So as many others I played this game religiously for about 2-4 weeks.
During this time I reached max and played pvp non stop for maybe 3 days (god bless 2 hand warrior).

So I’d like to give this game another try, but I don’t know kitten about what has been added, changed or patched since launch.

So where should the guys that hasn’t played for ages get started?

Well a lot has changed in the last 10 months.

I would check out this blog for a look of whats to come: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/looking-ahead-guild-wars-2-in-2013/

Also you can look at this page to get an idea of the highlights of each patch since you’ve left: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/releases/

Currently the Bazaar of the four winds is happening. It is a temporary event so i’d check that out asap if you want in on the rewards and activities.

Not to mention there are now Daily and Monthly PvP exclusive achievements.

This looks promising!
How are they doing on the PvE front?

New living story releases every 2 weeks, upgraded rewards for meta events, Guild missions, new fractals soon, fractals in general depending on how long you’ve been gone.

there are also new types of content like right now there’s the Sanctum Sprint which is basically Mario Kart but GW2 style. Not perfect but I love it. there have also been some changes to the zone maps and additions of entirely new maps

WvW also has ranks now, which earn you points that you can spend on wvw warfare perks.

edit: Oh, and musical instruments. Which you’ll probably notice after not to long when running around.

So you played this game 4 weeks and 3 days and quit? This is fast man.
I guess you should be doing other things than playing MMO games. MMOs are not 10h movies, they are soap operas with hundreds of episodes.
