Why it shouldn’t be time travel? It is, if you take theory of parallel universes as granted. But there are other ways to describe what could happen if you’d travel in time. I think you can time travel in Mists(and that is basically everything) and even be stuck in time loop or something, like we see with Dessa.
If you want the proof, look for Asura personal story, it’s the Infinity Ball option I think. You encounter there with characters from the future, and (thus) from parallel world.
Plus, how did humanity lose so much of their technology and knowledge in the move from Earth and Tyria?
I don’t mean to support this theory, but if you put Earth and Tyria in the same time, even in that way, we were in ancient era when humans would come to Tyria.
But as I sai, I don’t think it’s the case, since lie you said, gods also came from world humans did.
Yeah. I’m trying to think about when these were made. In the last 300 years, I think. I didn’t play GW1, but I don’t think these were visible in that era. After the giant tidal wave 100 years ago, there likely haven’t been any settlers other than the Hylek. The area is just too inhospitable. So if these aren’t Hylek creations from the last 100 years, then they were likely created 100-300 years ago. Again, that is granted they weren’t already there in GW1.
Unfortunately, I just don’t think there’s much known about that time interval.
If it wasn’t in GW1, then I suppose it’s the same thing as with the giant stumps. It happened before and after we could have seen it.
But in their little mini-dungeon in Dengatl Grounds, they have a carved face facing inward. So it seems odd to think that the faces were carved by someone else when they are at the heart of this Hylek cave/village.
Then they just built the village around that face. It is only one of the five that is/was reachable for them.
Awesome info, Psynch! *feels emberassed*
You have some valid points. But I don’t think that hylek could carve those faces. It just doesn’t seem to fit them. The look, style, size and placement of those faces IMO are not a hylek thing.
I think they could do some kind of Journal similar to the personal when. There would be summary of Living story and a button for replaying instances. It’s shouldn’t be too hard to implement since all the content is still in game.
so I don’t know if this is right but here is what I found: itla means something and then I assumed that -col usually means my, their, and so on. So I guessItlaocol means Someone’s or rather Something’s, which sounds a bit odd. It may give out some information.
EDIT: Basically I think that hylek named it Itlaocol as something similar to “Something” or “Something that belongs to someone unknown”.
I get it, but still…The stumps may have been just for enviromental design, but the faces…I really think there’s something behind it. And hylek may worship them a little bit.
Uhm, could this perhaps be what was talked about during one of the asura personal stories?
In one of the asura personal stories you meet yourself from the future, and your future self says something about a great battle at Divinity’s Reach.
I think so, since all this Scarlet thing made me suspicious about this. So if there is connection, it is very probably that it will be Scarlet/Aetherblade/etc. But I don’t understand why would Scarlet or someone or even Kralkatorrik himself want to attack DR. (I think it may be possible that he can send his minions like this, heck they fall from sky in crystals! But this would be too long-ranged. And if not, why wouldn’the(?) just send them directly in DR? Which brings me to another question-if it’s Scarlet’s doing and she’s using portals, why wouldn’t se just open those portals directly in the city?)
So I was wandering Caledon Forest the other day and it was the first time I really noticed size of all those things. I marked the dead trunks with pink circles on the map. Some are smaller, some are enormous. Some became home to sylvari. I wonder where did they come from, since I don’t know about any trees that would be that big in that area and/or in the lore.
Then there are those strange rock faces. I found five of them and marked with green. Four are visible from outside and one is in the hidden cave where you can get the explorer achievment.
I wonder if it’s all connected. It probably is, since there is Wychmire Swamp and strange dark energies, and we have Twilight Arbor here.
Any information on any of these?
This is so interesting! I wish I ‘d have one character in Vigil.
It’s weird though. Why is Vigil planning a strategy for Branded invasion? Why Branded? And why at DR? Very weird, I wanna know more.
I’d give at least year and half on each dragon…And something else between them. Otherwise, soon they will be gone, and story will be less and less interesting.
There’s no reason for people that enjoy content to complain about it on forums. Making new threads just to say you like content isn’t gonna improve the game. So that’s why we see only hate on Scarlet. And I like her too
I opened 2,5k of them to finally get Wings of Dwayna recipe. In the excitement, I learned it on character that has tailoring on lvl 23. I intended to learn it on other character with tailoring 430. I’m kinda angry right now, because I spent much money on getting it and now I have to level another tailor and spend more money. Arrrghh. I basically ragequit the game.
If recipes are account bound, learned version of them should be too. It was just like a misclick.
Opinion can’t be wrong, that’s why it’s opininon.
But I reacted completely the opposite way you did. The post made me kinda happy. I really don’t mind the pause, and I trust ANet that they will really work on those four releases. I never hated Scarlet, I just wanted to know what was behind her. And I hope it will be answered.
What is going to be after Scarlet’s done? I don’t know why, but I just know it’ll be great. And if it won’t be, then I will say for the first time, that ANet failed. For me, 2013 was learning year for them and I believe that they have learned.
1) It seems Scarlet is tied to elder dragons.
2) I think that Scarlet in general is here because devs want to find a way how to tell story the best and having a new character and trying that on it is better than possibly ruining established lore.
3) I hope and think it will get better and I guess we’ll get something big in first quarter of 2014.
Basic mechanics and all that have been added to game since its launch and I think it kinda ends with adding ascended armor now. From that point, I think the focus on the meaty things will be greater.
