Guild Wars 2

I think we’ll find Malyck’s tree, and it will consist of Sylvari minions of Mordremoth. Malyck went to find his tree…and didn’t like what he found, and now we have to rescue him.

and we’ll discover that the playable Sylvari were meant to be his Minions, but their tree was altered by Ventari’s Tablet.

I predict we will revisit the White Mantle in some capacity or another, and that we will discover that the entity was not Mordremoth. Oh, and also that we’ll get confirmation that the Nightmare Court are Mordremoth’s minions. I’m also going to go out on a limb and predict we’ll discover the fate of Glint’s baby.

I predict that we won’t see Malyck’s tree, that we won’t face down the entity, and that a connection will be shown between Mordremoth and the sylvari race on the whole, but will be ambiguous enough, or have enough holes in it, to leave doubt on the matter.

I predict that we’ll get….

wait for it…

waaaaiiit for iiit….

Wait, what?

I predict we will get new items in the gem store, new ways to spend money in the gemstore, and more of bi-conics. Also, some of the zephirites, used as exposition to the plot.

Those are the things I can safely bet on, anything else is in the air.

If my first paragraph seemed negative for you, know that it wasn’t meant to, those are simply certainties, not naysayings.

I personally also hope that the story we will get will be engaging and well thought off, but I am holding my guard up, due to S1 dealing a huge blow to my belief in ANet writing team’s potential. Bu I hope for the best!

Hopefully. Maybe we’ll finally get some good writing, if somewhat predictable.

Trahearne dies. (or so you think)
Divinity’s Reach gets attacked by some random group.
Scarlet returns from the wtfbbq plane and becomes Caithe 2.0.
Braham and Rox have yo-yoing relationship issues.
<Insert Plant Dragon Champ> reveals himself. (becuz we already had a she-villain)
<Insert Plant Dragon Champ> wakes/summons/somethings plant dragon.
<Insert Plant Dragon Champ> gets killed by DE 2.0.
<Insert Plant Dragon Champ> and plant dragon mini appears in gem store.

The great devourer (it’s mentioned somewhere), Sybitha and hopefully some more informations about the creators of the world/mists/parallel dimensions.

I called the Inquest involvement months ago:

“When the cyclopian golem servents of Mordremoth come stomping out of the jungle, I’m going to say ‘told you.’”

So… … Told you so!

That’s not Inquest. That’s asuran golem corrupted by Mordremoth that you called. :P

Besides, calling that one of the three biggest Maguuma Jungle threats, who also happens to be a Tyria-wide threat, will be active in the Maguuma is… Like say ing Seraph will be involved in Kryta stuff. Kind of dead-brained obvious, y’know?

Now, a major plot device is another thing… Which we haven’t seen.

I’ll probably concede that the other tree might be minions of Mordy, although I’m still a bit disliking of the Sylvari=Dragon minions, if only because I like being argumentative.

Even a broken clock … (assuming it’s not digital of course)… :P

Isn’t it more likely that the Inquest want to find out how to harness dragon magic in the way that the Zephyrites have done? Considering they’ve failed to do so on multiple occasions?
This is just my theory; the Inquest want to capture the Master of Peace (because who else will have major information on the crystals other than him) and the crystals themselves to make a better functioning reactor that doesn’t malfunction and explode.
Or
It could just be Thieves in Fort Vandal shooting down what they see as an easy target.

The Sanctum doesn’t seem to have been shot down. All the explosions were inside the ship, which suggests either sabotage or a catastrophic and highly unlikely accident.

The Zephyrites mention that they have caused probably too much attention this time. They were sneaky the whole time, so who are they hiding from?

Actually I was joking about the Inquest working with Mordremoth because I thought it was an outlandish idea. I’ll still be surprised if they turn out to be working together.

On the other hand, ANet come up with some strange ideas, so who knows.

Browsing through some of the released previews for the coming release you can find a big spoiler for what happens in the first episode. It’s from sources that legitimately obtained that information so I figure it’s OK to post here. Do not read if you don’t want to be spoiled to big plot details.

More likely than them “working together” (due to the whole nature of how dragon minions kill anything not part of their hive mind), it’s more likely that the Inquest have set up/are setting up a western base for studying Mordremoth’s corruption (like they do with every other dragon corruption site thus far, though interestingly not with Icebrood).

@Shiren: Oh, yay. ArenaNet’s still massively spoilerific with their achievement descriptions.
