Q:

Hello, I am stargazer and I am interested in a few things related to the future of Guild Wars 2. My first interest is finding out weather or not the Developers will be giving Guild Wars 2 as much attention as some of its other games, I am thinking specifically of Aion.

Next, I would like to know weather or not the devs are going to expand on Tyrias map. With a large portion of Tyria in Guild Wars 2 unexplorable for example Blazeridge Mountains, Blood Legion Homelands, Far Shiverpeaks, Woodland Cascades, Isles of Janthir, Janthir bay, Maguuma Wastes, Magus Falls, Ring of Fire, a large portion of Ruins of Orr, Scavangers Causeway, Crystal Dessert and Deldrimor Front, would it be logical to assume that these areas will become explorable. Note that i am not asking for a direct or certain answer only asking if it is logical to assume.

Lastly, I would like to know if it would be logical to assume that the other continents (Cantha and Elona) from the original Guild Wars will become available. Note again that i am not asking for a direct or certain answer.

My guess is that the devs will indeed expand into all of those areas eventually this year, with Cantha and Elona to be particularly large expansions.

I am pretty sure the only other game the developers (ArenaNet) have worked on is Guild Wars (1) in all its campaigns and one expansion
Aion had different developers

as for expanding the map, since those areas are named, I am guessing (if Guild Wars 2 remains viable) that we will see those areas some day

lorewise, it makes sense that we might eventually visit Cantha and Elona, but anyone’s (save the developers’) guess is as good as mine =)

I also hope they’ll expand into (at least some) of these areas eventually. The artdesign of Gw2 is beautiful and I can’t wait to see what else the developers can come up with.
I highly doubt they’ll expand into all of these areas in 2013 though…

I imagine the unexplored areas are there specifically for expansions and/or content patches. At this point though, we can only speculate.

I don’t see why they wouldn’t do any of those. Most of those have been mentioned as something the devs are interested in doing.

I think they’re definitely intending to add Cantha and Elona at some point. During the promotion for this game they put a lot of detail into the lore of what’s happened to those continents since GW1, and Cantha even had a GW:Beyond update with a bunch of new content to tie into that.

I don’t think they would have done that if they weren’t planning to add them to the game at some point, they would have just said Tyria (the continent) lost contact and left it at that.
