Guild Wars 2 has been more or less concealed in a shroud of mystery since its initial announcement last year, but most GW players have simply enjoyed the Eye of the North expansion and kind of waited patiently for more word on the elusive sequel. However, Destructoid has just recieved word from an internal source that the Guild Wars team will be proudly unveiling the character art for Guild Wars 2 later this week.
Supposedly the unveil will take place in-game, but the team was tight lipped about any further information. As the source asked to be kept private, we can only post this as a rumor, but it's sure to set a fair share of Guild Wars players wondering what is coming next, if anything. It certainly is past due, if it is true. While Guild Wars has enjoyed a smaller following than that king of MMOs, World of Warcraft, the fanbase certainly is a dedicated one. Would you be excited to see new Guild Wars 2 previews, or are all MMOs more of the same to you?

I wish that more mainstream games like the World of Warcraft would borrow a page or two from the the Guild Wars playbook.
I like that their client is easy to get and you only have to download areas you enter for the first time. Great game.
Eve, I dunno about eve. It might be good, but it doesn't seem like the kindda game that's kind to new players. At least some of the stories I've heard leads me to believe if you haven't played Eve since day 1 you don't have a chance to do anything remotely interesting, but I haven't tried so maybe it's just me.
It's basic science.
I still have to finish Eye of the North, though. Especially since a friend of mine said that I'm just two main quests away from the ending.
Awesome, I regret to say this but you got much further into EotN then I ever did, it's release coincided with me starting college, so I was kinda busy for a while. Now that I'm in the groove I think I can afford to sink some hours back in. Maybe
I'll even fulfill my ambition of getting the Legendary Defender of Ascalon title, I've never been able to devote the 700-1000 hour effort in the past.
For the record, I think claiming this game is 'Subscription free', but then releasing a new game to spend your money on every 6 months, you might as well just say, it will cost you 10 bucks a month to keep up, and call it a subscription. But then I think the tag line probably helped its sales immeasurably, so who am I to point the finger.
