Yes…but it would not matter if it was Cantha based.

Any GW2 expansion I would buy, because I have played 2000+ hrs, so GW2 is great value for money.

I would like new character classes and a whole new clump of zones, not bothered about new races since racial skills are all rubbish.

The Luxons and Kurzick were cool, the jade sea was really cool, but the whole asian theme was a bit too asian-copycat as opposed to asian-inspired. It really broke immersion for me.

Plus, I’ll always remember Factions as having renamed skills that had the exact same functionality — SOOOO disappointing!

I would buy it but I would much rather see something we’ve never experienced before in either GW1 or GW2.

And then if we had to choose from areas that were in GW1 I’d rather Elona first than Cantha.

Factions had awful acting and a rather silly villain but it mixed up the game formula very well and had gorgeous, original environments and mobs.

It’s exactly what the game needs and would be well worth the money they charge.

I’d buy an expansion… whether Cantha or Elona.

Actually I’d like both in time, I’d love to see the Jade Sea in the new engine, and also at the same time I’d love to have some truly desertic enviroments and maybe dervishes…

It’s a pile of Elonian protection magic, mixed with a little monk training,
wrapped up in some crazy ritualist hoo-ha from Cantha.

Only if it reveals as a turning point in game development.

Like
-no more LS as only PvE content, more permanent and real content
-massive WvW improvements and support
-adding pvp (uh what you’re saying? Spvp? Just no.)
-features long promised and needed: build templates, guild halls, pts and so on
-a long term and decently written story

and so on.

If it’s just a “more of our great LS, esport pvp and that minigame called WvW” it’s a huge NOPE for me.

Most used: Guard/Mes/War/Nec/Ele.

Sorry to say but, until there is some new level 80 + content (new areas, races, professions, etc.) I’m done with Guild Wars 2, everything seems to have that “been there done that” flavor to it. Tired of the Living World farming events and don’t like changes to WvW, or the do it again crafting resets.

It’s been more than six months since I’ve given ANet any money, and I don’t expect to reverse that course while the Living Story model persists. I’m not enough of a power earner to up-convert Gold to Gems in sufficient quantity to snag a whole expansion either (if they even offer it like that).

I have a feeling most ppl would buy an expansion of any type if they put it out. As things stand they are giving us free expansion like content so i am not sure why ppl think paying money would make it more enjoyable. I guess ppl are fooled into the idea that money buys happiness? You realty got to question ppl ethics who think this way.

The LS is not giving players the kind of content they want…new zones, new character classes, new legendary weapons, new weapons with new skills, more skills etc…

A lot of the LS is 1 dungeon which is not so different from a lot of dungeons you done before or reworking world bosses which some like, some don’t, plus of course another list of achievement points to tick off…oh and another back piece…

The quality of each LS varies considerably, some are good, some are dire bug ridden versions of hell…

I agree! Why would anyone want to throw cash at a company when we can have rushed, drip fed content, padded with farming and press F one hundred times?
It boggles the mind!
Also, I can’t believe ANet had the audacity to make this a buy to play game. It should have been a pure free to play game because money doesn’t buy happiness. What a slap in the face!

Those who get overwhelmed are either disillusioned or are the casualist of casual players. Really. Dulfy puts out the guides the day the patches hit. If you’re really pressed for time, as in, you know you wouldn’t be able to finish it, Dulfy the stuff and you’ll have it in ~2 hours time, maybe 3 if you’re slow.

Had you asked this 3 months ago, I would have said yes, with no reservations.

I am not so sure any more. I keep looking at the globe that is displayed in a number of different parts of the “known world” and while I have some nostalgia for Factions and Nightfall, there are so many areas we have never seen.

I think I would rather see something totally new than go back to Cantha or Elona, but…if I were given one of those, I’d take it.

Well the first south sun gave us a new map the 2ed south sun gave us a world boss event. The last 3 LS give us one new world boss event and update to and old world boss event and a new path in a dungeon. Other then that the 2 events that gave no permanent content was F&F it was not tied to a once a year event and the trade winds i think it was called that was tied to the air blade’s.

If it makes sense to go there, sure. Right now we’re dealing with the elder dragons and the only way I see us going to Cantha is to get help in beating the rest. Other than that it doesn’t make sense and people want it because of nostalgia. I’d rather see the lands east of Tyria though.
