They are probably going to keep it as a recurring temporary thing until the whole game is finished, and that won’t be for awhile as Lord Vanquish has confirmed his castle is at the end of World 4.

I’m 100% sure it will be taken out again after 2 weeks. Then they will continue build more on it, and then open it up again many months later.

This is one instance where I actually think the temporary content works. The novelty would get old pretty fast if things like the Super Adventure Box stayed around permanently and the community would quickly lose interest. Bringing it back every few months with some new levels and new rewards is a good way to keep it exciting, without overstaying its welcome.

Except you’d still get that even if it was permanent. You’d still get the same enjoyment, cause it has new stuff, and you can stop doing it when you want, and know you could go back to it (if it was permanent).

Disagree. I think that in this case the temporary nature of the content adds to its specialness. It’s arguably the most well loved activity in GW2 and people are already getting psyched up for it. It’s like Christmas or Halloween, you need to find just the right amount of saturation, if it hangs around for too long it can cheapen the experience(see Christmas carols in malls the day after Remembrance Day). I’m all in favour of this being a permanent piece of temporary content.

It will probably stay for the whole month, not for just 2 weeks, like back in April.

I hope it stays this time. It is way kitten ring then most of the dungeons in this game and those get to always stay.

Other than its reminder of gaming generations gone by, I think it offers a great end game experience. It may seem out of place, but it adds a nice touch of levity to the game. I’d take SAB over Living Story any day.

They are hiding from the pitchfork and torches.

I dunno, failing to be fully honest, or hiding just doesn’t help things.

He apparently turned it off (he said so in another thread).

But a whole month of SAB jumping! Whoopy!

And I hope we’ll see a partially finished level 1 for world 3 this time too (we did see a partially finished level1 for world 2 the previous time).

I hope not, it’s bad enough that my chests are still not going to give me anything good, from voting tickets, to queens entry tickets and now to mario coins. Great.

It doesn’t stay according to what I’ve sifted from how SAB is set to be available only from time to time. It will return for world 3 and world 4 again later though, isn’t that so?

That is SO cheating. I’m going to say because Josh responds to these more than any other Dev, though, so he is trying not to draw people into threads just because he happened to make some random comment.

I think this is worth dragging people into, though, since it is a confirmation.

A month is long enough. As the saying goes: Too much of anything is bad for you. In the beginning of SAB the place was packed but after awhile people got continuously tired of it. Hope they’ll add another installment 6 months to a year from now or even a part II. Maybe they’ll add armor skins. That would be interesting.
