  • Me: Mr. President your daughter is safe.

    President: Thank you, royalknight. How may I repay you?

    Me: I demand the latest PC and Guild Wars 2!

  • The guy that makes the Skyrim music is making the music for this game ?... enough for me to buy it

  • Hey does anyone know the general time of the year that this game will come out? I am completely ignorant of this game, because I just found it now. I am so fucking getting this.

  • @CptChris69 Yes it's F2P. :)

  • @Lolwoo1 not really. It's actually b2p(buy to play) which means you have to buy the game, but there are no aditional fees required. 

  • top reason: NO MORE GRINDING

  • @EdolasMystogan There will always be a grind of some form in any video game. In this one that would be trait acquisition, achievements and the like.

  • cant wait! i was going to get swtor but since this will have no monthly fee im getting this instead

  • Okey, you got me.. Im interested =p

    From what shown here, it looks like the fresh breath MMOs needs.

    The movements looks just right, and the whole idea of no tank/healer/dps setup sounds really appealing. For too long I have wanted to be able to be more of a quick support type of thing, like fixer or trader in Anarchy online.

    Thought I'd put MMOs behind me..but... hmm... maybe not. Though, too many things have been "too good to be true" We'll see I guess =)

  • The Elder Scrolls music guy? They stayed close to that amazing concept art?! 'Nuff said, that game is as good as mine.

  • This gets me so excited!

  • can you make more videos about guild wars 2? :D

  • After SWTOR, i'm not holding my breath.

  • @buddacafe While I don't blame you, they're not comparable at all.

  • @buddacafe Look up some more videos, really understand the game before you begin to breathe, because believe me this game WILL blow you away:) And ps I agree with you about TOR it was terrible but to be honest who didn't expect it to be bad, it was a WoW clone from the start, the rp is good but it's far to grindy in between the actual personal story, the graphics are choppy, and the mmo aspect is pretty much none existent. They should of just done a full blown rpg instead.

  • @artemis7525 I hear you. But can you blame me for my comment? I mean this is beyond TOR. I hear you but i read 100 similar posts in MMORPG site (and others) in support of an upcoming game. In fact, i was one of them in support for TOR. I'm a 10 year MMO vet and seen/heard it all. I'm sure you have too. Unless your an NCSoft employee, i heard it all.

  • @buddacafe I don't blame you at all, and I have seen lots of mmo's and fell pray to false promises. Maybe I'm wrong but this feels different and I just can't get this game off my mind. RELEASE THIS GAME ALREADY!

  • Rly well done video, though skill bar info was a bit of, but that can be expected since u posted this vid in 4.29.2011. Anyways awesome job man!

  • I am so sick of WoW. I really hope guild wars 2 will finally be the one and true ruler of MMOs and dethrone WoW. I mean, it looks nicer, more fun, and does not even have a monthly fee

  • @totalishnc One time payment my good sir.

  • @totalishnc ive played WoW since launch and can't agree with you more, it's like a dried out old lady that no amount of lube can save at this point. I wasnt originally interested in GW2 never played the original but the more videos ive watched of it the more excited for it I get. Lets hope it lives up to appearances!

  • @simmsema Holy shit me too. I did not even know what the hell the game was until about 1 week ago when I was listening to "greatest battle music of all times: flameheart" when the second top comment (right below mine lol) said who knows what guild wars 2 is? so I searched it on Google and then on youtube. the more videos I watched about it the more I wanted the game. I mean, if the game is half as good as it looks in all of these videos, it is going to blow WoW out of the water

  • @totalishnc

     Try to say that to wow 10 millions subs, im sure they have the same perspective as you.

  • @totalishnc

    Im sick of WoW too, not because it doesn't live up to my standard, but it's consuming too much time. I love WoW, but I don't have a desire to play it. The reason WoW still hold 10 millions subs is because of the amount of income they are getting so that we can have patches, expansions, new dungeons...etc. GW2 will have no monthly fee which is great, but how do they afford to meet our standard when their funds is drying out. Maintaining servers cost isn't cheap.

  • standards of wow? wow better watch out because Guild Wars 2 IS THE ONE TO TAKE WOW DOWN!!!!

