Well we have a date for the first Beta
Weekend Event and it's April 27-29. I will be playing the entire
time, getting as many pictures (and hopefully video) as I can. Going
to stock up on easy make food, caffeine, and let my wife know that
while I may be here in person, my mind is on vacation.
I love this. Nothing makes me feel
like a kid again quite like when I lose myself to the excitement of a
new game. It doesn't happen that often for me, as I try not to buy
many new games, and honestly, few games do anything overwhelmingly
new to warrant the excitement. But Guild Wars 2 sure is doing it for
me.
There was a twitter post by MK saying
they'd let us know what content will be available for testing soon.
I wonder if we'll be extremely limited in the first test, then given
more room in future beta weekends. Whatever the case, as soon as I
know what's available, I'm going to set a game plan for coverage and
post it here. If there's anything you'd like to know about the game,
let me know in the comments and I'll do my best to cover it.
As far as what I'd like to see? Well
I'm very interested in the Sylvari race, being the nature loving guy
that I am. It would be nice to at least get to experience character
creation for all the classes so that I'm not spending an hour on each
race till I find the perfect look. And trust me, I will. Hopefully
I can create a guild in the beta and familiarize myself with the
guild tools. I'd like to focus on the top 3 professions that interest
me: Warrior, Elementalist, Warlock within the first 2 days, then on
the last day, I'd like to just explore, try out all the other classes
and answer any questions presented to me.
So yeah, I'm very excited to finally
play the game and looking forward to enjoying the childlike
experience of a shiny new toy. I'm turning 30 in May, but until
then, this guy is reverting back to 12. :)
