  • 1 turd for brains disliked :(

  • who is the fucking noob who dont like that music

  • the sound of nostalgia

  • This reminds me of the old guild wars :P

    I can't believe i can still remember the beta when I saw people with capes (who had guilds) and I thought it looked excellent >:D

  • Jeremy i a true genius!

  • oh i forgot....this song is totaly awesome, jeremy again and again....touches my soule :)

  • it will be soooooooooooo great when gw2 starts and all the old gw players find themselves together again and share all of those great moments they shared back in the days just 3746736 times better.. and i believe that the game will bring up all the good things, including the world, the love that is put into detail, the atmosphere, the music, this significant guild wars feeling, guild wars itself is more than a masterpiece of art.....i'm still counting the hours :) <3

  • guild wars 2 is gonna be great about bringing people together :D

  • i mis GW times QQ

  • Guild wars 2 will set a new benchmark that's set way to high for competitors to even think about improving on.

  • Oh I remember it so well! Take me back!

  • Way back in the day I heard this in Kryta I think....I haven't heard it anywhere since factions...it was my favorite and I'm glad I found it on here.

  • u never heard this song in ashford abbey cuz its not in ashford abbey...its in Embark Beach. :3

  • @NRTeen I know for sure that this song plays somewhere in pre-searing atleast.

  • Ugh my account was hacked on gw. :\ I miss my best friend..

  • excellent

    

  • It's weird , whenever I was in ashord abbey I never heard this song playing.

  • @PrimevalHunter300 it's pre-searing

  • One of the best games I've ever played, musics really awesome, can't wait for gw 2 :)

  • This track sounds even better when you add some treble in the EQ. ;)

  • amazing song cant wait for the guild wars 2 music!

    

  • This is one of my favorites.... However I don't remember hearing it in the eden, at all. I only remember hearing it because I left the loging screen open, and during the demon invasion ( NF event ) in lion's arch.

  • I loved Pre-searing sooo much :'-)

    I recently made a necro so I could be in pre again... so much has changed though... it just doesn't hold that old charm anymore.

  • man..i grow up with this song...it makes me cry.. :'(

  • Favourite theme :) i love creating a new proph character and playing pre-searing <3

  • My favorate and only composer, beautiful music that can bring tears of nostalgia.

    I really enjoyed this game, from ascalon to the shiverpeaks, from kryta to the jungle, over to the desert and back to the shiverpeaks before killing the lich.

    Neverwinter Nights to Guildwars to Oblivion and soon to come Guildwars 2

    Jeremy Soule made guildwars :)

  • @Philmozzila Not to mention, and soon to come The Elder Scrolls V :3

  • I missed Ascalon's lush fields after the Searing. Like a lot. Guild Wars 2 will bring that feeling though with Divinity's Reach and Shaemoor! It's so beautiful! I can't wait!

  • This song reminds me of the quest where you need to pick up the jar surrounded with bee's xD Very good times, best gaming experience i've ever had on any platform/genre of gaming!

  • And don't forget the wurms. The sweet little practice targets :)

  • this music sends slow chills of pleasant nostalgia down my spine...

    guild wars is the shit.

  • guild wars music is beautiful

  • There is no option to set higher quality, only 240p

  • @InStars Oh haha that's because this was uploaded when Youtube only had the "High Quality" button instead of all these qualities and HD stuff. Too lazy to remove it :P

  • @Phenylbutanol Yet you weren't lazy enough to post a reply....

  • @Phenylbutanol Yet you were not lazy enough to prevent you posting a reply?

  • This song is so pleasant in many scales

  • fuck that one guy who dislikes this one!

  • Jeremy Soul is a hero, and he should be worshipped as such

  • Jeremy Soul is a hero, and should be worshipped as such

  • Just lately i tried doing Thunderhead Keep which was completely impossible when i started but now every1 got their stupid OP skills and OP heroes :(

  • I'd make new characters, but everyone's already lvl 20 and doing something else, and it's not as fun. GW isn't the same anymore. I remember forming groups that would last from yaks bend till you got to the crystal desert, and everyone was lower lvl, lvling up with you. You'd spend all saturday night joking, talking, and doing missions with people you became friends with, a real team. And it was fun.

