Those complaints aside, I really like that they’re bringing back a bunch of Guild Wars 1 lore. Simple, right? Oh, and don’t forget the fact that some important pieces of that story were locked inside raids which I haven’t done, so I had to look them up on the wiki.
The one that the evil god was pretending to be. Then we forget about the evil god for a while (until the expansion hits) and join the Shining Blade to kill the actual mursaat. Basically, the plot goes like this: There’s a bloodstone-splosion that summons an evil magical mursaat, who turns out not to be evil, except he’s actually neither of those, he’s actually an evil human god in disguise. I like the idea of the mursaat and the human gods coming back, but it was a bit back and forth. As for the story itself, it was good, if a little scattered. At least the masteries themselves have some cool effects (I love the grappling hook from episode five! I hope that comes back in some form!). It’s also nice that they were added per zone, unlike the Heart of Thorns masteries that were just dumped on you all at once with no direction as to which ones would block progress in the story. While the masteries are a little contrived (most of them only work in the zone they were added with, and it just hit me last night that I probably didn’t even need to train the Siren of Orr one from Episode Six), at least they fill up pretty fast. Season three finally brought the Living World on par with the game’s main/expansion story, with each chapter bringing its own zone, and a new mastery. Season two was at least repeatable, but it felt super rushed, and most of the chapters had a lot of filler. I didn’t really play any of season one because I took my sweet time getting any of my myriad characters to 80 (I did a little bit of the Battle for Lion’s Arch, but that’s about it), and the fact that that means I’ll never get to be properly introduced to the main cast of characters for all of the content for the foreseeable future makes season one probably the biggest blunder ArenaNet has ever made. The Living World content has always been a little hit-or-miss, especially for the first two seasons. I’m really excited for this expansion!īefore I jump into the expansion, I wanted to talk a little about Season 3. After a bizarre amount of secrecy, ArenaNet has finally announced their new expansion, Path of Fire, which comes out surprisingly soon at September 22nd.
