Guild Wars 2

Can we have another one instead? This one is just the worst.
Thank you.

It’s based on the Haka. A traditional Maori warrior dance before a battle.

No, it’s the best. Thank you.

They should include it somehow into the charr culture, maybe some cut-scene before a big huge major battle or something.

A more modern example the haka before a “big huge major battle”… anyone who follows NZ rugby will know what I mean

Hmm let me guess, was it.. New Zealand vs France, or New Zealand vs Australia… [clicks] France New Zealand the only country to have won it 3 times, and also the only country to win back to back wins.

Oh and the first country to successfully defend the America’s Cup in 2000 having won it in 1995, yeah that little country at the bottom of the planet, with only 4.7 million people.

That does make it incredibly appropriate for the Charr.

Why not? They are a strong/warring race with their war “legions” (tribes) and culture being all about fighting and being strong.

Perfectly suitable I would think. Now if we were speaking about the Norn and their dance………maybe, just maybe you would have a point lol….

Omg, Norn dance is the worst. It’s a complete embarrassment. Good to know what inspired the Charr dance though. When I first saw it, I couldn’t figure out what they were doing. Just seemed, awkward, whatever it was. I would love to see the races get alternate dance moves.

Yes, my two statements in the quote are not connected. XD

Charr dance = Appropriate and tangential learning.

Norn dance = Embarrassing and immersion-breaking nod to 1990s television.
I really wish I could change it to some other dance. :\

Oh my bad I read your post wrong and didn’t even see the Norn comment in it!
