Guild Wars 2

I clearly heard in the PAX South livestream that you will be able to host events in your guild halls (http://www.twitch.tv/guildwars2/c/5954011 time 50:20). What do you think these events could be? I don’t think he means player created events (like a costume brawl contest or a “best outfit” contest).

Surely he means something along the line of hosting grand and interesting events like maybe duels? Or perhaps small dungeons? Or perhaps private Spvp servers that can only be accessed from within the guild halls once invited to participate. Does anyone else have speculations on what he meant by “hosting” events?

It exactly means player created events. The developers make the world, the players provide the entertainment. It’s a simple concept that goes way back to the original first MUDS and MMOs to follow. They don’t do EVERYTHING for you, sometimes there’s something called RP. If you think it’s nerdy to RP, then you’re in the wrong genre.

What? You mean all were going to do it get “fake drunk” and type laugh emotes in a circle and do nothing? Sorry I’m not on a RP server, if they want us to create what we want and provide entertainment then let the Guild Owners configure and set up their own dungeons and duel arenas and portals. You said it yourself, the player provides the entertainment. So let the players do what they want
