I’ve really been enjoying the personal storyline of Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns, which is interesting because for as long as I’ve played GW2, I’ve never finished the main storyline of the “vanilla” game on any of my characters. Yet, HoT feels a lot more engaging in this respect; I find the story interesting and fun, and this has made me want to push further along with it. Not to mention, too, that advancement in the story does require certain masteries at certain points, and as such it encourages you to level them up between missions.

Anyway, this video here is a double-header that has two of the stories for the Auric Basin zone: The Predator’s Path and Strange Observations. The first quest is fairly straightforward, though fun (I loved the holographic messages you find as you explore the jungle), but the second one really leaves us with a bit of a cliffhanger: the discovery of a possible “lost” Asuran city deeper into the jungle (guess where we’ll be going next, hmmm?). Whether this Rata Nova will help us understand more about Mordremoth or not will remain to be seen, but things are certainly heating up it seems!

Enjoy, and don’t forget to subscribe!