  • This will be interesting cause of WoW 7 years ina row of king of mmos.Gw2 No tanks,dps, and healz makes me more interested than anything thats coming out

  • ❤ GUILD WARS 2

  • Flying also reveals how badly you designed the environment ... looking at deserts oder mountains in WoW makes me wanne puke

  • I'm amazed how good everything was explained till there was no possibility you DIDN'T understand it. This for sure is allowed to have over 1Million views.

  • can't agree more

  • Alright im in!!! this games looks awesome.

  • Is there player housing or guild halls in guild wars 2?

  • @Zyndri There is an instanced zone, your own city block, so yes on housing, in a way. As for guild halls, we don't know.

  • @Kasooni K thanks I currently play everquest 2 and enjoy having the guild halls on there but I am getting bored with the game.

  • I must admit, you convinced me. I'm gonna have to add this to the list of games I keep an eye on.

  • Hey all!

    GuildWars2Society is a new channel with Guild Wars 2 footage and other Guild Wars 2 related things. We will be uploading Guild Wars 2 videos almost every day, before, but also after the release of the game. Thank you for the time of reading this comment and I hope it wasn't too spammy. I hope to see you in our community!

  • anyone know why this game has resonated so well in europe?

  • @Danielks92 they don't know the release date. Preorder sites just pick a fitting date. If you don't hear it from Arenanet it's a false release date.

  • WoW looks better (Extremely bias view)

    

  • @jaffa507 wow is a great game... not gonna lie...

    still gonna play the fuck out of this though

  • Anyone that has played the beta yet? If so, which class do you prefer? ;)

  • what do we know about the release date?

    i'm pretty sure it's being released this year but i need the exact day

    if any1 knows something about it plz reply

  • @TsEvRULEZ

    according the german amazon site:

    june 31th 2012 ;)

  • for those people saying he hasnt played the game to make valid claims on it everything he said in this vid has been claimed true already by arena net if u dont beleive me look up the gw2 official wiki its all there.... o and bye bye wow lol

  • @arcticchill07081 That's actually incorrect. While most of what he said in the video is true there are a few errors that he himself has pointed out. For instance, things will not auto level up to you, you down level to them.

  • Nice movie, good job :)

  • I prefer Tera Online :)

    Tera is better

  • @kashou80 i would really like to know why?

    (i think tera is going to be cool but not as good as GW2)

  • @kashou80 Because you've OBVIOUSLY played both games for a reasonable amount of time in order to form a completely valid opinion NOT based on biased fanboyism, right?

  • @kashou80 How can you compare two games that aren't even out yet? Or did you mean you prefer it from the footage you've seen?

  • Arena.net Y U NO SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY

  • Great video!

  • Jeff van Dyck is good too :)

  • can you be black people in this game?

  • @texmexman1 Not sure if serious but yeah. Character customization is robust yet balanced.

  • Another over hyped game. Much talk will meet with little action. That's a promise.

  • @bridaco based on the previous beta footage, they were able to completely back up what they stated in the past and then some.

  • @bridaco That's not a promise, that's an obnoxious presumption of yours based solely on the fact that you don't want anything to overtake your precious WoW.

  • I read on reddit, 'why no mounts?' *Facepaws*

    But about this video, NICE.

  • Im slightly concerned if i can run this game on my windows 7, 64 bit, 640GB pc i play SWTOR and have to put it on low graphic settings because i lag on medium an high i wish arenanet put the specs on there official website so i know if i should get a new pc or graphic card

  • two bad things about GW2: No dueling, no world pvp :(

    The rest is... you know ;)

  • @bl1nd2012 ummmm did you not hear the the World vs World PVP is amazing. people are calling it Darkage of camlot 2...(best PVP MMo) thats why so many of us PVPers are looking forward to this game. not sure what you have been reading? a zone with 3way server PVP with 1000s of people, castles, towers, camp to attack... and there is also 1v1 fights to

  • @Jstudly771

    I know about WvWvW, its amazing and i will play this game for sure, but i just was saying about this game not having 1v1 discipline(dueling or hunting someone in world), teamplay is good, but making it the only way of pvp looks weird for me :S

  • That was Ridiculous. Cannot wait.

  • CANT WAIT FOR OPEN BETAAAAAAA

  • Good Bye Six-pack

    Heeeelllo Guild Wars2!

