They are simply addressing something that many players complained about (even back in GW1).

I guess it’s hard to find a good balance between giving too much and too little credit.

But well, in many ways it’s the same for the Personal Story, in some cases. Canonically, I doubt there are as many “heroes of Shaemoor” as there should be, looking at all the surrounding players. In fact, the title sounds more like the player was the only civilian getting involved.

I’ve always thought that this chest piece looked somewhat ridiculous (on any race, really).
I don’t mind sexy, or showing skin, but this just looks somewhat silly. Considering how open it is in the front, I also find it really weird that it seems almost glued to the body.

On a different note, if you want a warrior-esque look, how about the Sorrow’s Furnace chest piece? It almost looks like heavy armour.

And totally unrelated, but everytime I look at the picture you posted… I think your norn lady has a beard. The tattoo on her chin is almost the same colour as her hair, so it would fit, and I end up being somewhat confused everytime!

Pretty sure it’s still a fern hound, rather than a normal wolf. It fits in with the Husks, keeping Mordremoth’s minions as being similar-yet-different to Nightmare Court critters.

Fern hounds are made entirely from plants (just like sylvari), so it wouldn’t make sense for them to possess a bone skull.
Moreover, if you look at its legs, you can see that these are actually covered in fur, which to me suggests that it used to be a normal dog/canine animal.

Just to start teasing players, they should make a tengu one of the biconics, with slightly improved animations (maybe even the same animations as charr, like how human and sylvari share all but dancing – and then give him a unique dance), but the playable race… never… comes…

You should replace Scarlet as the new “evil mastermind”-villain!

Are Marjory and Kasmeer a gay couple?

There are many other gay couples in GW2 (the most prominent being, apart from Kas and Jory here, Caithe and Faolain).

Well, unless you play on the Chinese client, it seems.

What happens when you mix and match this set with other armour skins? Does your whole character turn blue or just the corresponding body part?

I think the aesthetic is interesting, but I can see why people would like to be able to turn the blue off (or colour it any way we like!)

So what's Scarlet breaching, exactly?

Since the end of Zhaitan hasn’t happened in the Living Story timeline it doesn’t know that a big cannon shot (or will shoot) Zhaitan’s tail off. Mordremoth probably doesn’t know what up-to-date technology can do to it, or it could be that a shot from the Ethercannon is like a morning coffee for it, helping it to get up faster.

Actually, we’ve had confirmation by now that the Living World happens after the Personal Story. But anyway, a sleeping Elder Dragon probably wouldn’t be aware of such a thing.

Well, about the whole “why does god need a starship” issue, other Elder Dragons also had Champions prepare their rise, in some cases we know for sure that they even were actively waking them up (Great Destroyer).

My issue with this idea is more that I just find it weird that Mordremoth would have a Champion which entirely relies on technology and similar things to wake him up. (Something like a Poison Ivy-esque champion would be more fitting. Like a sylvari who constantly gives off a miasma as potent as the Tower of Nightmares one.)

But well, if it’s Mordremoth now, this could be explained by the fact that they would then have completely overthrown their initial plans – in which case Scarlet being all about technology would just be a remnant of what they were originally going for (they had stated once that Elder Dragons won’t be a part of the 1st season. If they do play a role in it now, they definitely changed their plans at some point).
