LightningWolfTigerBear.672 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 "Bangar’s war machine has driven out of the Far Shiverpeaks and farther west, to the dense forests of the Woodland Cascades—an area inspired by the beautiful Pacific Northwest that ArenaNet calls home" As someone born and raised in Washington, I'm ****ing ecstatic. Anyone else hype for the next LS locale? I'm already dying to explore it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Priestess.9760 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Pacific Northwest as in Rainforests or Pacific Northwest as in Mountains, though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would assume rainforest. When people think of the PNW they generally imagine something like Olympic National Park, that and they specifically said "dense forests".

Perihen the Thawk.9527 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Also a PNW native and I am very excited, I've always wanted to see their artists try an environment like that. Also, I'm *really* curious to know why Bangar is leaving the mountains and heading west. Doesn't really sound like he's headed to Jormag *or* returning to Charr lands for reinforcements.

It'll be interesting to see how different it is from the GW1 location, at least the part of it we could explore back then(the Verdant Cascades).

Doesn't really sound like he's headed to Jormag *or* returning to Charr lands for reinforcements. I think its because at the end of the chapter it was outright implied that the charr forces abandoned him. So he wanted to kill Drakkar to show that he was the dragon's champion now. He's probably going to seek out the deserters and rally them once more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When people think of the PNW they generally imagine something like Olympic National Park, that and they specifically said "dense forests". I live on the Island so yeah, rainforest usually comes to mind first as well, like Cape Scott and the West Coast Trail, Cathederal Grove or even Bamfeild. However, to get forests that dense in game would be a really difficult feat, especially considering how many people here don't have gaming pcs that would be able to handle the load.

Anyone else hype for the next LS locale? I'm already dying to explore it. As someone that's dreamed of moving to Washington, I'm totally stoked. Probably the closest I'll ever get to even visiting it. Hoping it encompasses more than just the Verdant Cascades though. From what I remember in Guild Wars 1 that area looked more like Maguuma. Also wondering what Bangar's forces motivations' are for moving west. Working his way towards Divinity's Reach to start a war or something?

Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Born and raised in Oregon and Washington, I'm looking forward to the forests. Truly, there is sooo much to look forward to now. :mrgreen: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
