Guild Wars 2

I’m going to try and not spoil this living world story and at the same time express my concern so bear (bare? beir?) with me…

Possible spoilers, going to try and avoid as much as possible
So it seems that Scarlet’s interaction with Tyria has led to a MAJOR development for the main story of this game. This worries me. At first I thought the living world story would be a sort of side-mission like the Bonus Mission Packs in GW1 but now it seems like its the device from which ANet will link us to the next big thing.

How are late-comers going to find out about the next “big boss”? Will the Battle for LA and previous content be available for them in an instance/dungeon or will they just have to watch cut-scenes and Let’s Plays of previous Living Stories on YouTube? I would think that the next “big boss” would come in an expansion and would be re-playable like our personal stories. Any thoughts? ANet: any comments?

You can go into the wiki and read everything about it.

To replay every LS would be great but I fear that will be an unbearable amount of work for ANet.

I am very curious about the thing underneath, Scarlet was looking for…

I hope they’ll use Fractals of the Mists to replay or revisit some of the past (LS) events, I mean it would fit the lore.

@Nyel.1843… if you have paid ANY attention to the story of this game over the last two years — even a little — you already know.

They’ve also recently put out the Living Story Atlas(good in theory, really bad execution) that is kind of a “The Story So Far” detailing the events of past living story releases.. My concern is that there isn’t really at present an In-Game way to get players caught up…. This is important..

Suggestion – A Hall of Monuments style Scrying Pool that allows you to see scenes from previous living story events – people could get the information that way.

Omg a scrying pool would be excellent for this!
