Guild Wars 2

Will this new story be instanced or will the region actually change?

I am hoping the region actually changes so it feels like a living world vs a living instance….

Same here, I’m with you, I was hoping it wasn’t instanced………

I don’t get why they would call it an, “Ever evolving, changing world!” If it will all be instanced….

Because thus far, most non-instanced content revolves around massive zergfests, and there are a lot of stuff you can’t do with a massive zergfest.

The most important of which is ask for co-ordination. Just one look at Tequatl will tell you that.

How is a massive tower, a destroyed village and a cut down forest not changing the world?

Because if it is instanced, tech the world is not actually changing. I’d like to see changes to the actual landscape in the open world. Not in an instance where when you come out all looks the same again…

And all the things that I mentioned ARE in the open world.
Everything except the Tower can be seen right now.

Idk why you’re trying to argue with me. All I want is it to be right there and not instanced

But it ISN’T instanced. That’s the whole point. You want stuff that changed the world that is not instanced. I pointed out several thing related to this update that changed the world and is not instanced.

I hope there is both an instanced and an open world part of it.
THe instanced part mostly to deliver us the story. Which is not easily presented through open world zergfests.

Seriously dude, go to Kessex right now, all those things he said, are right out in the open in the open world.

I don’t think he was talking more on the tower content than the surroundings. Simply put, I think he’s not saying that everything is instanced, but that he wants a raid-type deal or wants the tower to be open world and not dungeon/instanced.
