3 days of this? ArenaNet really needs to tighten up their schedule, because damn if I'm not close to the point of not caring about their new announcements. This whole slow drip to drag everything out as long as possible is silly : /

30% of the content in those streams is spent on game shows and cooking shows.

Agreed, and Anet's attempt to make their reveals look big (By streaming over the period of a few days) falls flat when you look at how much is actually being revealed over the livestreams. Yes, it is silly.

I hope they aren't going to reveal the new guild stuff in the order listed; common sense says you save the best for last. You don't start off a stream showing off the fancy new guild headquarters and then go on to talk about a boring guild UI overhaul in comparison.

Just a reminder, today's twitch stream begins a little over an hour from this post

guild halls sound cute. Too bad it will most likely suck people out of the 'outer world' but at least it won't be as isolated as the Garrisons in WoW.

Wow. I'm so used to half-assing guild missions at this point that those seem like a lot to take in. Fun but damn.

I think guild halls will only pull people from open world until they actually have their guild halls built. You're right that don't seem nearly as bad as garrisons, at least there is a social aspect to them.

Dulfy with day two live-stream notes...

Lost Precipice Guild Hall is spectacular. Hopefully my main guild chooses that one (and I'm guessing they will).

Here's GW2 Guild Week Day Three Livestream Notes from Dulfy.

Those scribe backpacks looks pretty good (the first three I like a lot).



The guild arenas look like they'll be fun. Too bad it will take on average two months for that to be unlocked by a guild.

Having a medicine cabinet or typewriter strapped to one's back as an 'adventurer' seems kinda stupid to me.

These designs. Goodness gracious.

[Usagi Senshi]

Yeah, only the third one on top right looks decent IMO and more realistic.

hipsters rejoice

Oh my god i will be able to create my guildmarm from monhun4!
The guild mission system requiring wvw stuff is kinda shitty imo, i play in attuned, a pretty well known pve guild, sadly we are all from different servers :/, and i dont have that many people to do raiding with considering that most people i dungeoneer with tend to play on DnT

I doubt I'd use any of them, but the only ones that really seem dumb to me are typewriter (printing press?) and clipboards.

1 or 3 is probably about it, and if you have 3 unlocked I can't see using 1.

I love the ridiculous backpacks. Immersion breaking means nothing to me as long as its in small doses, I like to see the out there looks that people come up with. I remember when the Zephyte Rucksack was "meta" (fashion trend) in WvW. 20v20 GvG matches where everyone had those huge things strapped to their backs...

Tell us how you feel about the final cooking backpack :P
