I am glad they tinkered with Rytlock's voice - the deeper, more gravelly/growly voice he has now just fits better for a grumpy/angry Blood Legion Tribune.
I feel really lucky right now. I had never heard of this game before yesterday, and I'm super glad, cause I would have gone insane waiting for it for that long!!!
Lol I've never been in to MMOs, so I always passed up any mention of them. But this one fixes 90% of my problems with MMOs!!! I'm excited :) And yes, I know I probably should have checked out Guild Wars 1, but I didn't have any money before this summer, nor a decent computer. Now I have both.
Ahh. I remember that trailer. I stopped playing GW2 not too long after releaase but I was very excited about every bit of news coming out. Most people who play GW2 nowadays probably weren't there when they were releasing these bits of information. People were really busy with analysing these trailers and speculating. What is that jumping character 1:32? Could that be a new Assassin class? Now we obviously know it's a Thief, but no one knew. Would it be playable by players? No one knew.
Just watched the “Giving a Voice to Tyria” video again and was like “they had to have been using that audio for a trailer, right?” Lo and behold, here it is. Now I can get the rest of the lines!
These were the alpha sylvari designs and they were scrapped before beta. After beta, they got refined again into what you see today. These early models did not glow like the current ones do.
IMO Asuras, Humans, Sylvaris and Norns look all quite the same when dressed in armors and all a bit boring, nothing what makes them really special or different from the rest, ok, Norns are huge and Asuras are small, that`s all, but that`s why I like Charrs, they look and behave completely different even in armors, for me Charrs are always winners when it comes to fashion-wars, and real Charr fans in-game are all a bit different from the rest, not that bad either - why can`t I create a Centaur, Tengu, Oger or Ettin for instance ?
Caithe's model was that of the old design from the time of cut content and redesign like Rata Sum, It's a shame I really prefer the previous version of Sylvari even if it lacks the plant like look, its more beautiful and elegant kind of like wood elves. I'm pretty sure we'll have more Sylvari players if it was the older design.
Just think all the story to this game was written or mostly written by Jessica Price who ended up getting fired do to worker rights / sexism in the video game industry reasons. Oh wait she was fired for her toxic behavior towards other people, to the the games player base and because she celebrated the death of someone who died from cancer.
Has the mechanics to be the best mmo ever, however it turned into the most painstackingly boring game ive ever played. If mashing 5 buttons in quests that are simpler than games like rift and wow sound appealing to you, then go play.
This trailer got released 9 years ago and it still gives me goosebumps to this day. I love it. ;-;
And I'm here 5 yrs later.
Caithe then v. Caithe now.... WAT. WAT. WAT.
It's really fun looking at all the past trailers. I get a swell of emotion and joy watching these even now. :D
I am glad they tinkered with Rytlock's voice - the deeper, more gravelly/growly voice he has now just fits better for a grumpy/angry Blood Legion Tribune.
Augh Rytlocks part makes me want to make more charr characters haha
1:38 everytime. 9 years later and this trailer still gets me in the feels.
I always wind back many times for the Char. I love the voice,I love the voice actor. A voice so calm but intimidating is a piece of art.
first time I actually watch this. Damn Caith changed a lot! hah
I feel really lucky right now. I had never heard of this game before yesterday, and I'm super glad, cause I would have gone insane waiting for it for that long!!!
any sugestion 11 years later?
1:38 Kills the charr part , its all Goosebumpy and cool and then you hear strentgth is nothing without wisdom xD Kills it
yep, the whole race underwent a heavy redesign in the late stages of the game. properbly becuase they were too much of the generics elves
my story is I suck at planning and getting friends killed because im the Pact Commander xD
Asuras are so adorable they are like little ninjas small but deadly :)
Sylvari voices are so mesmerizing! Let me listen all day!
Not only Caithe, the all sylvari look's different
Caithe in this was before they knew what they wanted Sylvari to be like. So yeha she has changed lol.
"Faith is your weakness human"
This is the day I watch this video for the 1st time.
Lol I've never been in to MMOs, so I always passed up any mention of them. But this one fixes 90% of my problems with MMOs!!! I'm excited :)
And yes, I know I probably should have checked out Guild Wars 1, but I didn't have any money before this summer, nor a decent computer. Now I have both.
do you still play it

This video makes me so sentimental...
today a played the game for the firts time...
Caith looking like she's going to speak to Zhaitan's manager
i can see they have been changed a little
So happy the did a remodel of Caith. She looks nothing like how her race does
2:15 I still think this is a radio
what do you mean?
Still so good 😍
youtube recommendation is god tier.
Just watched the “Giving a Voice to Tyria” video again and was like “they had to have been using that audio for a trailer, right?” Lo and behold, here it is. Now I can get the rest of the lines!
Holy hell this teaser came out in 2009. WTHHHH. Have I really been waiting for this game THAT long?
How Rytlock have changed
He was bald
where are those sylvari faces and hairstyles? :P
These were the alpha sylvari designs and they were scrapped before beta. After beta, they got refined again into what you see today. These early models did not glow like the current ones do.
So rythlock change job from warrior to revenant
Yep, it's explained in the story.
March 2007 was the first announcement that GW2 (and GW:EN for that mater) were in the makes.
What is my story? My Story is Neverending!
Sylvari underwent major changes a year or two back so they look way different since Arena Net worked on Guild Wars 2.
I'm still waiting for the green people in the video around min 3.
gives me the chills! :D

They're Seraph weapons. The cultural vendors in Divinity's Reach outside the throne room sell them.
I can't wait to see them all in game.Zojja!!!!!
I don't know if I'd call you lucky. Living under that rock couldn't have been fun.

On official facebook page,they have added on a photo,this video with some others so maybe that's why the comments :p
It's been a long time. I remember when they said beta would be out by the end of 2009 or 2010.

Caithe's model was that of the old design from the time of cut content and redesign like Rata Sum, It's a shame I really prefer the previous version of Sylvari even if it lacks the plant like look, its more beautiful and elegant kind of like wood elves. I'm pretty sure we'll have more Sylvari players if it was the older design.
second. lol kidding. anyways ya was kinda surpise too know one else comment of this video since it came out 3 years ago.
Just think all the story to this game was written or mostly written by Jessica Price who ended up getting fired do to worker rights / sexism in the video game industry reasons.
Oh wait she was fired for her toxic behavior towards other people, to the the games player base and because she celebrated the death of someone who died from cancer.
you do know that she was employed a month after pof realesed right ?
"all the story" lol, how did you come to believe something like that?
