When I first started playing this game, frankly, I thought the Personal Story and the story of this game were terrible, and preached that this game did not have any lore. HOWEVER, I came to realize that I was wrong, this game had tons of lore, it was just hidden within the first game and it was hard to find. That is the problem, I had to go to the lands of the wikis to learn the connections of the story and the Living Story. That being said, this is with the assumption that many GW2 players did not play the original. So to help make future Living Stories make more sense, an easy way to access lore should be implemented. Some ideas could be a lore page on the website, but what would be really cool is a huge library in game with the history of Tyria in the Durmand Priory, Divinity’s Reach, The Order of Whispers, etc., just somewhere where it would belong.

meh I just tune into Woodenpotatoes youtube channel and get good 20-30min episodes on the lore with artwork each week.

His latest video on the reactor is so good. The problem is the depth of the story he is telling is not translating well in the game. They need to do some kind of long cutscene to fully explain the complexity of the story, if of course WP’s assumptions are correct, and if they are this is an amazing story. I’m off to watch it again.

Yeah that was one of the sources I was referring to,but I feel you shouldn’t have to go somewhere besides the game to actually understand what is going on and to be engaged. Also I never said I wanted it a specific way, those were just ideas, and in depth cut scenes would be cool too.

Thats just the thing though: More or less everything posted in his (or other peoples videos) that is actually fact rather than speculations ARE available in the game.
But the game won’t throw it in your face, you have to actually look for it. Just like in the real world.
