some thoughts on... you guessed it... gw2

So, I was talking to Mick the other day, and it looks like I was just making stuff up, or something.

There are 5 starter cities - one for each race. You only have access to your own city at first. Once you get to somewhere around level 30, all races meet at another city. "Lion's Arch" - it better not be a pain in the butt this time!! From there you travel north and into the lost city of Orr, and into the end game.

Once you get to Lion's Arch, you can travel through the other lands into the home cities of other races.

I guess the main thing this highlights is that if we want to play together, we will need to all be the same race. I'm not sure yet what I want to be, but I'm happy to have two characters going at once. I was thinking it might be cool to have us all have one type (say human) and then all have different types that we can join together later, so I might be asura, copland - charr, caine - norn and mick - rollerbeetle. roflcopter.

the new's / blog has been silent since releasing the hall of monuments info. i was hoping that there would have been another profession announced by now. Oh well, you'll hear from me when it happens. I'm guessing tomorrow, but who knows.

The good thing about hall of monuments rewards is that you can add them after gw2 comes out. So... in particular to mini pets... once you get more... you will still be rewarded for them.

Last thing...
Release date? I'm thinking just before the big school holidays in the states. Mind you... they seem to have put the breaks on... 7 weeks between prof announcements - if that continues... then... they wont have announced them all til April!! gee!! Then who knows...

anyways... that's a random rant...

Human sounds like an interesting idea bcause I think there won't be many other people who pick it...