  • @SaintGrench I totally agree. D: There was a very real aspect back then...I guess you could call it a very "human" aspect because nowadays everyone's got heroes and there's really no point in trying to forge relationships with actual players when you can simply run through areas and missions without the least effort. Not sayin' that heroes are a bad thing...but the GW of the old was definitely the best.

  • @SaintGrench Very true. I still love Guild Wars but I remember having a lot more fun before people were able to just use heroes for everything and before people would kick you out of a group for not using a cookie-cutter build from PVX.

  • @SaintGrench And now most people just buy the game to argue and chatroom.

  • @ThraxxNecro I must be in the minority then lol

  • @SaintGrench Go play GW2 when it release, will be exactly the same experience

  • @SaintGrench you make me cry ;''(

  • @SaintGrench worry not friend, you shall have the same experience once again when gw2 finally comes out. ill see you in tyria then! :)

  • I was so happy when I arrived here.... after leaving the walls of ascalon I was a little scared.... /sigh man time flies....

  • Comment removed

  • Hmm never heard that song in AA. To me it was lways the theme of Lion's Arch. Even now a short reprise of it plays when u enter LA.

  • I remember the first character I ever made... We was a minion-mancer.... I mapped out every inch of pre, and did every single quest. And when it got nuked, I was like WHATHAHELLLL! It made me sad, and from that point further I always got the hell out of there the soonest i could...

  • Ascalon this way >>>>>>>>>>>>

  • No wonder why I enjoyed the music so much in this game...same composer as Oblivion :D

  • How I really love this. it almost makes me cry while bringing back the memories of playing pre-searing in GW Prophecies for the very first time. This pre-searing has carved so deep to my head that it always reminds me of GW when it is autumn here in Finland and the leaves are yellow, orange or red.

  • @Molopaeae Ah.. Guild Wars Prophecies was the best MMO experience in my life. BTW I am from Finland too

  • @Empowerless Very, very true :)

  • this game realy had something that made it special.

    the first year ,maby the first 2, it was realy great.

    but it went downhill when they added heroes that the player can control.

    no1 except me seemed to want to do stuff TOGETHER, and laugh/talk while doing the quests/missions. i've stopped playing for quite some time now, simply cause it's become lonely...

    still, those 2 years of my life that i DID enjoy the game, realy sticked with me.

    as Airbusftw said : it reminds me of more simpler times

  • @Kolashov I agree. I always tried to find people who wanted to do quests together...but they never did.

  • @Kolashov the game is getting active again because Guildwars 2 is coming out next year (probably). I suggest you start playing it again! :) you can join my guild if u want lol

  • @MisterLextoc i tries , but my accaunt is gone aparently ! x(

  • @Kolashov That's impossible, Guild Wars doesn't delete/disable accounts. But you do need to know the e-mail adress used for your account

  • @MisterLextoc i swear , i've tried everything :p a friend of mine has the same problem :/

  • @Kolashov how do u mean? what does it show when u try to login?

  • @MisterLextoc says my password is wrong. But it isn't. I have 4 passwords wich i use for everything. :/

  • @Kolashov if your password is wrong then it's wrong lol, just request a new one. As excuse u can tell em u forgot it over the years, to convince them u can tell how many chars u had of what prof/lvl :)

  • @MisterLextoc i tried the "i've lost my password" thingy , and they said they'd send it to my email. However , i haven't received anything :( i still know the lvl , name , and class of my main character though

  • @Kolashov email them you forgot ur account email adress and tell them the name of your characters, they'll send u the email of the account and u can play gw:)

  • This song is really sad. You don't really notice how sad this song sounds until after Ascalon has been destroyed. The song kind of says "this place is great, enjoy it while you can."

  • I don't know about you guys, but I made another warrior just so I could play through Pre again

  • <<teenager again who was always rushing to the pc after school

  • This piece really brings back memoirs of my childhood and GW moments. Ahh.

  • This song reminds me of the simpiler times in life-a.k.a. being 5 and running through my backyard, but not seeing it as a backyard, but a wild forest...Aaaaahhhh....

  • This song is powerful. The second you leave pre, you miss the music, the scenery, and it kind of makes you feel that you'll never be in such a nice place again and that the world is changed forever.

  • @tgtothemax33 i know how u feel

    poor askalon then got powned :( , makes me wana go and get deffender of askalon (get to 20 in pre)

  • @IBioPoxI

    O_O its possible to get to lvl 20 in pre searing???? Won't you run outta quests and stuff?

