I have a feeling that there will be a long time waiting for waiting this content. Maybe after all the dragons are slain when they will be revisiting the orginal Tyria maps. But hopefully sooner.
Exactly. If they ever decided to let us in (which I don’t think will happen because sometimes things will always be kept a mystery on purpose), odds are they would have a tough time making it match our expectations.
They mentioned it during the LA preview stream, but didn’t want to spoil anything. Assuming they didn’t bring it up for no reason other than it being unknown, perhaps it’ll make an appearance soon.
That’s the thing. After all these years, could anything they implement match the imagination and expectations of the playerbase?
^This. I’ve wanted in that place since I killed Galrath. About 10 years ago. I’ve imagined all sorts for this place. Part of me never wants to see the inside, but part of me “Just wants to know already!”
I’m on the fence as to whether content should ever exist for the tower. I like the fact it has an air of mystery about it and has done since GW1
This is the stance I’d normally take, but I’d be less bothered by that at this point since they’ve already explained too much about what’s currently going on there, so it’s less interesting than it was in GW1 anyway.
Gone for good after Halloween 2Ø12.
A shame fun things could not simply be fun.

They have? Where? I just checked the wiki and there was almost nothing there.
you know, it might be cool to explore the wizard’s tower in a fractal. Or maybe when GW2 is near the end of its life cycle, a kind of last hurrah kinda thing.
Quote is from me about a livestream that addressed my questions about the wizard’s tower. They totally shot down using it ever. Super disappointing.
“John Stumme kind of addressed this stuff in the livestream today and I wholeheartedly disagree with what he said. The best content is the content designed around the interesting stuff in the game. For example, I like Scarlet but she came out of nowhere with zero context in the lore. I understand building content around new characters, but it will get to the point that people that care about lore will stop paying attention to it in this game because none of the stories ever get completed.
No one wants to read half finished books. Likewise, I don’t want to play a game where I can get invested in characters only to have the story end at the climax. You need denouement and resolution for it to be complete. I am specifically referring to Livia here.
Please don’t start stuff you aren’t going to finish. Heck, you guys started the Wizard’s Tower and never even told the tale and then moved it here to GW2 and it just sits there in a lonely corner of one of the least played maps in the game. It would be great if you guys finished the tales you started. That’s the payoff. That’s the “lore loot”. The way a lot of this stands now, it’s like you sent me on a lore quest, the quest was buggy and there is no reward in the form of an ending.”
