ArenaNet Interview Part 1 | OnlineWelten
OnlineWelten have just put up the first part of a fantastic interview with ArenaNet’s Ree Soesbee and Eric Flannum. Some very well chosen questions that will answer many of the more common questions regarding lore, and even some touching on gameplay issues.
The interview dives right in with what is by far the most pressing question on the mind of our community: Will there be female charr in Guild Wars 2?
Ree Soesbee: There certainly are female charr in GW2. In the history of the charr, the women were once strong warriors, as respected as the males. However, when the Flame Legion took over and tried to unify the race, one of their methods of forcibly pacifying the other legions was to refuse combat training to female charr. During this dark time, females had to train in secret, passing techniques down by word of mouth and suffering horrible penalties – even death – if they were caught using weapons or fighting in battles.
For the rest of that story and a whole heap of other Guild Wars 2 information hit the links below. If you want to discuss the interview, make your way to Tr0n’s thread, here.
