First one is, because I heard about the new addon here in the fediverse first, before I even saw the announcement on the official website. Nice to see, that the fediverse, especially its content aggregators at the moment, is growing and some specific gaming content is arriving. :D
And the second one is of course the announcement of the addon itself. Looks pretty nice. Looking forward to the new story and new maps and the skyscale improvements sound nice. And I'm happy to see that legendary armor will be accessible to non raiders. The changes in the weapon system sound interesting, too, but I hope they get the balancing right. I mean, there was a reason that you couldn't use every weapon of every elite specialization. On the other hand this could lead to some cool new synergies and builds. Not sure though which weapons I'm going to combine with my mesmer main. :D
GW2 is a completely different game from the first one. No GvG, no RA, no more incredibly complex builds from combining two classes. I loved GW1 and really wished GW2 was “GW1, but you can jump now.”
I wish they updated some of the visuals like other MMOs often do after many years. I like GW2 and gameplay still works well, but it looks so dated compared to other MMOs that refreshed most of their stuff.
