Elona, the Crystal Desert and Palawa Joko - Guild Wars Lore Recap

[@gamereyemd7264]

I have never played Nightfall and have read (and watched) extensively all sources in preparation to PoF. But man, your video is very well made, even for the parts before Nightfall and GW1. Explains a lot so well that none other have done before. Thanks! A definite must watch for everyone about to play PoF! :)

[@Laranity]

That's so good to hear!

[@MelonRoulette]

I can not believe I just found this in 2021!! what a gem. It makes me understand a lot more about PoF and the places there. Can't wait for another recap when EoD comes out xD

[@SrebX7]

This video is beyond great. I'm a gw2 veteran and I've been trying to learn about the lore, this video has completely enhanced my understanding and I thank you for it! The graphical visualization and the old gw1 instances really made it more clear, ESPECIALLY the map connection between the gw1 and gw2 maps. This has been great! I just want to note 2 things: One is I'd love it if you took a bit more time to introduce characters rather than just throwing names, because I'd often lose the narrative feeling like so much has happened in 5 seconds worth of video, and I would very mcuch appreciated it even more if you elaborated about the Branded and the Elder dragon who's name I can't spell :P This is a lore video, it's targeting certain audience and this audience loves info, so don't ever be afraid to make a long video [So many ppl watch WP's 30~40 minute long videos. You're good.) Thanks again! I'm gonna sub if you'll put out more videos like this

[@Laranity]

Thank you so much for the kind words and the feedback! Now that I think about it, I totally agree about introducing the characters more extensively. My initial goal was to make this video under 10 minutes, but I'm definitely dropping that for the next one.

[@fonepixie]

I agree , i didnt get the chance to play GW1... only been on GW2 for 4 years.. so its lovely to finaly understand the back story and how it all came to be, thanks for this!

[@SteezyMcDude]

Great, informative video with a healthy dose of GW1 nostalgia. Subbed!

[@DonutSurfingTheInternet]

I very much enjoyed this. Great coverage of the lore. We need more of these!

[@torin23]

This is making me so nostalgic for Nightfall. Thanks for the video!

[@zacharyh.4662]

Nightfall was great! I also really love the detail and care they put into all the little Easter eggs and nods to it in PoF. Well done.

[@ColdMystery]

Finally I understand the lore of the crystal desert. I haven't played GW1 and now things I see in GW2 make sense to me.

[@LordHizen]

watching this video remind me of gw2 when i start it at 2004 cant wait for path of fire and hope we can see the 6 gods :D thank you mate for this video

[@aurriannamistwalker8704]

[@michelleolson6424]

I used to Roam around The Crystal Desert back in the Day too an am excited to do so again.

[@vasilisplay6058]

Very helpful video! Keep the comming!

[@Laranity]

Will do, thank you for watching!

[@bob_kaetan]

Good to know the history of the place we are going into. I've never played GW1, so this video is quite useful for me. Thanks :>

[@Laranity]

Glad it was useful! I hope it was somewhat easy to follow :)

[@elosy_the_thoughtless]

Same, thanks!

[@Demsus]

Good work man! was some amusing stuff :D

[@NJ8991]

[@thanhlengoc3805]

Are we going to have another lore recap? I love this series

[@Kyosika]

[@Katzenweitwurf]

Why do I find this only now? xD ty so much, silver

[@ajpu6221]

Amazing vid!!

[@deathclaim9230]

[@kennethnielsen4264]

Hi man, you, your guild and your videos are awesomes, and i should like to know... ¿Wich program do you use for edit your videos?

[@Laranity]

Thank you so much! I use Adobe Premiere to edit.

[@DrFoxyNation]

Good job !

[@askaidda4118]

wooden potatoes contest?

[@CazaliEiben]

And in the end, Arenanet will bring in another bad plot twist, making a fight against Palawa Joko in two stages: One as undead and one as branded. Since he can't be destroyed as an undead, they need to turn him into something else.

[@feyberry131]

Cazali Eiben Ahaha nope

[@CazaliEiben]

It could still happen in the living story season 4.

[@fernandonovosad4533]

that would be brilliant though

[@higueraft571]

Oh, he certainly *was* turned into something else it seems... Dragon Snack(tm)

[@CazaliEiben]

@@higueraft571 Yeah and (as I predicted) another bad plot twist. Just like everything since LS3.

[@losse3471]

I want to know what the something else is now. Smart tactic.

[@AungWinHtut]

Thank you.

[@viaxon6]

And now compare it to the Guild Wars 2 plot... There's a dragon! Dragon is slained Another dragon! Dragon is slained NEXT TWO DRAGONS AND A CHARACTER FROM GW1

[@AlgaInventory]

viaxon6 And a human god's gone mad!! ;-)

[@joaquim4553]

I love all the gw lore, but I am kind of burned already from gw2

[@andrewmeyer3599]

You aren't the only one. Recently Anet has really been dropping the ball when it comes to being consistent with its lore. They've hammered it into out heads that the Elder Dragons cannot be killed but then after that we kill 2 more. People have started to completely disregard the lore and story now because so much is constantly being ignored or written out

[@lordspotato5032]

I’m from the future :’)
