    3. You can't wait to do the jumping puzzles and discover hidden areas
    4. You have seen the promise of DE chaining and meta events
    5. You would happily play almost any profession because they're so different
    6. You sometimes just stop and look around you in-game because it's so breathtaking
    7. Every other game you play pales in comparison
    8. You trust ANet because they've delivered, so far, on everything they promised
    9. You will never have to pay another subscription fee for no new content again
    10. And there is a pirate costume waiting for you?
    Of course the game isn't perfect, but when you know what's waiting for you, even if there may be kinks at launch, should you not be excited? And can expectations be overly-high if they're based on actual experience?

    forgot about crafting.. been watching the crafting videos more and there is a  LOT of stuff to do/make for crafting looks like a lot of fun 

    I angered the clerk in a clothing shop today. She asked me what size I was and I said actual, because I am not to scale. I like vending machines 'cause snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at a store, oftentimes, I will drop it... so that it achieves its maximum flavor potential. --Mitch Hedberg

    And this is why we can't have nice things.

    "Loading screens" are not "instances".
    Your personal efforts to troll any game will not, in fact, impact the success or failure of said game.

    A game will be good or bad regardless of how excited I am before launch.

    I haven't seen this much Hype (good Hype) for a game since WOW. Back then I didn't care aobut WOW just EQ2.

    Warhammer and Rift never got this much hype even though they were both pretty good games.

    im so blessed to have a pretty busy schedule today and tomorrow. keeps my mind off of the ludicrously out of proportion anticipation that keeps bouncing around my head.

    LFD tools are great for cramming people into content, but quality > quantity.
    I am, usually on the sandbox .. more "hardcore" side of things, but I also do just want to have fun. So lighten up already :)

    No expectations heres only intentions cause I know whats in store.  The only dilema I have is what do to with my time because so much of the game I want to do and see RIGHT AWAY which isnt possible.  So yea I have to check my passion for completion and let it guide me through this journey.  Thats gonna be the hard part.

    Hush little gamers and don't you cry

         GW2 is gonna make you smile

                If the GW2 is gonna fail

                       Blizzard is gonna keep up sales.

     

    I know, doesn't really work, but remember breath in, breath out.   Just like a previous poster said.  Go to your happy place when the excitement is too much.

    I self identify as a monkey.

    A MMO is like life. It is something to cherish and enjoy upon in it journey. So why race to the end of it. In life at the end you die.

    THANK YOU. Sincerely, I appreciate the rare realists that occassionaly show up in these forums. I consider myself a devout GW2 fan, but the Kool-Aid hasn't been powerful enough to alter my expectations of what will most likely come to pass. Without a doubt (on my part), it's gonna be a lot of fun, it's gonna have glitches, and the WvW servers are gonna be slammed for awhile, but hey...it's all good. There may be log-in problems, there may be crashes, and even my whole guild may not get on the same server, but 'tis life. Cheers, OP, for keepin' it real and have fun!

    Agreed.

    I'm glad someone appreciated the reference.  Well, at least I hope that's what happened.