  • @Runewright31 It's very tedious; you have to keep dying until the ENEMIES level up, so that you can gain experience from them (you stop gaining experience from lower level foes after a while). But you get a special title for doing it. XD

  • @tgtothemax33 Then you get to the Charr homelands and get to see that beauty once again, right down to the red iris flowers...

  • Good old times, when I didn't knew about the Post :D

  • I sometimes hear this song play when you enter Lions Arch, but it stops after a few seconds... Good thing it completely plays in Lion's Arch keep now :D

  • wow i really miss the good old guild wars :(

  • Memories...... That was the best time of my Life ^^

  • I know Guild Wars is a very long lasting game... But I don't think the song is supposed to keep going even after the video stops O_o

  • @Huodai lol

  • Is this theme when enter Ashford Abbey or the field around it?

    Cause I don't really remember this theme that good maybe cause I don't spend much time in AShford.

    But this theme is beautiful!

  • @bubbaXzone you also sometimes here uhm, eye of the storm near ashford abbey both beautiful!

  • ah..when i listen to this...almost makes me cry, brings back old memories when i first started Guild wars back then when it came out :')

  • @LeadDe I so totally agree, it's just so nostalgic and peaceful

  • Oh, man. I got the original Prophecies mere months after it was first released - don't remember if it ever cued in Pre-Searing, but I do remember hearing it during Borlis Pass, when you reunite with Prince Rurik.

    Rest well, my Prince, and may you find peace within the Hall of Heroes.

  • reminds me of old times!

  • Oh the wonderful times!! =D

  • Jeremy Soule is so amazing, makes you feel relaxed.

    I remember when this first came out 4-5 years ago? and I was a wittle noober in Pre x3 ahh~ the memories ~

  • i explode with nostalgia inside when i'm reminded of pre

  • Me too. D:

  • uff tutorial feeling with my ranger

  • i loved guild wars so much but thx to wo i cant love the game for a long time so i downloaded a addon long ago to change my ingame sounds to guild wars, droknors forge is ironforge etc ,and so on i love jeremy soul and his music :) GUILD WARS 2 here i come !

  • Memories <3 THANK you GUILD WARS!

  • Must... farm...dyes :D

  • This is greatest composition of jeremy soule. Mainly because it msmerises my mind....very soothing. I put it in repeat in the player to play all day ....

    This is the only thing i liked in Guild wars. Remind me of how i was obsessed with GW when it come playing 12 hrs day..for 3 months ...

    great times...

    Night fall , Faction are not that good compared to prophecies.

  • @boxedin In my humble opinion, I think that "Beyond the northern wall" and the Luxon theme are the best compositions at the moment. As for the other campaigns, I never really was a fan of Nightfall, but factions has that underlying tone of "Epic". At least in the concept art which you really should check out if you haven't already.

  • whats wrong in max 20lvl? it makes teamwork necessary

  • That may be true but when you hit level 20 it feels like your saying, "That's It?" Me personally love the story and PvP in fact everything, and if I had the game again, I'd play it.

  • you could always download the game from the guildwars website. all you need to know is your email and password

  • Dont you need a CD key?

  • Yea. I thought you meant you used to have the game because you said if you had it "again" you would play it. But if you remember your original email address (which has your CD key tied to it) then you can just download the client from the GW website and log right in!

  • Well the point of Guild Wars when it originally was released, was to be a PvP game. Hence why it's one of the only MMO's that gives you option at start to either create a PvE, or hop Straight into PvP with max level max armor etc. Also it wasn't to play "one class your whole life of the game" The point of the game was to learn to play EVERY CLASS learn them all! use them all! If the level cap was 40-60 then leveling all ur chars would just be gay

  • @sumrandomaccount420 and once you know every class cross classing comes in

    necro monk anyone? very powerfull shit (eventho it says emo lol)

    or warrior monk

  • I really like this song, it's one of the things that i remember best from the days when i loved guild wars.

  • This song reminds me of more simpler times in my life.

  • lol, oh yes, those simpler times. How we all took them for granted :-)

  • @Airbusftw Agreed oh so agreed

  • @Airbusftw me too like when I first bought Guildwars

  • @Airbusftw Me too man, me too :)

  • @Airbusftw oh yeah.....and really miss this time of my life..it was great...sometimes...i understand all that guys without a job, playing their favorite games all day long..probably not the badest life...^^

  • @Airbusftw

    So much this... I miss those days when Prophecies just came out.. We were all put into this amazing new world where nobody knew speed clears.. forge runs.. hero spam.. and things were, like you said much simpler back then. /nostalgia

  • @Airbusftw yea your right, i wonder if thats what jermey soule intented. Maybe theres a page of him describing his music? anyone? that would be very interesting.

