the new GW2 living world #1 magazine

[AlexxxDelta.1806]

Nice little promo. Pretty nostalgic too as it has the look of old gaming mags. The fake throwback ad for the saga, with the box and 4 cds, reminded me how much I'm missing physical copies.

[RoseofGilead.8907]

I'm gonna need a real copy of Destiny's Pledge . . . for science.

[Magnus Godrik.5841]

This was nicely done. Applauso todo mundo. This was insightful. Joras daughter. Perhaps a repeatble dungeon/raid thing 10man combo stuff. Nothing about the deepsea dragon. Im hyped now.

The Deep Sea Dragon mystery is a part of old games maganizes nostalgic too. The old games magazines sometimes was the only way u can know something about cheat codes, speculations or easter eggs etc. The water dragon is our _Noob Saibot_.

I’m looking forward to issue 2 having “pokes” we can use to access secrets.

The snippet describing Primordus is bugging the heck out of me. The terms "fire" and "conflagration" are synonyms. Why are those the two words used to describe that particular Dragon?

conflagration also means "violent political revolution" in some languages, it is an allusion: revolts that spread like wildfire. For some reason i dont know the second meaning has fallen into disuse / oblivion in English. In portuguese/spanish that word(conflagração) is more used in the sense of spreaded revolt than literal wildfire. .. the word orign is from latin conflagratio/confl-(conflict).

I knew that was another usage, but it just didn't seem to fit in with what we know about Primordus. Maybe if it pops up in this new story, that definition will make more sense in reference to Primordus.

i had misread this part as "clarification" that it would fit too. lolz.

i guess hes probably will be presented a more direct/raw confrontation dragon. Also Primordus seems dont bother much about corrupt living beings.

I dunno came off to me like a computer parts sales flyer...

[Kaliwenda.3428]

I really like this magazine, it reminds me of ones from years ago. I hope we see more issues in the future.

And we really need to see some excerpts from "Destiny's Pledge". :) That reminds me, I wonder if that strange little asura who was obsessed with the Commander will be at the new Charr area?

[Witch of Doom.5739]

I think this promo was very well done and I'm enjoying it 100x more than the theater event. So many little funny things to find -- love the "subscription card" (of course, no subscription required) that says in the stamp area, "No postage necessary if mailed in Tyria."

> Quite a bit of this is interesting, but especially the character info. Jhavi is apparently a Vigil leader, Rytlock will once again cause the events to unfold, Braham will be feeling backlash from his actions and subsequent failure to destroy Jormag, and Crecia has Flame Legion heritage.

She has been in the game from day one as a leader of the Vigil. You can find her in the Vigil Keep in Gendarran Fields. It is nice to see she will play a (significant) role in the new saga.

Funny you say that cause the console at the entrance of Moto's lab is a NES gamepad requiring you to tap a specific code found in w3-z1 during back to school sab. Through only arrows and start/select if I remember well.

 

I just think the DSD and its minions are just too big to fit within the page. Continue to believe it's a kind of turtle like bristleback.

in GW2 there are several traces that their developer team has some Old School gamers, exploration itself has something reminding me of Zelda, although I can't say exactly what it is (at top head i can say its 15 years++ that i didnt see Zelda).

So why did we not get a second issue for episode 1?i was hoping we would get these for all new episodes of the saga. Dokt abandon it please it was fun to read.
