OLD LA BEST LA!! \o/

[@lSomeGuy367]

Correct :j (Can I get another invite to the discord?)

[@GW2Pseudo]

@@lSomeGuy367 Lol sure! 😄

[@JustGentle]

My god, this was such a nice trip down memory lane. I Forgot how amazing old LA looked back in the day.

[@GW2Pseudo]

This place exploded my tiny monkey brain honestly. Such beautiful design.

[@RobGale]

I was really bummed that there was no way to go back to the LA that existed when the game launched, and then they brought it back with the gizmo. So happy to be able to get back now, as this was such a beautiful zone with the nautical theme that they tied into the novels. The original Troll's End JP is there as well. Go explore the sewers too! BTW I think I read somewhere you can get people to join you with a TP to friend.

[@GW2Pseudo]

I think TP's work as well. It's definitely it's own map that's "somewhere" on the world map and not instanced. Just not accessible via it. & Re Exploring: def will do! 😄 I can't wait to see all of this beautiful map!!

[@amethystcloud8515]

This Zone is nuts with the details.

[@BeyondTheWall_Gaming]

Just a tad bit more charming than "concrete Sea World" I'd say.

[@GW2Pseudo]

Just a tad lol. Love your videos btw. Especially the mesmer cat

[@BeyondTheWall_Gaming]

@@GW2Pseudo Hey Thanks!

[@GW2Pseudo]

@@BeyondTheWall_Gaming No problem, it's good stuff!! You actually see a lot of "I now have a brief clone as a Warrior, Thief, etc. because I reflected a mesmer's attack in PvP actually. It's a really cool interaction that I wish they'd put somewhere on Mesmer's kit honestly. 😄

[@FlaxiEverafter]

I was there when they destroyed Lion's Arch. It was very emotional and something that no other MMO had ever done. I couldn't believe they actually DELETED the original LA and made a whole new LA.

[@GW2Pseudo]

At least they brought it back now. I just wish it was more accessible to current new / existing players. -_-

[@ShinsukeMoriya]

dinivity's reach's crown pavilion also were different on the launch of the game. the wiki has some screenshots but i don't think you can see that anymore

[@GW2Pseudo]

Huh. You're right. I guess they really did have to rebuild everything from scratch as the game went on.

[@greggyhaseyo0001]

Same happened to me when i was still starting the game few months ago but its in divinitys reach. I spent 4 hours talking to ramdom npc and evesdropping npc conversations. So love that moment and i think i converted to worship dwayna

[@littlebaby3782]

BEAUTIFUL

[@GW2Pseudo]

It really is.

[@windowpane]

When it first launched, every person in old LA shouted, OMG this is so cool. so many memories, I will use this instead of New LA. After some time has passed, every time I go there, it is empty

[@GW2Pseudo]

I think it's the no mounts thing and the fact that it's not on the main map. If it had mounts and was visible, but restricted I bet it'd had more prestige in people's eyes. :D

[@AresWuzHere]

thank you for taking me home again. I've missed this place. I recently visited EotM to show my bud where I used to level all my characters and had the same feels.

[@GW2Pseudo]

I was delirious and tired out of my mind when I got here. But even now I maintain that Pirate City is Best City.' 😄

[@giorgos_mark8401]

Just subscribed ur enthusiasm is amazing

[@GW2Pseudo]

Thanks & Welcome! 😄 I try to keep it upbeat.

[@Alex-rz4fg]

I know they were trying to keep it original. But I wish they updated it to have modern vendors and maybe give me my rested buff. So I could use this one over the new ones.

[@GW2Pseudo]

Or just enabled chair (and not traditional mounts, tho I would personally prefer the option for both.) -- Since they can clearly stratify those in places like Armistice Bastion -_-

[@bokan800]

Man, I remember this OG LA and then one day I logged in and it was the attack of LA in S1. I was like "oh cool, a live event happening in the town instance." Thinking that it was temporary and everything will be back to normal. Then they replaced it with Seaworld LA...

[@GW2Pseudo]

At least we got the OG Town (sort of) and event as an instance. And it only took 10 years -_-

[@wytchlight]

LWS1 led us to the destruction of old LA in the breachmaker attack that awoke Mordremoth

[@GW2Pseudo]

Indeed, they recently put S1 back in the game. Playing through all the story + achievements unlocks Old LA as a passkey. Which is how I got here for the first time after 10 years! 😄

[@pablorandur6970]

21:00 the red ring on the ground is ArenaNet logo in 3d, while the underwater monument is remnant from GW1's LA main square.