  • Memories....

    this soundtrack sounds like a Mediavel song... :)

  • This is truly a masterpiece by Jeremy Soule. He also produced TES IV Oblivion's Soundtrack which impresses me everytime I hear it

  • sometimes i find myself humming the oblivion soundtrack and i cant remeber whether its is GW or oblivion, they both sound quite alike as far as instruments, and they have the same mood, just perfect for some fantasy world escapism :)

  • GW is definately the best game ever.. ive played a shitload of games too... Gw is simply amazing... too bad not as many ppl play anymore :( ....still a good amount play and its still a great game :)

  • This song makes me want to kill Grawl and Skale.

  • @Aeruchin Don't forget those fire starters and those seeds :)

  • @Aeruchin same thing to me *__* ascalon tutorial <3

  • @Aeruchin Omg you almost made me cry :'( let's go grawl killing in pre searing! I love those times!

  • Guild wars without jeremy soule would be nothing!

  • You spoke my words. I love Jeremy Soule. I saw his new hair on myspace though. He doesn't look like the same Composer he use to :'( He looks like some heavy metal music artist.

  • Pre is peaceful. =]

    GW is life changing..but i had to quit when it died..hopefully start again with GW2 =]

  • GW Didn't die, It's still alive, I love the game <3

  • yeah me too...:D playing it..enjoying it! and its not dead..its here with us

  • Best game ever...

  • This game changed my life

  • This game got me into concept art drawing and caught my interest to classical music. I just wouldn't be the same...

  • Me too. You just imagine how many GW professions and specializations have I now drawn.

  • in a bad way? lol

  • Too bad Ascelon got owned...

  • so nostalgic....

  • The pre is so AMAZING! I love it its so peaceful

  • You know, it's always a bad idea to leave pre-ascalon, it's just so relaxing with the tender graphics and beutiful music.

  • i need to start playing again

  • Lol always pay attention to the music and the styles of games rather the actual gameplay most of the time. Like I love customzation in a game.

  • Exactly! I've only got one friend I can really tell my affection towards music like this to, and that's because he's into all kinds of music and values how orchestra music is the foundation of all music we hear today.

    Orchestra can just put emotions in sound like rock, rap, pop or any other kind of music simply cannot.

  • Not true any genre can have emotion simple needs a good artist

  • Those where the most relaxing days of my life, 15- 17 years where the best years ever, introduction of WOW and Guildwars.

  • yeah, the one thing that brings back memories of the early GW days and pre searing...is the music.

  • Bought the game when i was 13, with prophecies i had the greatest MMORPG experience, this soundtrack is absolutely great, and i loved the game until factions came, then it began to be very boring. Had great time with prophecies....

  • same here,just wait to GW 2

  • again, same

    and i even started when i was 13 too

  • Same when i was 13 now im 17 lolz. . But yep Prophecies was the best one!

  • lol yeah I suppose I'm also ashamed a bit. I do listen to those types of music whenever I can though.

  • does windows vista work with guild wars prophecies.

  • yeah.

  • Eye of The North is worth it, a lot. Compared to Factions and Nightfall it really extends as far as the gameplay goes.

  • makes me almost cry when i hear this music...reminds me when i bought this game sooo old..like almost 4 years ago...old sweet days of guildwars:))

  • They really killed Guild Wars with Factions and all the other junk, if it was just Eye of The North added on to this it would be epic.

  • Jeremy Soule is the king of rpg music

  • man what did anet do to this game and its music....bring it all back please!!!

  • ???

  • This makes me want to play the game again. It brings up the good memories.

    But I shouldn't start, because I'll be playing this game 24/7 again D:!

  • Guildwars, prob one of the games!

  • haha D12 :) hater

  • Great times! But new great memories await.

  • mm'k w/e

  • How does listening to music like this make us nerds?

  • Oh man the memories!!

  • memories of getting owned

  • good times ;(

  • 26 years old and still acting like a kid! How sad.

  • another beautiful tune of prophecies. /sigh
