.

Here's a couple links for anyone looking for more info about what is so far shaping up to be one epic mmo:
