Guild Wars 2

Bravo Anet, that was some grade A character development and voice acting I was excited to see Destiny’s Edge 2.0 showing up for more then just a bit of combat.

SPOILER!!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was interesting seeing Brahms affection for Rox, the community was teasing around with this for a bit but it kitten near jumped out in our faces with their little fight. Having been with the living story from the beginning even I was a bit agitated when she mentioned joining Stone Band. It instilled a nice, emotional response from me I wasn’t expecting

Speaking of emotional responses. I hope I wasn’t the only one who got teary-eyed when Kasmeer recounted her story. At first I was dejected from it, but you tripped switches and flicked levers, then drove right into my heart. I wanted to give her all 137 gold pieces I had right there. And buy her a new teddy. The Majory comes in and comforts her perfectly, honestly the was awesome.

Now, to one of my new favorite characters. Taimi. I have no idea where she came from, noticed her pop up when I fought the marionette in lane 1. Honeslty I thought she was a stand-in character to fill out the lanes. (I had alrready seen Rox, Brahm, Majory and Kasmeer.) I had been curious then, Wiki’ed up on her found little to know info and shrugged it off. I honestly wish I had done the story instance first, she’s hilarious and a little smart kitten. It was a delight finally “meeting” Her.

Now onto my issues.
First Rytlok and especially Logan’s presence felt extremely forced. They felt like they didn’t need to be there and they where there to simply relate to players, perhaps just coming into the living story.

Second Taimi… This may be her first character introduction, or I may have missed her a while back but i’m honestly interested in this character. I want to know where she came from, what her motives are, we got a peak at it when she was speaking with Logan and Majory but she seemed to pop up far to fast with very little warning, it felt a tad sloppy. Of course her dialog and seemingly control over the situation she was in earned a spot in my fav characters.

Last, this is a little one. But I disliked how they all seemed “Herded” into the same place. I wouldn’t have minded a bit of wandering for each characters isolated scenes. It’s not a big deal as the rest was presented amazingly.

All in all 8/10 Twas some character dev guys, keep up the good work.
