In Guild Wars 2, ArenaNet has now compiled a “Summary of Events”. This aims to help players get started with the expansion “Heart of Thorns”, even if they have never played Guild Wars 2 before or missed parts of the interconnected story along the way.
It is not easy to follow the story of Guild Wars 2. The first season of the Living Story is currently not playable, and the narrative groundwork for what happened in the second season has already been laid here. The second season was then told episodically in the style of the current US series hits: one episode built on the previous one.
And what happened overall in the second season of Guild Wars 2 now serves as the basis for the expansion “Heart of Thorns”.
To avoid feeling like you discovered “Game of Thrones” only in the fourth season, having no idea who is who, the folks at ArenaNet have kindly summarized the story in a blog post. This way, we learn about Scarlet Briar and everything she has initiated. And in the end, you know why so much mistrust is directed towards the Sylvari with Heart of Thorns.
Here is the blog post from ArenaNet. We have already presented a video that spectacularly presents the story of Briar, complemented by great visuals and music.
