My experience with the Rox and Braham living story missions were good.
The biggest highlight for me was finding out that Eir has a son. My main is a norn so that tid bit of lore got my complete attention since Eir is a big part of the norn campaign. So who’s the father?
The conversation cut-scenes are the least appealing of the experience. This goes for both missions. The camera is too far away. Even though i could see their mouths move not seeing their expressions made the moment very dull. These conversations would have been better off in the same style as the GW2 campaign. I still hold the story telling of Guild Wars 1 as the best of all the other MMOs that I hope GW2 would someday achieve.
Lastly, the combat is way too easy. Totally mowed everything down in pure berserker gear.
Good work, Anet. I’ll be looking forward to the conclusion.
