    The thing is, you know that, I know that, avg GW2 follower knows that and I bet you TB knows that - so when you play something why not make an effort for it then? Imho it was very poor effort from him, he was like umm righto....well fun! and stood there spamming 1 skill, ocasionally other ones.... He is an avid player of all games, but when I was watching the video even I had better game awareness and noticed spells off cd to be used and utilized....

    To be fair, he was surrounded by people, having a conversation in one of the videos, commentating while playing, and exploring the environment, the UI, and generally just trying new things. Under those circumstances, I think he did fine.

    Yeah I would compare his non interview ones with his interview ones. The first PvP one he did was also an interview style one and yes, he doesn't play AS well when he's doing so. He doesn't have a lot of expereince with the game, and he certainly doesn't have much (if any at all) experience with the profession he may be showing. Add up all the stuff thats going on around him and what he's trying to do (which is get information out to us) and it's quite frankly understandable.

    I cast my vote for making this a stickey.

    This, lighten up on the guy a bit. Sure, his play may be a bit subpar, but the videos have been pretty well done so far. (and there are quite a few)

    so, i was going through the elementalist videos, and i found a few which come up as broken links:

    Guild Wars 2 Charr Swimming : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNZ6zPncrqU

    Guild Wars 2 - Gameplay + Mobille App Interview - HD : couldn't find a good link

    Guild Wars 2 Killing the Shadow Behemoth : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iG7MpNXaEMo

    GW2 Demo PAX East - Elementalist : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVFAZ7hRlJs

    Guild Wars 2 PAX East Demo - More Elementalist! : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmsJQzvCuA0


    As well, one of the videos under elementalist is actually a necro video

    Guild Wars 2: Necro Combat ~

    Oh also, i vote for this being sticky-ed as well

    All those videos work for me, so I'm not sure why they aren't working for you.

    Fixed the incorrect link in the Ele bit.

    Strange, i just tried them again and for me they take me to youtube, but i get the "malformed video ID" page... i also tried directly copying the link address and pasting it to go to it and got the same.

    Edit: yeah when i copy the link address i get http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iG7Mp...eature=related for the Guild Wars 2 Killing the Shadow Behemoth one (the others all give similar). i get the same thing on Mozilla and Chrome. As well i just tested it from another computer in the house and got the same thing.

    Edit2: >_> as another note:
    PAX East 2011 - Guild Wars 2 - Home Sweet Hoelbrak - Part 1
    PAX East 2011 - Guild Wars 2 - Home Sweet Hoelbrak - Part 2
    Both come up as 404 for me, when i copy their link addresses i see you linked them through the users channel, instead of directly to the video. as a recommendation, you should always just do links to the direct video page, and not through the related videos or user pages as it can at times causes issues, least in my experience.

    Sorry if i seem like a bother, i am just trying to help and make the thread as good as possible

    Fixed those Hoelbrak links, they should work now.

    The link you gave in that post gives me the same, but the videos further up work for me. Not sure why you're getting that if I'm not.

    I'll check all the video links later when I've got some free time, and fix/delete any broken links. If you find anymore not working just give me a heads up and I'll try get them fixed asap for you and the others.

    An yeah it is quite odd that we get different things from using the same links.

    Well thanks again for the thread

    The list is missing the official "ArenaNet Retrospective Video" aka 10 year anniversary video
    Quite a good video that shows a bit of ArenaNet's history

    Holy balls. I didn't know Arenanet's history before this (I know, and I call myself a gamer). Their design philosophy makes so much more sense seeing how they started and how they run things. That's just.... there are no words for the mad respect I automatically have for Arenanet now. Makes me wish I liked more of their games!
