Q:

So I was curios, will there ever be a time in gw2, where we see multiple living story’s playing out? Perhaps there is one zone, where the core of the current living story is focused, but then there are many peripheral stories playing on throughout the world. That could be pretty cool. And also, will we start to see zones evolve more, the way Orr does, in the future? Im sure you guys have noticed the haggard nature of the Orr mobs over the months. I think if they could do that with southsun cove as well, and maybe use it to slowly quiet the unrealistic fury consuming the wildlife there, it would be a nice touch to see as well. Perhaps people would actually feel comfortable stepping into the zone without getting zerged by enraged karka.

Many of the Living Stories bleed into each other, some more than others.

The Super Adventure Box ran along side the Flame & Frost section.

The Secretes of Southsun was more low key, in only playing with parts of the remaining from Flame and Frost (i.e. the sad plight of the refugees).

Dragon Bash was far better bleed in with Sky Pirates, simply because an event within that Living Story sparked the other Living Story and they finished side-by-side.

Here with the Bazaar of the Four Winds, it’ll remain through the Cutthroat Politics. We know this because the candidates will be at the Zyphrym Sanctum; and so will the ballot boxes too.

As for Southsun, there’s going to be the upcoming Southsun Survival mini-game added to GW2. I’m sure that will bring much traffic to the island, seeing as how the nostalgic nature of it (being a complete recreation of Hunger Royal from the beta days).

I’ve always thought so. There are so many things they could expand on with Living Stories that are touched on through the open world or personal story. They could do two or three at a time with a longer stagger between different ones or differing styles of story. Ones with a bit of fluff like the Bazaar running alongside tougher, grittier stories involving the Nightmare Court for example and opening up large maps. And definitely something involving the evolution of Orr I’d say. I’m excited by what they could do with this.

I’m keeping the excitement levels under control though, just in case

Fire up the Hyperbowl ma, we’re going to town!

Would you like some hard cheeze with your sad whine?

Siphaed yur on my friends list lol didnt even realize that. The sky pirates and dragon bash was good, but what I mean is more along the lines of 1 main and 2-3 subliving stories playing out. Seeing other factions get involved in their own zones. It will be nice to get back to southsun cove though, kinda, that zone is pretty dead right now I was just there today. Me and my friend and like 2 others. I cant wait into any camp besides pearl islet. I think southsun should continually progress with each update, perhaps with small events occuring there, or even a mission or two added.
