Like many, I have my own concerns and excitement about GW2:PoF, some that go quite deep in yet confirmed detail.
Some of the concerns I have are:
• Mounts on masteries
• Mounts in cities
• Voice overs
• Guild halls
• The name

Mounts on masteries:
I am already not a big fan on masteries, Anet loves them but it is not shared by quite a large audience.
I wonder, they said that mounts are attached on masteries, what they did not say but did kind of hinted is that you need to level your mastery to unlock the other mounts.
This is a buzz killer, I rather have the masteries per mount so we can level each individual mount with powers.

Mounts in cities:
IMO having mounts in the cities is a horrible idea, before they even think of releasing PoF they should add a mount lock on the cities.
I love mounts, however, I really don’t see the need for mounts in cities when it’s hard enough to even find popular NPC’s without mounts.

Voice over:
Since PoF they released African themed faces and hair for humans, however, the voice over is still exactly the same.
IMO if they want to release something that different they should also put some more effort in it, ether have a choice of default and African voice or attach the voice to the faces made for it.

Guild halls:
For now the only ppl who can get a guild hall are ether ppl with a big guild or ppl with others to help them, a deal breaker for one-man guilds.
If they really want equality they could at least add a small guild hall, one that you don’t have to fight for, something like a house you buy.

The name:
No really, there are so many names this expansion could have and all they come up with is path of fire?
Not really something that lures me in, “war of elona” or “Balthazar’s wrath” would’ve at least made sense but this?

There are some other concerns but for now this is it, I might come back with more.

1. I don’t really understand what do you mean.
2. When you press “F” or whatever your interact button is, you don’t interact with other PC’s – you interact with the NPC. I am against mounts in cities, but even if it’s possible to hide the vendor (bank, TP, etc.) with your mount, just going close to the NPC and pressing “F” will do the job.
3. I agree, just for the sake of immersion… But, a large percentage of the playerbase is non-natural English speaker. So, you propose either listening to an obscure africaan english accent, or putting the effort to do an africaan accent to all supported languages, which is part fiction, part too expensive.
4. This game was never meant to have 1 man guilds. And imo is far, FAR better if you are a part of a good, friendly guild (and there are no shortage of these).
5. I don’t see any problem here.
