This latest trailer for Guild Wars 2 explores the world of Tyria through the eyes of the five playable races in the game: the resilient Humans, the war-mongering Charr, the inventors known as the Asura, the shapeshifting Norn, and an entirely new nature spirit race, the Sylvari.

Watch the trailer here.

Check out the internal NCSoft Q&A giving more information about the video, here.

    Felicia Day as a voice in MMORPG trailer, I can imagine she like it :D Hope she will be also in full game.

    Also great trailer, only bad thing is that release is soooooo faaaaar away :(

    That was cool.

    Hopefully this game will be as good as the first. GW1 was near flawless.

    oh i dont know...i love the GW franchise, always will, but if the game isn't out for a while, that means i can go off and explore All Points Bulletin, DCU Online (possibly free..! we'll see), Word of Darkness Online, The Secret World, with out feeling guilty....as much as i love sharpening my pixelated sword and buckling my pixelated swash, i've been looking for a non-fantasy game i can afford...i can see my getting GW2 at some point regardless, even if it isn't at launch...ive had nothing but good experiences with GW and its community so Viva La Tyria! Cheers all!

    Every character is now set to a certain lvl and get's every equipment pvp item etc. and skills avaible said in one of the Interviews.

    "Logan Thackeray the human defender is voiced by Troy Baker (Fullmetal Alchemist, One Piece)." One Piece! Woot!

     

    I watched the trailer and was surprised at how great the voice acting is. Looks great too! Can't wait to play it!

    gorgeous trailer, I have been out of Guildwars for 2 years now, but what I just saw pretty much guarantee Ill buy GW2.

  • Banhammer16Banhammer16 Member Posts: 75

     I am kind of losing my hype over this game. Heard about it from a few friends and played GW1 with them, but the two trailers that have been pretty dissapointing IMO. Just doesn't give me that spark. Probably different for many of you but thats just how i feel.

    Yea... that's really just you. At least your not one of those people that everytime GW2 gets on the most anticipated list on the main page a bunch of people create alt accounts just to vote it down.  MMORPG.com really needs to fix the way hype is determined.

    I love it, looks amazing! The graphics are stunning, the dynamics of the lighting is really good.  I would have liked to have seen some more of the day night cycle, but I hear we will be seeing that in 2010.  As for release time NCSoft earning reports ear mark that only Blade and Soul will be released in 2010, so this is looking like a 2011 release :( I have chosen Sylvari as my race, probably Warrior (which they have hinted will still be a class) or something similar.  I am very excited about this.  I think I may also have to build a Norn at some point.  I really like their culture.

    Great trailer and demonstrates the uber storytelling we saw in GW1.

    Yep, 2011 release sounds most likely at this point. :-( Which makes this trailer a big tease. Ah well. Will give some of us time to save up the money for a new computer...

    Too bad 2011 is soooooooooooooo far away.  I want it now!

  • HeadBytorHeadBytor Member UncommonPosts: 93

    great trailer! that underwater shot was cool. exploring underwater is one of the big new features im really excited to see

  • jondifooljondifool Member UncommonPosts: 1,143

    Again a beatyfull trailer.

    What the characters actual says and the style they do it in, is a little disapointing, especially for a fan like me that knows Guild Wars 1 well. Its like it needs some more polishing/tuning to get to me.

    but with that said, it might do the job for people not knowing the game at all. But no matter how, the astonishgly beautyfull artwork will get to people no matter what!

    I am looking so forward to this game

    Still a little asian'e style wise, poses, animations I have seen a million times in the other countless asian MMO's but I played original GW for a few months years ago and saw some potential (honestly the inability to jump and swim killed it for me) so I'll check it out when released.
