Guild Wars 2

What exactly are we getting for £35/$50?
How many new explorable areas? How big?
New dungeons? World bosses? How long will the core story to HoT be, 2 season? 3 season?

Tell me why I should put down £35 for it, because right now, we know barely anything about what we will be getting exclusively with HoT.

This is pretty much the reason I haven’t ordered yet.

It’s also the reason I get confused when people say HoT doesn’t have a lot of content.

Nobody knows, but as ANet communication is….well, not the best, until someone confirms something we can guess that there will be not so much new areas.

The emphasis so far has been in telling us how crowded the new map will be, with 3 areas that are almost 3 different maps, so whatever size has the HoT map would count as three times the same area in core GW2.

This leads me to think that this new area(s) will be not very, very big, and not very numerous. I’d be surprised if there is more than one map, actually.

My guess, in PvE mode, is that there will be one single map, half the size of Queensdale or equivalent area, but that counts triple because the “areas” thing, so roughlt Queensdale and a half.

If I’m optimistic, I can go up to 2 maps, so if we count the triple area thing as true, we would get something the size of Orr.

With the little information available, and how they have been doing updates until now, I cannot be more optimistic than that.
