We have seen some future stuff like Revenant, Masteries, New Areas, Strongholds etc.
One other thing mr Colin Johanson mentioned in an interview, is the lack of real challenging PvE Group Content, which (according to him) is noticed both by ANet and players feedback. He also said HoT will address (at last) this problem, but he didn’t give any more info.
So do we know anything about? It will be Instanced or Open World content? It will be more like Raids or more sophisticated Open World Boss fights?
Any thoughts?

We did get some info. The wyvern encounter was talked about, demo’ed etc. to highlight this. They’re creating more interesting and sophisticated open world group content. Not content which just requires everyone to pile on top of a champ and hit every ability as it comes off cooldown.

I didn’t watch all of the most recent demo vids so can’t say for sure but I don’t think they’ve explicitly mentioned instanced content yet and what HoT may have in that department.

More info will come as the expansion gets closer im sure. There are a few things still left to discuss for example specializations and guild halls.

Well w/e anet comes up with ill be happy to see sadly coming from a wow player base from vanilla I never cared about lore at all in mmo’s only about gear and gold, but after seeing even the start of the demo I the lore has actually got me interested for the first time in any game.

Well, this has to do nothing with lore, gear, gold, rewards etc. Its about group content and how/what they will change, so it will be challenging.

I don’t trust their sense of challenge since Guild Wars Beyond, an army of overpowered mobs doesn’t equal challenge .
