The concept art animation reminds me of Relic style cinematic cutscenes, wise move on Arenanet in making full use of their concept art as it is one of their strongest asset.

Holy molly, the video made me wet... been long since there's a game that made me so... Only thing now is I pray hard they will maintain the same pricing scheme.

Pricing will remain the same, confirmed long ago and also in the FAQs.

Hmm i recall the first gw launch, the pre-order people get to play first hand before giving free trial to everyone for a period of time but anyways i was hoping the previous GW owner get to play beta first hand. hehehehe......

They also announce that we can solo all the way unlike the first GW, there is no way in hell i could complete the level without full party.
*
There is a few Preview Events and Beta Weeks prior to GW launch, which i'm lucky to get into and get hooked.

Maybe solo they mean also have AI allies in party?, GW can finish without real players in party using Heroes and Henchmen.

Yo, just taking this opportunity to ask any local players who might be interested in getting Art of Guild Wars 2 book, it's been officially confirmed by Anet that the book won't come with GW2:CE when GW2 releases, currently there is only 2 ways of getting the book as seen here. I am thinking to do a bulk so to save cost of shipping, I might get it via LYN forumer who does trade service frequently in LYN forums, I can't guarantee the bulk will be realized as means to get it is not finalized, if you got any better sources or means, I can consider getting them via you too.

So, just a rough figure on how many is interested at this stage, raise your hands. smile.gif

Currently I can get the book via a trader around RM180 each excluding local shipping, i think it will reach just a shy off RM200 with local shipping included, tho only me and tanleeseng is able to stomach that price.

To give a clearer picture, the book costs 30USD.
30USD = RM102 via google currency covert.
so the shipping is nearly the same cost of the book itself.

Jus wanna confirm the price.

The game haven't have a release date yet, but the price should be like any other current release games around RM150+(regular edition) onwards I think when the game comes, beta should come in 2010.

There will be beta and preview event I imagine, since it doesn't require monthly fees, at RM1 a day you can even get the Collector's Edition if release late 2010, anyway no official released date yet, could be 2011 also.

finished reading.
seems like got 10 slot for skills now.
lots of players have been whining for this for a long time.

but the first five skill slots is decided by what weapon the player is holding though.

that leaves only remaining 5 for player customization.
5 instead of 8.
bah.
*
Well previously some essential skills pretty much take 2-3 slots of the total 8 slots.

The trilogy pack is worth it due the extreme low price, maybe you can get a glimpse of the dev's vision and game background, GW is different from other MMOs/RPGs.

Question : If I get it via steam, do I HAVE to logon steam to play it? (I'm thinking no?)

You don't have to login Steam to play GW since your GW account is different from Steam's.
