I just wanted to provide an update since it’s been a while.

• We are currently working to restore the Greatest Fear storyline to the live game. I can’t provide a release date at this point.
• In addition to restoring the Personal Story steps to their original order we’re making some minor improvements where possible (e.g. recording new VO or updating certain conversations, etc.).

We’ll provide additional details closer to release. Thanks much for your patience.

That’s all well and good. Nice to know you are getting down to fixing it. Now, that just leaves the issue on characters who have been through the botched PS. Will you by some chance, make it replayable like you did with the Living Story? Because if I have to grind my charr character just to see the fixed version, that’s just bullcrap. :/

The Personal Story was never designed to be replayable on a single character, so making a change like that would involve a lot of revision (updating and testing hundreds of story steps). It’s simply out of scope.

The updated story steps will start with A Light in the Darkness.

So does this mean that anyone who have completed up to the “light in the darkness” is stuck on the botched personal storyline? Or can we still experience the content we paid for even if we have completed the “light in the darkness” mission as it stands now and nothing else?

My character has completed all the way to “forging the pact”, before I put the story on hold till it gets fixed. Would the new changes be unavailable for all of my characters? Not trying to be mean or snarky but I’m really digging my characters ps and it kills me that a significant chunk of it is denied to them.

This is so frustrating… I’m a new player, (decided to get gw2 on friends behest and hots announcement). So I go through the personal story, enjoying it immensely (managed to tickle my inner lore nerd) all the way up to fort trinity battle. Now suddenly I’m having an orb that I’ve never seen nor heard of before being shoved in my face. No preface, no context just here’s an orb that can foil zhaitan’s plans, and here’s an unending undead army, have at it. I Immediately alt+f4 and googled the issue and apparently the ps has been gutted. In addition to being spoiled for what seems like a really intriguing and important part of the story, it also seems I’m locked out of this content because I didn’t halt my personal story before “forging the pact” mission (which I’ve completed fully, my character is also lvl 80). Is this how it’s actually going to pan out for my favorite character? Their personal story is borked beyond recovery? Please tell me it ain’t so.

Edit: It also seems the cinematic at the end of the fort trinity battle is bugged, there’s no dialogue, no sound effects just a mellow ambient theme running on loop, seems a bit weird to not be a bug.
