PvP, Expansion Formula, etc:

I'm surprised I haven't seen this two part interview anywhere, though if it's actually on the main forum or just somewhere I didn't see then my bad:

Part 1:

Part 2:

They talk about their plans for expansions and the reasoning behind them (no more standalone), why they're going B2P and some more information on PvP and plans for cash shop. Nothing earth shattering, but still some good info for those that haven't come across these interviews yet.

 

EDIT: actually I semi-take that back, the full player progression through PvP part may make some people quite happy.

Already read it and I'm not the least bit surprised that they are going for the standard expansion model, since that's how their most recent expansion (Eye of the North) was. And just like they said in the interview; it wouldn't segregate the community as much as standalone expansions do. Also going this route is better for them business-wise, because it ensure that even in a couple years they would still be making money of the original GW2.
