Guild Wars 2

After seeing the little stage in Wayfarer Foothills with an actor on it doing a show about Mad King Thorn for Halloween, I think it would be really cool if you added a theatre to Divinity’s Reach and showed mini plays there.

It would be a bit of work for the writing team, but I think it would be fun and different.

You could sell tickets to attend the play and people could collect them. You could also give achievements for seeing all of the years play’s. Maybe if you see them all you get a special mask skin or something?

They wouldn’t need to be really long or anything. A bit longer than the Halloween guy’s performance maybe, but not hours.

Divinity’s Reach seems most suited to having a theatre to me, but they could have guest performances from Norn npc’s telling people legends as well.

What do people think?

I think there would very limited interest because unfortunately, you cannot grind in a theatre. Seriously, I like the idea, but I guess neither casuals, nor roleplayers nor hardcore players would really visit more than once, and considering the amount of work this would require… an open air theatre, right in Lion’s Arch where many people are, with some sort of interaction would be a better idea as would also make the world feel a little more vivid.

That’s a good idea. A little like Mad King Says?

Maybe if players and not npcs could be the actors, and they’d recieve some sort of reward for participating it would attract more people, besides the plot would turn out different every time so it would be more fun to watch…
But idk if doing something like that could be in the posibilities of the devs.
