Hi everyone, thanks for your heartfelt words💟 I'm glad to hear that the song has touched you. It was an absolute joy creating the music then the video with Maclaine and the director Jon, and it's a gift to share in your grief musically, whether in-game or apart from it-or both. Thank you for welcoming me to the GW2 community!
The audio department within ArenaNet are talented as heck and us players have known about it for a long time. But A World Without You was just so far above and beyond what any of us I think were expecting... sweet and heartfelt and such an amazing way to cap off a really well done expansion for a game we've adored for a decade now. Thank you.
AAAAAAAAA Now that I got that out of my system. I'm a vet from Guild Wars 1 and a proud Luxon (kudos to those who know what I mean). I've seen Ascalon City fall from Adelbern's hubris, fought against Abbadon's rise in Vabbi, slew Shiro the Betrayer alongside Kuunavang, aided Jora in her quest for redemption, even stood alongside Gwen Thackeray, Vekk, Livia and Ogden Stonehealer. Started a new adventure to slay Zhaitan, Mordremoth, Balthazar, Palawa Joko, Kralkattorik, Primordus and Jormag to only end Soo-Won's misery and bring about a new cycle's birth, the Age of Aurene, the Prismatic Dragon. Lost too many friends and allies along the way. Eir, Trahearne, Tybalt, Almorra. I'm still living to honor your memories. You're stars in the night sky. I hope you can see this from the Hall of Heroes, where you deserve to be.
I can't recall ever crying while playing a videogame; nothing ever moved me that much. Until yesterday when I beat End of Dragons and this song played during the credits. So fitting an end of era theme and gripping your soul. Just wow!
The emotional weight this music gave to the end of End Of Dragons was something I was not prepared for. I wouldn't have imagined feeling such strong emotions playing a MMORPG. Congratulations for your nomination for Best Original Song at Audiogang Awards, it's totally deserved! :)
I didn't expect to see an actual music video, but this song truly deserves it. The rainbow hue and the landscape makes the song even more magical. We will die all alone, we live alone most of the time in our heads, but the aspect of creating bonds and friendships in the world is the greatest gift we can give each other.
@Orcaluv26Responding after a long while, but I meant that death, even with people we love near us, is still a lonely experience - feeling ourselves pass away, a mind sending the final signal that it's a second away from death - that's a thing we can experience only by ourselves.
When i heard this song at the end of the expancion I literally cried. I almost never cry from media, but the amount of emotions that was given to me by this song owerwhelmed me. The fear for future, unsure about tomorrow, yet willing to face all the trials that our actions brought to this world to survive... This is nothing but amazing. Thank you for the video!🥰
What a voice. I hadn't even played the game and it made my way into my Spotify playlist and has since overtaken the top spot on this year's most-played list and I couldn't be happier. I binged the hell out of this song and I'm not even remotely tired of it yet. I'll keep on listening.
Holy moly, at first i didnt know what song this was until she started singing and the tears kept rolling instantly. Its good we didnt know the song before this epic ending of EoD, now it feels the same like the first epic song Dont fear this night. It really gives me that thick throat like, it gives you FEELINGS. And those are strong. Thank you for this
This song was such a wonderful surprise at the end of the expansion! It brought me to tears which a game hasn't done in a long time so you totally deserve the win!
It was the perfect end to a fairly bittersweet story. And this song sounds like it comes from Aurene. The last of her kind, left with the responsibility of learning to keep the world in balance... Alone.
I just finished the expansion a few days ago and I've been listening to this almost on loop ever since, it's so good and the EMOTIONS it evokes is amazing!
Maclaine and crew did an unbelievable job with the eod soundtrack. Seriously one of the best soundtracks I’ve ever heard. Also, this is an awesome music video! It’s a surprise, but a welcome one!
This needs all the views! Thank you for such a fantastic song for the game we all cherish. Was absolutely jaw dropping when it played during the end credits.
Absolutely stunning - The soundtrack had multiple songs that made me just stop playing and listen while taking in the scenery. The emotional power this song has in amplifying the game when it came on for me - *chefs kiss*
I had quit GW2 for about 5 years until recently and only finished EoD now. But damn this reminded me that GW2 has some incredible music. Absolutely love the song!
Many thanks for this wonderful performance! I am sure that hundreds of thousands of people have experienced many wonderful moments with your beautiful voice! Bravo to Maestro Maclaine Diemer!
Beautiful & depending on what is happening in each of our lives, an even more personally meaningful impact. Considering what is happening in our world, so much man made brutality, in addition to Mother Nature's impact, it makes this song, appearing here now, all the more heartbreaking, moving...
I finished EoD a little bit after my grandmother passed so this song really hit hard. Especially “there’s never been a world without you” because in my eyes there hasn’t. Thank you for this beautiful song
Man... I just finished EoD story and i was so emotional, i had to look for something else to hold on to. Thanks for this amazing music and thanks anet for the incredible storytelling.
After waiting for the vinyl release and getting to the very end of the album, hearing this (and now seeing the video) had such an impactful catharsis upon me. I am truly touched by the beauty and spirit imbued into the score
They way we think of aurene and soowon, as protector and saints of good is how all other dragon minions also see their respective elder dragons with such passion. Feels very cult like, as if we are so deep into soowon and aurene’s influence that we worship them as god, not realizing we are actually corrupted by them :o
I don't remember hearing this in the game? (I might have missed it) I love it though, glad I'm hearing it now, very emotional. I wonder if it's foreboding the end of Aurene considering the lyrics and the prismatic rainbow effects, or perhaps (and more likely) soo-won.

One of the best songs in GW2, right alongside Don't Fear This Night.
Beautiful song

Oh, this works very well, this scene could be Nevan crying at the ocean just as much as someone in Earth about someone they lost.
You right, in game/anime style with navan version,
when i heard it at the end- goosebumps
This is beautiful.
This song was such a wonderful surprise at the end of the expansion! It brought me to tears which a game hasn't done in a long time so you totally deserve the win!

Oh God this is so beautiful.
It was the perfect end to a fairly bittersweet story.
And this song sounds like it comes from Aurene. The last of her kind, left with the responsibility of learning to keep the world in balance... Alone.

Maclaine and crew did an unbelievable job with the eod soundtrack. Seriously one of the best soundtracks I’ve ever heard. Also, this is an awesome music video! It’s a surprise, but a welcome one!

Perfection!

I'm excited for my vinyl of this soundtrack to arrive - this soundtrack and especially this piece is amazing
Nice to know the song has the MV it deserves
Yessss, I've wanted something like this for so long! Such a great song to one of my favorite games, and my favorite expansion
Very beautiful =D
congrats!
I love how their outfit and hairstyle resembles Joon
The two first letters and the two last letters of her full name...
❤❤❤❤❤
They way we think of aurene and soowon, as protector and saints of good is how all other dragon minions also see their respective elder dragons with such passion. Feels very cult like, as if we are so deep into soowon and aurene’s influence that we worship them as god, not realizing we are actually corrupted by them :o
Im not playing GW2 anymore but still this song hits the feels so beautiful
❤
I don't remember hearing this in the game? (I might have missed it) I love it though, glad I'm hearing it now, very emotional. I wonder if it's foreboding the end of Aurene considering the lyrics and the prismatic rainbow effects, or perhaps (and more likely) soo-won.
It plays during the end credits of EoD. I interpret the lyrics as Aurene singing to Soo-Won.
@@Netum6am or Navan.
It's like seeing aurene for first time and she is ancient dragon 🚶🏻♂️🤍🤍🤍
Aurene...
well.. that's an insta sub.
now, don't turn into a dragon just yet
👊🤓
