In part 3 there's a somewhat cryptic message somewhat hidden right at the end.
I got the screen shots to show you, in order:






Just figured I'd point that out.

There's also a cryptic message in the 4th part. but it's far harder to grab a screen shot of.
I'll keep trying but so far I can only tell that the first flash says "dismantle" then the next flash is a symbol I don't recognize; a sword being held upwards.Then next flash is another symbol I don't recognize; a sword pointing downwards not being held.

Is it just me or is a large part of GW2 going to have something to do with the white mantle and some other apposing force?

Or is it the Shadow Army in FoW?

Oh and nice one on 1 April Ish. GW2 only has 2 video traliers. ^^

This wasn't an April fools joke.
It was posted before April and you clearly ignored the videos this thread is about.
Yes, GW2 has two trailers, but it has four concept art videos, links to which were posted by Talia on this thread, check them out.


Perhaps, but I would think it more likely that they were the White Mantle, as they were a key element of the Prophecies campaign

Looks like they are trying to make some sort of a White Mantle propaganda viral or something along that line, which is kind of cool, only that the feel might not be right for a fantasy setting like the world of Guild Wars.

I'd really love to see how this unfolds. A storyline with an epic finale; it is always good to start off with the lesser evils and from there, develop to greater problems eg. the Dragons and their Army.

Off topic: Concept drawings of Asuran Warrior and Charr Babies!

I have to say, I was really hoping they'd make Asurans a class that doesn't use melee, just like the Norns don't use magic. (or well, at least conventional spell casting, not sure what you'd call the bear form thing)

I know this comes under a slightly different context but looking at the videos of gameplay, e.g. the skills casting, I think GW2 will end up being a great format for machinima like the CV project of FotC, the detail is beautiful and their seems to be more fluidity.

I just found this on some dutch (?) website that shows 50 minutes of raw GW2 footage.

That's real pretty. I couldn't DL the whole thing but I got the idea, very nice!
