Guild Wars 2

So, one of my friends wants to get interested in Guild Wars 2. I showed him a few things from the game and he likes it, but what got him the most is the rewards for owning a HoM in GW:EN. He told me he wants to buy and play GW1 series so he can get the rewards and learn the Lore of the game first hand, however, there is a issue.

See, this is the first time my friend is getting interested in GW1 and GW2, he has no accounts with either game yet. And I am sure during GW2 development, ArenaNet stated accounts made after GW2’s release date will not be able to accumulate points for rewards in GW2.

Now, here is the question: Is this true? Can accounts for GW1 or GW2 not earn any points to HoM rewards, if they where made after 8/28/2012? Or did ArenaNet change this? Honestly, I hope they did. Because it may make or break my friends choice on playing this amazing game.

Feedback would be awesome!

Nope, this sin’t true, and Anet never said that. Before there was an official statement, people where saying this would be the case and thats why this myth exist.
