Official Guild Wars 2 Blog

In another sign that GW2 is getting closer to release, ArenaNet have just launched their Official Guild Wars 2 blog and it's got the GW2 Blog Krewe here VERY excited!

While we're really looking forward to blogging about the game from a player's perspective, ArenaNet's blog is going to be a fantastic source of Guild Wars 2 information as it will be coming straight from the horse's mouth so to speak. From behind the scenes where the developers, artists and story-writers get their heads together and work to build GW2 into the BEST MMORPG ever!

Reading through ArenaNet Studio Head Mike O'Brien's first blog entry, he outlines some of the thinking behind the gameplay, the direction GW2 will be taking and how the designers are striving to make Guild Wars 2 more SOCIAL and more FUN to play... from moment to moment!

Here's a quote I really liked...

"GW2 doesn't fall into the traps of traditional MMORPGs. It doesn't suck your life away and force you onto a grinding treadmill; it doesn't make you spend hours preparing to have fun rather than just having fun; and of course, it doesn't have a monthly fee."

What's not to like about that?!

Now I could quote all day but my advice is to head on over to the Official Guild Wars 2 Blog and make sure you bookmark it!

OK, OK... One last quote from Mike before I go...

"As you're reading this, we're playing the game constantly, tweaking it and polishing it, adding more content, and getting it ready for you. In the end, this isn't just our game - we want it to be yours as well - and we can't wait to play it with you."

And THAT my friends is why the Guild Wars 2 Blog Krewe are VERY excited!
