Once again a website Arenanet trusted with advance information leaked a profession before it was time. The official reveal of will be Wednesday. The leaked video was pulled but not before some one was able to make a copy and put it on YouTube.

I'll post link to the official site Wednesday. Finally they picked a day I have off from work.

Thanks Guybrush....I'll look forward to it.

Its probably going to be late, my work schedule has changed, I now have to work tomorrow.

Ashenfold Cartel Interview with Jeff Grubb and Eric Flannum!

Guild Wars 2 Brasil Interview with Guild Wars 2 Lead Game Designer Eric Flannum

Wow, somebody was up early in Seattle. For this reveal you want to go to the Guild Wars 2 main page first. I had to reload it several times before the new content would show up. After listening to the bad music, click on the big text for a surprise. Then click on it again.

First 8th profession interview

There is so much goodness in there

Closed Beta begins Friday. Its only for those people Arenanet has chosen to take part and they'll have to accept a non-disclosure agreement. Arenanet will make a decision about open beta testing later.

Oh, an elite mesmer skill turns enemy into a moa bird with moa bird skills. Making them less a threat to the mesmer.

Oh how fun! Progress is being made

Link Roundup: The Mesmer

After seeing this I'm thinking norn mesmer

Thanks Guybrush, every time I see the art it is fantastic!

Don't believe any web site or emails claiming to have Guild Wars 2 beta test sign up form. Because the current CLOSED beta is by invitation only no sign up form. When Arenanet is ready to do an open beta, it will be posted at guildwars2.com. That's only sight you can trust.

Thanks for the reminder Guybrush....

The Minstrel GW2 joke profession is gone from the Guild Wars 2 page but somebody captured it and put it on You Tube for anyone who missed it.

Thanks Guybrush

Guild Wars 2 Year End Development Update

In case you missed it, in one interview Arenanet mentioned that they already have two expanions in mind. Most GW fans assume they will be related to the other two continets Cantha and Elona. Makes sense to me, but only Arenanet designers knows for sure. In the mesmer announcement they left room for potentionally adding more professions with the expansions. Lot of people assume they'll add new races too, mostly like the bird-men Tengu, who apparently already have a city in GW2 would be one. There's some interest concept art for tengu. Not sure I'd want to play a character with a parrot head though.

I thought that year end round up was it for the year from Arenanet, so I wasn't checking their page, I was mistaken.