  • @milk454 lol

  • @milk454 Let's be honest, you play mmo's, you don't have a six pack, nobody that watched this video does: )

  • @milk454 you can easily find time for both

  • Why I miss beta T-T

  • I'm so stoked for the beta!! I know that over 1million people entered so I try not to get my hopes for getting in to high...But its so hard not to :/

  • Best Guild Wars 2 video out there so far. I'm sooooo looking forward to this game but i can't stand everyone putting out Beta / Press footage without saying a set date for the game to come out! It's pathetic, really. But i'm really glad they are working hard with this to make it look as awesome as possible.

  • @TheSeriousBeast Making sure that they have plenty of time to finalize and make the game perfect is pathetic? Quite the view of business you have there.

  • @TheSeriousBeast This year, most probably late 2012. Open Beta starts this spring.

  • Give me.

  • @Alexrediculous - Dude, this is the first video i've watched from you. And i love it. It's very imformative - and i enjoyed it throughout. I hope you keep them coming!

  • i wanted this game before i heard about micro-transactions.. no fucking thank you, not gonna pay for a pay2win game

  • @TEHUMUR It's not pay to win, nor was the first Guild Wars. All the micro transactions are is cosmetic items like costumes, mini pets and name changes/server changes. There will be no buying skills or items with bonuses to them. Jumped the gun a little bit, please do research before doing that. :(

  • @TEHUMUR it isn't a pay2win game trust me...

  • @TEHUMUR The micro-transactions are cosmetic stuff that have no impact on stats.

  • @TEHUMUR It's not gonna be pay2win, calm your fucking self. Dig out those panties from your ass, they are obviously too deep in.

  • JUST TAKE MY MONEY!

  • Zwo reasons not to care about GW2:

    - Charr

    - Asura

  • @numbers9to0 Wtf is wrong with the Charr?

  • @numbers9to0 u mean 2 extra reasons to care about it...

  • You got me at: Guild Wars 2 is an upcomming MMO-RPG by Arena net.

  • Again: An absolutely wonderful, informative video. I'm so happy that these type of videos are still being made. Thankyou, Alexrediculous.

  • I was thinking you could just download it like perfect world ect. No one said it was going to be in stores.

  • @wangtaztic You are probably going to be able to download it, but you are still going to need to buy the game to play it. Seeing as it is going to be Buy2play

  • Omg :D So many comments inc while the vid is almost a year old :D

    I soo wanna play this game :D

  • you got me at "no monthly fees" ; )

  • i really do like your videos, the video it self with the music and your voice is high quality content :P

  • ...and hackers rampant since you can just make a new email and sign back in. F2p is garbage. If you can't afford 15$ a month you should probably get a job.

  • @wangtaztic how do you make a new email and log back in? you have an account you still have a code on the box copy that you have to have attached to your account. AKA if you want to make a new email then you gotta buy the box copy again...

  • @wangtaztic

    " If you can't afford 15$ a month you should probably get a job."

    if you cant realise that $15 a month is blatant day light robbery and is only done to line the pockets of greedy companies who dont give two shits about their fan base or their games then you're an idiot.

  • @wangtaztic Of course, each time you get banned you have to buy a NEW COPY of the game, thus contributing resources in the ongoing fight against hackers. Poetic, no?

  • When this game will come to the public it will be hacked after 1 month give or take a few weeks just wait...

  • @H8tinVidz Just like every game out there, and?

  • Guild Wars 2 = Definition of Epic.

  • haha nice something to kill wow completely :) so excited

  • world of warcraft has a better lore. BOOOOMM WoW won

  • @jwz050bro

    better lore? like sparkly space ponies and kung fu pandas?

  • 3:07-3:20

    me: ARM! 0.0

  • @xXJmcmaxminecraftXx wtf, i didn't notice it until i saw your comment, i'm fucking blind! D:

  • "Throws Money at the Screen" wtf nothing happens :/

  • 1 reason why not to be interested: you are gonna have to wait for it to come out :(

  • FUUUUUU!!! Another MMO that seems AWSOME!! ...must ..resist.. temptation... .....crap....

  • Is there any ground mounts???

