I really enjoyed the beta and thought Verdant Brink was a really cool zone. I think what I liked most from the beta was that your character actually acted like a commander in the story. Hearing your character shouting orders and reply to NPCs during events was awesome! I like how the daytime events were chained together and had a good pace. There wasn’t long waits for the next events to start up which was a good improvement from the current game. The main think that I think should get fixed is the night events. Compared to the day events they felt slower and I never saw the defense spots make any progress. I assume that maybe there weren’t enough people in the beta that could have made it progressive. Overall I am super hyped for the expansion and is impressed with what I saw. Good job Arenanet!
