Not sure if it has been posted before. Those who hate instances and fast travels look away now. lol
Who else thinks that GW2 cities are actually going to be the social hubs players have always wanted and not just empty huge space to run around or just a stop where players gather around AH.
Who could have thought that WOW could bring super power like USA to its knees?

Im picking on WoW btw because its the beast that made all of this possible

Well i hope its going to be a great roleplay place, but i don't think people will gather round the cities due to all the events and the pvp... okay i do think so just kidding xD i think that the city will be a huge social place! not just for roleplayers but for other player too, but i can't judge since the game isn't out yet, but i think so. <(-^.¨-)>
Count me in with that thought
We know that each major city will have it's own set of 'activities/mini games' that will encourage us to hang around.
I'm looking forward to seeing the other cities especially the Charr.
I am looking forward to seeing lion's arch.
This is not a game.
Thanks for the vid OP, the dev ideas are interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing "The Groove" (sic) personally
Mini-games (bar-brawl) sounds right down my street. I'm guessing if cities actually have an individual place/home for players then they might actually work as "cities"? Dunno, but I'm keen to hear more of the VOs from the audio sample on the ArenaNet blog page.

Wait wait wait - wasnt that a sylvari at the start of this video xD?
I thought they decided to not to show them untill they redid their artwork
?
That's the old sylvari. Too bad they are changing them, i like the curent version.
Been posted in numerous threads.
This is what a city should look like instead of the sorry excuse you see in RIFT.
City will be social hubs many due to the living breathing set up ArenaNet are doing,each race having it's own city is the best thing any MMO can do.
The fact that the only instance in your home city is actually your story area where you grow up but even that can be shared with a group ir another player.
First of all this is topic about GW2 so i would suggest not to troll here with what you dislike about RIFT. i don't want my thread to off topic. Moreover what you call cities in Rift are more like strongholds. No one even knows what and how the capital cities in Rift will look like.
If i want to discuss Rift i will go on Rift forums.

Lol, trolling,where did you get that from. If i want to make a comment about GW2 cities and how they differ from RIFT then i will.
Call it what you want but it goes to show how different dev teams have different ideas on just what a cities is meant to be.
Shame other dev teams can't see what ArenaNet can see.
Perhaps the RIFT devs should actually call there cities strongholds instead of labelling them cities.
But hey,the VId is old news so i guess you are surprised.
Looks promising, hopefully they'll have incentives for players not to rely entirely on the waypoint system as well.
The world of MMORPG's will never be the same when GW2 come out !!! So many great ideas in one game!
On top of that everything is so polished and smooth...Before that game all the RIFTs and TERAs looks so average....
Be careful the OP does not want you to mention any other game in this thread, you will be accused of trolling lol.
Well Sylvari will get complete redisgn (as they should imo, so forget what u saw in this vid ) Norn and Asura will get just little tweaks.
lol para, he wasnt trolling. he was complimenting GW2
he was praising the game not bashing it.