  • @TheEggsonlegs No mounts at all, though Colin Johanson has simply stated "not at launch".

  • @Kasooni Thank you, It nice people like you reply :D 

  • The only let down for me is the:" No tank, healer, dps"

    You wont feel unique when playing, you will just be a player in the group, and that sounds kinda boring. You want a reputation if you are a skilled player.

  • @BrownCookieBoy I can see where you are coming from, but FUCK ME THE 30MINUTE QUEUES AAAARRRRGGGHHH no more... :D

  • Comment removed

  • @BrownCookieBoy Who says "skilled player" only fits the definition of a tank healer or dps? Sure you can be a skilled tank, healer or dps, but there's a million of you out there, no matter how skilled you are, reputation only goes so far. Besides that, skill will fit more into this game because you are responsible for yourself, if you survive horrible odds by your merit, then you're skilled. Get it?

  • @Kasooni If you say there is a million of tank healers and dps, how many do you think there will be of a class that can play everything? Everyone in the game can do exactly everything you can do.

    When you are responsible for yourself, you will focus mostly on yourself and therefore not noticing what everyone around you does.

    Its like playing single player in a team. You won't have to interact at all with the other players. You are more skilled if you can cooperate with others.

  • @BrownCookieBoy You want cooperation hm? Alright, in this game there is a system that allows people to combine character skills. Say an elementalist lays down a trail of fire, a ranger can shoot arrows through it and they become flaming arrows. Same elementalist, a warrior can whirlwind through the flames and create a flaming vortex around him. Get it? Cooperation is still there, much more so than it would be in WoW with the trinity, trust me. It's your decision though, so yeah.

  • @BrownCookieBoy they are actually trying to bring back the Multy player in MMO. Everyone works togeather you dont even have to group, everyone gets credit. you actually want to be around other people in this game. you can still do group rolls if you want but its not needed. no tank holding aggro = more fun imo because you dont know what to expect. and when someone gets hurt, you can toss um a heal then start atatcking again. + class cross combo skills.. now thats cool and = teamwork.

  • @BrownCookieBoy Where is your point? With the trinity people are just the ''tank, healer or dps'' you aren't unique and you get replace if you made a mistake just because someone will came and do the same exact thing you were doing.

  • @19EJ91 My point is, you wont have a specific reputation other than you race and class. Lets say you are really good at healing "He's a really good healer". You will never hear that in Gw2. since there are no healers tanks or dps.

    The things you do, you can do with every class you are playing, how boring will that be after 2 years?

    Yea let people get replaced, it brings so much more competition into the game, competition brings forth skills and serious players.

  • @BrownCookieBoy Starcraft 2 as an example, there are good player and people recognize them right? and everyone is just Z, T or P what make them different is how good you play your race. I was healer on WoW and I can tell is impossible for a healer win a fight doesn't matter how good you are. And people will recognize a healer with good gear, I know that because when I was lvl 340 no1 wanted me because of my ilevel then when I was 388 every1 wanted me. Is just a matter of ilevel not skill...

  • @19EJ91 So, you just told me that guilds invite you cause of the item level?

    I had to go through many raids and target practice to join.... That requires skill

  • @BrownCookieBoy Well you are going to tell me that you never saw on the channel:

    "LFM, FL pst ilvl and ach (ilvl 370+)''

    Like you said is requested experience/practice not skill don't be confuse is not the same.

  • @BrownCookieBoy You can still specialize if you want. "You are what you equipt". You can be a Rouge with a greatsword doing massive DPS if you know how to do it right. Or you can be a Necromancer with heavy armor and a shield and be the best Tank. Stop being so narrow minded. VISUALIZE!

  • @BoondockDevil Let's not jump the gun on that too much here. You can't equip heavy armor as a necromancer nor can you use a greatsword as a thief. Just correcting, don't want false info going about.

  • @BoondockDevil What about the healers then? Im pretty sure there are no setup for a player that want only healing spells, tank spells etc

  • I was planning on not playing MMOs after uni when I get a job. That is most definitely not happening

  • World v World! Can't wait to play this and do a speech and charge aimlessly at the castle. Also this is the best game ever! Don't have a PC though... and my laptop has realy small memory space. Sucks to be me. I envy you PC nerds.

  • no dueling ...