[@GW2Pseudo]

I actually didn't know what the underwater monument was when one of my friends asked me. So I'll be sure to relay the message. That makes a LOT of sense. 😆

[@Aereton]

@@GW2Pseudo I remember standing there where you swam by for hours just showing off my cool dyes and minis 16+ years ago lol damn it's underwater by the time of gw2 because of zhaitans rising causing a tsunami

[@danielivanov3251]

Hello!Great video as always! How to get invite to your guild?

[@GW2Pseudo]

You can either check us out and fill out the form here at: www.vanguardsofascension.com/recruitment OR Hop in to one of my streams M/W at 9pm est and ask to join there! (Basically I need to vet people one way or another.) And either the form or just talking to people usually does that pretty well I've found! 😁 Thanks for your interest! Let me know if I can help at all!!

[@KashimaShiro]

GW2 is really the best MMO out there it might not be the best in isolated aspects, but the whole package just comes together in the best possible way. Its full of "they didn't have to, but they did" details all around

[@GW2Pseudo]

Pretty much. I'm almost certain they had to reconstruct Old LA from scratch. And it's not like they *had* to re-release S1 for free, or at all. But they did!

[@cryhavok8257]

Well THANKS PSEUDO, now I HAVE to finish these 😂

[@GW2Pseudo]

Yup. No problem. It's what I'm here for lol 😄

[@coffeeScryer]

Very pretty zone c:

[@GW2Pseudo]

I don't have words for it.

[@Durin01]

I remember that I was taking a break back in the day and missed the 1st living world season. And when I came back Lions arch was changed. It was such a scarring and negative experience, because the old Lions arch is SOOOO much better that I quit the game for a long time after that.The The old city feeled like a dynamic organic lived in city. The new one seems sterile, fake and artificial. I mean where do the ppl even LIVE in the new city? where are the houses? It seems fake.

[@jrdougan]

The buildings in the north west corner appear to have living spaces. It is also the part that still looks like it is made of boats. I'm just not sure who thought a Brutalist Disneyland was a good idea.

[@GW2Pseudo]

​@@jrdougan"Brutalist Disneyland" is a great way to put it. I have to think they were chasing the game design trend at the time of "more big = better, even if it's open space." Partially due to the npc limit & partially due to the fact that Old LA literally had everyone crammed together in a great metaphor for how the races had come to coexist in Tyria, I just feel as though, seeing it now, new LA lacks a lot of the personality. 😅

[@jrdougan]

@@GW2Pseudo During the reconstruction of LA, there were workers pouring “concrete” and welding (what looked to me like) rebar. I’m not sure what else to call it. The Old LA was more crowded than that, even. People used to hang out in numbers and show off their fashions on the ledge in front of the bank. That has to have made servers and clients unhappy. I suspect new LA was a reaction to that.

[@alexandermarinin7036]

I like to decrease graphics settings to make the game more 2D-ish. It makes me feel like I'm inside paper printed graphic novel. There's lots of nice looking games, but GW2 has it's own style, and it's just beautiful

[@GW2Pseudo]

It explodes my brain that this game is 10 years old with how good it looks still too. 😄

[@Fissonfire]

I like the game so much and I play it from the release , but this guy eats to much mushroms :D

[@GW2Pseudo]

I wish. More like it was 5am and I was on a literal contact-high from experiencing this Zone for the first time in my GW2 career.' It's amazing.

[@itsAsphy]

You played 10 years and never been here? I am pretty sure I started around 10 years ago and only after maybe 1 year or so the new one came?

[@GW2Pseudo]

I should have put this in the video but it was 5am and I was delirious. When I started GW2 I was an MMO Baby and didn't understand that you need to get most of your gear from the p2p Trading post and not off vendors. I was also playing (or trying to play) core condi Mesmer, which was basically impossible this way. So the game was very slow for me & I thought "Well it's an MMO, WoW has grind this must just be how they are." So it was very slow-going. I was also starting University at the time, so by the time I actually "got to" LA it was the destroyed version. 😂

[@itsAsphy]

@@GW2Pseudo Ahh yeah that makes sense! I also realise what I said may come off as rude, I was just curious! I was also a MMO baby back then, I completely understand C:

[@GW2Pseudo]

@@itsAsphy Lol nah you good. 😁 It was a completely fair question!
