Guild Wars 2

I noticed that ArenaNet is working a lot on soo many aspects of this game. Which is great…

However, one of the biggest things I like about GW2 is the Personal Stories.
What I like to know is have ArenaNet started working on Expanding Personal Stories with more voice acting and perhaps going with GW1 style of cutscenes cinematic and immersive fun instances? Or have they stopped working on it entirely?

I have all 8 characters and I’d like to know if ArenaNet is currently working on expanding Personal Stories with improvements or if they have just gave up on this specific Content.

Did ArenaNet give up on Expanding the Personal Stories?
Or are they currently working on this content and not saying much about it?

They’re not working on that and probably never will. They’re focusing on the living story thing, which is a big all-encompassing “one size fits all” plot missions.

Typically there is a pre launch dev team and a post launch that might include some original members. Its an unfortunate fact of employment and modern society for most developing projects of any kind. This being said its unlikely IMO that such intensive content such as the main personal story quest would be re-polished for other than functional issues.

But I think they should work on expanding the personal story missions because they can improve on these in a lot of areas.

It be like MassEffect DLC where they can sell every 10 expanded chapters and make profit off it.

It’s always fun to continue the journey of your character from where it’s left off.
Also make cut scenes cinematic like GW1 would be a welcome addition to the overall experience.

It’s not that they can’t do this. It’s that they already make way more money through RNG boxes. It’s not worth the effort for them.

Keeping the game fun and fresh in all aspects is important. It’s what makes people want to spend money for the game in the first place.

Don’t you worry, I’m sure more personal story will be available for unlock through a Black Lion Store gem bought RNG box.

Because everyone loves those :D

Yeah, I hope they focus back on Personal Story but I guess they are seriously leaving the PS idea to the dust…

IMO, there were less aspects to look at before LS. I’d like to see them expanding it too. And I agree, they should leave the LS, most of the stories aren’t tied to the world anyways so I don’t care that much(I tried, honestly) as I’d with some actually connected to it.

I fear they’d put Trahearne and Scarlet together to make the perfect Mary Sue couple… inviting you to the wedding.

I think I understand why ArenaNet gave up on Personal Story…
Nobody wants it back as much as I do…

Great, No Elder Dragons to defeat after Zhaitan!
No permenant content to experience another epic adventure.

Seems like people want more Living Story and no Personal Story missions!

Good job guys!

I miss personal story a lot

Best idea I have heard in ages. I would totally pay for new story chapters. They can add a few cool rewards/ achievements in there to get people to buy them who aren’t just interested in the story, and I’ll get to have some new adventures that make me feel special! +100

We need Solaire of Astora.

Everything is better with Solaire of Astora.XD

Me too. And I’m sorry to see that this Personal Story forum is almost totally abandoned. It looks like a very bad sign for the game’s future. I want story, I want my character to live – not to be a machine to farm for a new tier of armor. It can understand it’s impossible to reach level of storytelling like in one-player RPG, but something surely can be done, little steps, but SOMETHING to continue some really nice ideas we’ve seen in first chapters of Personal Story (before Orders of Tyria).

I like the personal story. I doubt that there will be a continuation, but I would like to see the whole storyline revamped instead of a sequel.

They will continue the story as soon as Trahearne has a baby with Zhaitan and gives birth to a character even worse than geeky arrogant tree.