  • I only played night fall and this sssshhhhiiiiiittttt is aaaaawwwwweeeeesssssommmmmmmmm­e! Gamer Boner

  • no tanks? no dps?no healer? FAIL!!!!

  • @m4ss4cr3br Not a fail any class can do somewhat all of these.

  • @m4ss4cr3br euhm no.... now you dont have the waiting like a fck we need a healer.

    you can heal yourself, all classes have some DPS and some tanky skills, its your choise how you set it up. this is just balancing a game instead of an overpowered class that every 1 is gonna play

  • @m4ss4cr3br Every class can be a healer or dps or TANK! Go back to WoW if you can't deal with that.

  • @m4ss4cr3br Stfu guy

  • Excellent video ^^

  • funny i felt nostalgic as soon as the oblivion music came on : /

  • I've been considering getting this game, never played the first one but this does look like a fairly good game, and the no monthly fee is a massive up for me, no "you have to pay for the privilege of playing." One of the things turning me away however is how much system requirements will be needed, I have a pretty crappy computer (I was able to play wow without many problems though, but then wow will most likely prove to be far less demanding considering the graphics and simplistic combat.)

  • @mdude009 There saying that they are not trying to make it to intense so people with mainstream computers will be able to play it. Hope this helps :D

  • @IDKwatever96 It does actually, it lets me know I won't require a powerhouse computer, so even if there are some problems I could just turn down some of the video setting to get it to run smoothly.

  • @mdude009 Dont worry, to try and make sure all people can play.

    Their actually using chips, so old you can buy anymore.

    Now you will have to be on low setting yes, but you can play it.

  • @mdude009 I meant chips that are so old you can't buy them anymore.

  • Comment removed

  • I am SO FREAKING PUMPED

  • nice vid =)

  • @tominatorxx More like Q3/4, it's still in closed beta. Public tests haven't even started yet and there will be many of those before release.

  • @TheWeirdTechGuy It'll be out during the summer, public beta starts soon. Closed beta is over.

  • @Kasooni when is public beta out ?

  • @ROCKNOTRAP1 It starts in March, the 48 hour period that we were allowed to sign up for is the public beta.

  • it's so epic

    I NEED IT BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ok will the what will the microtransactions in this game consist of? THe best gear, best abilities? Or secondary things like exp pots, and pets?

  • @keulain None of those, the microtransactions will only consist of cosmetics. So nothing that you can buy for real money will make you better/stronger, level faster, get more gold etc. Only stuff that affect appearance. ArenaNet has said that they wont allow players to buy themselves powerfull :)

  • @keulain

    all secondary things like you mentioned aswell as dyes(you can find them all in game but there will be an option to buy them if you cant be bothered to find them) aswell as extra character slots.

    there will most likely be weapons and armour sold in the store aswell however these will be purely cosmetic so that players can transmute(like transmog from wow) them onto better gear, these items will be no better than common "white" gear

  • @keulain Gw1 have the same sale model, and look at what they sell in the item mall.

    It all crap, that does not help you at all.

    Like cosmetics and stuff.

    So no they will not do any of that.

  • I have never... NEVER wanted a game as much as i want guild wars 2

    This is seriously the game i have been hoping for ever since guild wars got me into MMO's but i still wanted the actiony gameplay from action/FPS games ect..

  • When is it coming out?!

  • @MoneybagzAssassin Q2 2012

  • @tominatorxx Actually, more like Q3/4

  • hopfully out by the end of 2011 lol XP more like hopfully before the end of 2012

  • Looks like it could be good. Not sure how I feel about no flying, I like classes that are a bit more specialty personally because it brings some diversity to the game. Most people would disagree with me but I like pay to play. That money isn't just going to no where, it's going into constant updates, bug fixes, and planning. Definitely going to be trying this one out though, looks like it could be promising.

  • @elemento1991

    actually that money is going no where, only a tiny percentage of it actually goes to updates and so on.

    with 10 mill subs wow makes 150 million dollars a month, you honestly think that those little balancing patches and the occasional content patch cost 150 mill a month to make? no.

    your sub fee is going straight to the pockets of the shareholders, no where else, subs were originally implemented to mitigate server costs, this is no longer problem, subs fees are plain profit.
