You can post the actual Profession Reveal(with the Skills) :D

About the In Game footage ;

+ Love how you "zoom out" when using the map.
+ The graphics have really improved.
+ Charr runs 4-legged <3
+ The "Orr set" dual Axes the Charr was using where awesome.
- Didn't like the Diablo-like health bubble.
+ Loved the Dynamic Event (Stone Elemental being summoned) in the Necromancer footage. Thats the kind of thing that will keep happening non-stop.
- Little worried about when he wen't to slay some Harpies. They said there would be no quest.

Man, I could go on. This game is freaking genius.I mean every single profession has a unique gameplay. Warrior's have Chains,Banners,Shouts , Elementalists have Attunements, Rangers have Pets and what not and now we learn Necromancers have some kind of "Life Force" system.

*Nerdgasm*
- love the UI, although I hope ANet will let us use 3rd party programs to change it like in WoW
- the graphics look beautiful
- combat seems a lot more fast paced. Even though you still have to select your target the person doing the demo was constantly moving around and could even cast while running.
- dynamic events look very cool
- I like that Charrs can run on 4 legs lol
- Also, it looks like they really upgraded the map.

Gameplay]
Ghostly Weapons glows at night, Ice weapons breaks and does dmg , Weapons that glows when ennemies are near....YES :D



First "Cinematic"
It show's they make them but at the end there's the actual cinematic.



Divinity's Reach In Game



Necromancer - Gamescon. (He's wearing the Noble attire) (You can choose your "financial" status)

Spoiler!


Character Creation
Love how as an Ele, you get to choose your favourite Element. Plus you get to choose if your Noble,Poor,etc.



Dye System
You get to dye several parts of a piece? Hell yeah

Spoiler!


Map
Spoiler!


Sorry for posting all this. I get really excited at GW2 News and just gotta share it with everyone I know.

Elementalist + Dagger style
Here's a perfect exemple of the new Skill System. You're 5 Skills are chosen by your Weapon and will differ depending on the class. Ele+Dagger is different than Ranger+Daggers.

This might be the first game where I'll buy the Collector's Edition. At this point, I'm already sold. Also GW2Guru gets to ask 10 Questions to A.Net 8) I've asked if "Will we reach Lv80 by simply playing the Storyline?". Hope it gets picked :D

Likewise. Beta Q4 2010 - Release Q1 2011 is the most believed speculation. They still have 4 Professions to reveal and PAX is comming this septermber. They also stated that the Beta would be really close to the release date.

I have Nightfall Collector's edition. Many little accessories you may never need but it's very nice to have them. :3 Bought it mainly since it was only (literally) 2 euros more expensive than the normal version.

First few months.
Quarter = Quarter of a year (businesses use each quarter to announce financials).
Usually - Q1 = January - March, Q4 = October - December.

I just laugh at these kind of players. They'll probably get some mediocre mini-pet.

I dunno everywhere I have read has pointed toward special gear that showcases your achievements in GW. Its really not hard to title grind most of them. The one that took me the longest was LDOA. You can speedbook a good amount. Took me longer to get all the prestige armor than anything else.

None of your gear or storage will get transfered though, you just get to reserve your character name, and hope for some nice starting gear. If you think your stacks of ecto are coming over...LOL

I stopped farming ecto and pretty much just do chest runs now. And Zaishen challenges.

I guess we will see what really goes down closer to launch when they announce what HoM will actually give you in GW2. I could really care less, but it would be nice. I just want to play GW2!

Maybe a Ghostly or Clockwork weapon. Then again, not too much of a fancy skin.

I would love to keep my Dhuum's Scythe, but I am sure there will be wayyyyyy sicker skins on GW2 weapons than pretty much anything in GW right now.
