Month: August 2020

2020 has been a hell of a year so far! Lockdowns, Riots, No Baseball, No voices in two episodes of Guild Wars 2, the list can go on! There’s one thing that is good so far is that i am able to turn 40 and know i can celebrate with family and friends.

So you gotta ask yourself “what is it like to be 40?” Well for one thing you know you are old as fuck when you are about at as old as PACMAN! Empire Strikes Back, Airplane, and Caddyshack were in theaters! As for movies themselves it cost an average of $2.69 which these days you are lucky to even find a $2 theater with good movies. Hell because of covid new movies are streamable on day 1 of release but at high cost! Bill and Ted’s latest movie came out yesterday and cost $19.95 to watch it.

Gas prices are decent at least right now. Currently $1.82 and it was $1.19 back then. Problem with fuel prices it changes so often it can be really high or really low! Highest i remember paying is about $3.25 while the lowest i ever payed was back when i 1st started driving in 1996 when the price per gallon was 98 cents!

So what’s in store for the next 10 years? I hope to be in a new home by then. I am actually working on that now. It’s time to get out of the condo/apartment life and live in a real home. I hope to find a girl too and maybe have a kid. Who knows!? I may be single the rest of my life! Either way I am doing well and hears to another 60 years!

Today is the 8th anniversary of Guild Wars 2 and what a way to celebrate with the announcement of their next expansion “End of Dragons”

This March, we revealed that work has begun on a third Guild Wars 2 expansion. We’ve now prepared a surprise to celebrate Guild Wars 2‘s eighth anniversary.

Ancient voices reflect on Tyria’s history—and its future. Watch and listen…

I for one am excited to learn of this! I was always a fan of Guild Wars: Factions when that came out as the Expansion for the 1st game. The idea behind the ongoing battle between the Kurzicks and the Luxons was unique and a testing ground for what we have now as World vs World as well as Drizzlewood Coast.

What’s in store for this latest expansion? not sure yet since this was just a teaser. Judging by the video we will revisit cantha 200 years later. I predict there will probably be a new mount based on that region and may need a special license to use it elsewhere. As for a new class they will probably reintroduce the assassin which is technically a thief but more skilled in weapons. There may be a new weapon that any class can learn but with a different skill set to make things more interesting. These are just my thoughts of what are to be. Will know if my predictions come true as soon as more information is released in the next few months.
