Guild Wars 2

Details of developing the Living Story and creating/writing the narrative within the Living Story and how it all ties in into future developments.

All this sounds so daunting and stressful.

Great read, thanks for sharing!
Looking forward to the greater stories coming along.

“Players will soon understand where these characters are headed, and how these seemingly disjointed events fit together and tie into the larger narrative.”

Oh god, I do hope so.

Glad you enjoyed the interview! I don’t get a chance to talk about work that often, so I’m happy you got something useful out of it.

Thanks for doing the interview. Its very reasuring to find out from time to time where the devs are at and that they have picked up on the feedback we are giving.

By the way, whoever wrote the Opening Cerimony dialog, particularly relating to Rox and Braham, did a brilliant job.

Even though I love the story and releases so far, I had my concerns and problems about it. What you said made quite a number of them just that – concerns. I´m glad you know where this is heading and that we will soon too see the bigger picture as you do.
Jus for the future though…it is a little too much time for us to see the bigger picture in more than half of a year later and not be sure where we are heading…
Nevertheless, it was a wonderfull ride (with some bumbs on the road, let´s be frank ) but I´m starting to feel the road becoming more perfect with every bit of story released. That being said…more stories, more lore (etc), please!
