The whole Wintersday event has been amazing, just as Halloween was before it. I have heard some argue over the point that Wintersday should have been held in Divinity’s Reach instead of hosted in LA. To me, that’s neither here nor there.
An interesting idea, to me, would be the thought of cultural festivals for each race. There are these big beautiful cities dotted around Tyria, currently, being underused (opinion).
Why not something like:
A Norn festival, maybe similar to Oktoberfest, great venue for the keg brawl. Also contests like the drinking challenge in the Order of Whispers storyline.
A Sylvari “Earth-day” inspired festival. Maybe mud pies instead of snowballs?
Charr could maybe have a “4th of July” style festival celebrating the day they over-threw the shamans. Fireworks!! Maybe mini gladiator fights?
Asura since all they celebrate is themselves and their own genius, maybe a puzzle themed “science day” kinda festival.
Humans have so many to choose from already, with, no doubt many more to come. I just think it would be a fun way to get a better look at some of the lore and cultural aspects of each race. Thanks for reading, see you in game.
