Aaah. I didn't really notice that it snuck up so fast, but less than 3 weeks to go!!!
They've been doing their usual drip feed of information every week, and so far I'm looking forward to it. Some minor spoilers below the break!
The relic system (as controversial as it is,) I think will open up some really cool possibilities with what it's doing. I can sympathise with the folks who feel wronged by having crafted legendary runes, but I think the stink they're raising about it is way overblown.
The rifts look pretty neat as well. From what I can glean they're replacing the bounty system, but they claim that the lowest difficulty tier is designed to be solo'd. Plus, no cooldown! You can just turn them on and go rift hunting. GW2 really excels in open world content so I'm excited for this one.
I'm very curious about this Wizard's Vault business... They haven't revealed what it is, exactly. I've seen speculation based on the wording of things that it'll be GW2's answer to battle passes, which I'll admit I'm not really into. We'll see. They're committing to not employing FOMO with it, whatever that looks like, so I'm hoping it'll be the first battle pass system that doesn't ruin a game for me (assuming it is one.)
ZOJJA IS BACK!! FINALLY!! I'm excited about her return. She's been on the bench for so long. I hope they talk about her feelings about everything up to now. She had a personal stake in everything and it's a shame she had to sit it out.
I look forward to revealing more over the next couple weeks. Is there anything you're excited for? Anything you're worried about?
