Guild Wars 2

I watched a video a while back where I believe Colin confirmed that at some point there will be new playable races (I would link the video but I can’t remember where I watched it).

Does anyone have an idea as to when we might get a new playable race or races? 6 months from now? A year from now? 2 years?

My fingers are crossed for the Tengu.

There’s been no word on when we’ll get a new race (or even confirmation that we will), but it’s probably a safe bet to assume it won’t happen before 2014.

He said they’re more likely to release a new race than a new profession.

He never said they were planning on doing either soon.

Or ever. I believe Anet thinks that their Living Story is enough to satisfy us for eternity.

Although it would never work, Quaggans please. Mainly just to see them in armor <3

Also to wield greatswords.

I would like both new races and new professions
Race I am not so bothered with because I could probably make endless Sylvari’s but there are only so many professions I enjoy playing
Too bad no ETA on either

If you drink a potion that turns you into a Kodan, you can jump, dance and do several other animations/emotes that no other creature can do other than the playable races.

Dont know if this means they are next in line to be played, or (my opinion) they was going to be one of the original but Norn took their place. They have a lot in common and the dance emote is the same.

Personally I want Skritt, I made a suggestion post a while back where you play as 3 skritt grouped together because they are smarter in groups. Also each skritt would wearing different pieces of armor to represent that they just put on what they found seeing as they are scavengers. It was very lore focused.
But playing as a single skritt would be great too.
