The final Guild Wars 2 concept art slideshow is finally out, and ArenaNet finished up with a bang. Monsters, armor/clothing, and landscapes were the theme of this video, with the camera panning across some truly breathtaking locations both above and below the sea and enough creature images to qualify as a bestiary. While the last video seemed to focus more on details, this one contains plenty of long, sweeping views that give us an overall view of areas that are becoming very familiar to us. The distinct look and feel of each of the five races has become more apparent with each round of art released, and it's fairly easy to identify what we're looking at in that respect.
While we know the focus is mainly on the art, we'd be amiss in not giving a nod to those who added the music and sound effects. These added a dimension to each slideshow that became very apparent during the brief technical difficulties of the second video. We -- and the Guild Wars community -- say thanks to the amazing talent behind the art, animations, video, and music given in these four slideshows.
Follow along after the jump to see for yourself. As with the last slideshow, it couldn't hurt to watch all the way to the end. Just in case.< br/>
This Spring and Summer are going to suck since NO NEW MMO's are going to be out :( This looks great but when will it be released? 2011 or 2012? I'm surprised there is such a HUGE in the mmo market atm.
I agree! I'm so tired of all these mmo's advertising their game that will not be out until 2011 or 2012. There is nothing going on this spring or summer, nothing.
Yeah nothing new this year. Maybe even the competition did not imagine that the games launched in the last quarter of 2009 and first quarter of 2010 (may their names remain not spoken, people already know them) will fail so bad. I think the level of fail of the latest hyped MMOs surprised everybody. 2010 will be a sad MMO year :(
...I am etheir interpretating this exercise as only concept art shown because there is no actual tangible content to GW2 as of yet, hense vaporware...with a alot of pretty pictures. Or they are trying to cryptically hint what we're in store for in regards to content they wish to eventually release. I say the last part because that's how they introduced their game footage video a few months back...which kinda dispells the former and gives me hope with the latter.
