I'm curious how branching the personal story will really be. The demos really haven't had much in terms of content in this regard, and that's one of the selling points is that it's a non-linear character story. Hoepfully it branches enough to promote a lot of replay-ability and alts. Maybe enough so that a single person would never be able to experience all the branching paths, that would be great.

Do you guys think we will see GW2 in the E-Sport category ?
Hey, I have a few questions.
Does:
-World PvP [similar to WoW alliance/horde]
-Arena [with Scoreboard (or something worth fighting for)]
-Battlegrounds [Scoreboard (or something worth fighting for)]
-Duels
exists in GW2 ?
-World PVP.
There is no Wow style open world PVP. Core philosophy of GW2 is you should never be uphappy to see another player, so someone corpse camping you doesn't really belong in GW2. What GW2 does have, is World vs World vs World PVP, which is 3 servers fighting a 2 week long 24/7 battle on special maps of an enormous scale. Think of it like old AV on every insane drug ever cooked up.
-Arena [with Scoreboard (or something worth fighting for)]
There will be many different types of structured 5v5 tournaments. Official tournaments are monthly, with the winners participating in a yearly tournament to crown the best of the best. You can also make player run tournaments.
-Battlegrounds [Scoreboard (or something worth fighting for)]
The only BG released so far (more to follow) is 5v5 conquest with 3 capture points, first to 500 points wins.
-Duels
They have said they will provide 1v1 options, although they won't be open world (i.e. fighting in front of a city)
Also, here is an overview on the GW2 site that you might find interesting:

I can't believe I convinced myself that the GW2 community was generally better than others. With very few exceptions, (at least on these forums) I feel like most posters that are fans of GW2 are also very open and more civil in their discussions. Then I take a look here after Blizzcon...
Did you ever have your parents tell you "I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed." Yeah, that's me right now. Well, minus the part where you give a shit what I think. Carry on.

Ok I'm hoping someone will be willing to help shed some light and relieve my worries on this game. I'm excited for this game, but I hear there will be no raiding like most traditional MMOs have. So I ask, what will the main meat be for a "hardcore" MMOer like me who focused much of his gametime around raiding? Besides the obvious pvp, questing, story, and regular dungeons, where's the main course? Thanks.
