War in Kryta
Overly, I'm still trying to see where the excitement with this thing is. Choose a side? Ok, where's the option? On facebook? Randomly throwing it out in local in-game? What about us who don't want to pick a side? Do we get that option? Or the "I'm better than all of you combined, excuse me while I purge you all from the land" option.

I've heard so much talk about how this War is bringing people back to the game, Arenanet have said it's generating interest and getting people to remind their friends, if they're returning, that there are new security features. A war that takes a break over the weekend doesn't seem like it has enough might to do what I think a lot of people are saying. Most people I know think it's stupid: "well, we already know who wins", same with Gwen and Thackeray.

New Costumes? Most likely.

New quests - one would bloody hope so. Long last content... not likely. Once the White Mantle get kicked out of LA, the peacekeepers go (they're kinda funny cos some guy was complaining in LA this morning about them "but heeeeey, guys, I picked Dismantle... why are they attacking me????????") because they're no longer needed. Flags in LA change... HOPEFULLY, they'll open up a bit more of LA, like out the back where the Guild Registar is. People have also been saying/hoping for new PvP content.... wtf? they just got Codex which was a SMASHING success.... wait, I'm being told by my lawyer to remove that last comment.

I don't know... maybe I'm just a picky bitch, but nothing yet has been done that's made me go ... "Wow! That was exciting!"

Oh, and the Trial? Two things: someone at Arenanet has too much time on their hands, or they need to really get laid.

References are all well and good but overloading the script with them... and then leaving people standing in the trial area going "Oh, ok... I haven't left... what do I do now? Map out?  Normally it kicks you out... but it's not so there must be coming left... or maybe I did something wrong.... no... that's it?????  Really?!" is not good. Again, I've seen modding groups come up with better. And that don't get paid for their work!
