Do you think you could change it so in the cinematic the commander who downs Scarlet is the player we are currently using? Rather than the heavy armored female Norn you placed in there. It makes it feel like our player character is not the Pact Commander. I know this isn’t a big deal really, but more of a QoL thing. Thanks!

What do you mean, it makes perfect sense. Its just some magitech tomfoolery.

You know, like those mirrors at amusement parks that make you fat or thin. Asurans got mirrors that make an old grumpy Asuran with the face of a raisin look like a voluptious female Norn.

So it was Councilor Phlunt killing Scarlet?

The trailer assumes your PC didn’t kill Scarlet. It was 3yrs ago. Many characters playing will not have witnessed the LS, therefore having their PC in the cinematic wouldn’t make sense.

Kitten.

No, the canon is that the Pact Commander (the PC) did kill Scarlet just as they helped killed Zhaitan and killed Mordremoth.

The fact that they show some random norn is probably due to technical limitations, or just the fact that it’s a pre-rendered cutscene.

Since the looooooooong term plan is to make LWS1 playable anyway, I think it would be a waste of time to somehow cheat your character into the cutscene.

Woa, I’m actually more hyped to play LWS1 some day rather than LWS3 final / EP2.

Yeah, I wouldn’t hold my breath there; I doubt it’s ever going to happen (apart from snippets of LS1 being reused in fractals).

I know it’s of total low priority. But even if it comes out as “recycled content” after GW2’s prominence has long faded and GW3 being the new star, I would play it. :P

No, he’s on fire.
