Why are you waiting for, download it again and come play, there's even enhanched graphics, bigger bags, more chest room, 10 NEW elite skills and much more still waiting for you. :) ( Most play on America servers tough these days, but you would be amazed how alive this game still is after 17 years ).
Next ones: French, German, Italian, Korean, and Spanish -- they're all filmed, I just need to put 'em together. And the next ambience vid: The Deep. Nothing better than nostalgia, that's true :D
I’m half watching this for research and half watching it to relive my literal childhood (started playing this game when I was, like, 8), and am mildly amused by the timeline-breaking shenanigans that is having adult Gwen running around when we saw her literally-a-child self picking flowers not two years prior.
Been playing since May'05 (and still do). That serene first minute of cutscene; back then I had no idea It would be the best game I would ever play. Thousands of hours and 19 years later, GW1 still lives in my head rent-free.
@@michielankersmit8656 right! lol I still log on from time to time, Have a pre searing char just for collecting bday gifts lol over 10,000 hours played
The White Mantle twist was something that I never saw coming back then. The way they showed the Lich so early helped us see the Mantle as good guys until... they weren't.
can't thank you enough for these. i never played GW1 but i'm starting my journey through GW2. i was curious what the GW1 story was about, even if the stories between the two are pretty disconnected. still nice to know all the events and see all the areas i can visit in GW2. thank you so much!
@Liam Welcome aboard! I've been playing GW1 since the betas in 2004 and love meeting newcomers. If you have any lore questions or want a friend in either GW1 (if you give it a shot) or GW2, I'd be happy to help!
I'll upload the rest of the Factions vids soon -- real life kept me in its grip the past few weeks. Oh, and Nightfall will take some time. Twelve of its cinematics cannot be repeated by doing a mission or asking an NPC, so I'll have to replay Nightfall six times until "A Deal's a Deal" in the Desolation, once for each language. That's something I look forward to, because I love Nightfall ;) Just takes some time. Enjoy the Proph, Factions and EotN game movies in the meantime, happy you like them!
Thank you for this trip down memory lane, so many endless nights gaming and laughing with guildies! Years i miss but will never forget. Love the content!
Thanks for posting this. Apparently I have forgotten huge chunks of this game. I was thinking about going back to finishing a playthrough, but it doesn't look like there's a lot of people on anymore. Also it looked like you had a full group I'm not sure I've every run any mission of this game without heroes even back when there were a ton of players.
Absolute hero. I played this when it came out and just started playing guild wars 2 this week. Been sitting here like a Alzheimer's patient not remembering anything. Except lions arch
Rurik: "You have become proud, Adelbern of Ascalon. Proud and foolish!" Adelbern: "I'm about to end this squirt's career" On another note: that escalated quickly. Banished the moment his SON had a disagreement?
They had been arguing for a few yrs. Between pre-searing and that mission it had been 2yrs and before the searing rurik and his dad never agreed on how to stop the charr. Rurik had doubts about his father's rule but never argued till he realised how damaging their choices had been on the citizens or rinn and ascalon
OMG it was just last week that I was thinking about the need of something like a cinematic series with the story of GW and GW2, and was thinking about doing it in italian, for starters, and here I discover you! gonna binge some today!! loving it!
The opening cutscene for Prophecies is pure nostalgia for me. I love the premise of Pre-Searing so much! I find it interesting that music I associate with the Crystal Desert plays during the ending cutscene for Ruins of Surmia. Also, what's up with that human portal magic? It never comes up again in anything as far as I'm aware.
We see all kinds of portals in all GW1 campaigns, but this particular kind of magic isn't seen anywhere else, that's true -- quite fascinating if you ask me. The soundtrack, yes :) It's a wonderful fit. Many cinematics employ soundtracks from other regions, but the Ruins of Surmia truly stand out. The Crystal Desert theme is so perfect here :D
Thanks for putting this together! Despite enjoying my step into Guild Wars, the sequel is where I've made my home, so I thought I'd look up a video like this one to get caught up on the story of GW1 in case it becomes relevant as I level through GW2. This was quite entertaining! From a story perspective, I do find it a little bizarre that the opening's antagonistic force (the Charr) are seemingly never brought up again. But maybe that happens in a GW1 expansion or in some nuance I missed between cutscenes.
Ah yes, in Prophecies we lose against the Charr and flee from Ascalon, which then falls to the charr, with all who want to follow Prince Rurik over the shiverpeaks into Kryta only to get caught in an other even larger potential conflict, as the survivors of acalon integrated into the human nation of kryta. At the end we fulfill the flameseeker prophecies and actually open the door of komalie, a gateway to the realm of torment, releasing the titans or "the flame" of the flameseeker prophecies who are also the "false gods" of the charr, who also gave them the cauldron of cataclysm responsible for the searing event. The titans then invade Tyria all over the place so we travel around killing them. Later on in nightfall we actually face Abaddon the forgotten god, who was in control of the titans and through them ordered the charr to attack the three human nations (Orr, Ascalon and Kryta). Then later in Eye of the North expasion we return to the charr plotline by traveling to the charr homelands in the far north and face they shaman caste that are struggling with controlling the charr after the fall of the titans, and have turned to torturing their own keeping their power at all cost. But again a much larger conflict is happening in the background concerning the rise of the great destroyer. So the charr are not brought up again as the core antagonistic force as the ascalon nation did fall and the human survivers rally in kryta the last of the three human nations of Tyria. Afterwards we face the titans, the God Abaddon and later in the storyline of stopping the destroyers we also solve the underlying issue of the charr culture killing their shaman caste.
Thanks for uploading, and I'm sure a lot of fanboys enjoyed a party full of girls (+Gwen). With that said, I've always found the male voice actor in prophecies was more enthralling, and would have liked to see him in this. Will you consider a male hero redo, just so people can see for themselves which they'd rather progress as? Let's face it: proph is the most challenging, difficult, mind-numbing version, which necessitates more than mere tolerance of one's character to complete.
Thanks for this. Looking for gw2 context. The one thing gw2 fails at is explaining events from the past. Like you come in with Logan feeling guilty and stuff and you have no idea why
Hi Kira! As far as I remember, Logan was guilty because of something that happened in the GW2 novels. Didn't play it for years and never read the novels, can't say with absolute certainty ;) GW1 plays 250 years before GW2.
Yea, context is nice :D Then you need all four game movies -- Proph, Factions and EotN are already filmed, Nightfall will come later. How's life in GW2? Haven't been there for years...
@@Paradise7D ArenaNet are quite the busy bunch. Have been finishing Living World by now and next year in February End of Dragons is coming with new Specs.

So why are you still sticking to GW1?
@@Mediados Well, I *did* play a lot. I have 43 level-80 characters in GW2. Wanted to see every nook and cranny back then, and experience everything there is. But I stopped playing years ago because GW1 simply "felt better." GW2 is too much Barbie glitter for me, the fashion wars etc -- it's a damn good game, maybe one of the best MMOs ever, I admit that, but it's a bit of an overload for me. And at this point, not having played for years, there's quite a bit of catching up to do. GW1 is darker and tells a serious story, drawing a lot of inspiration from Game of Thrones (the books from the 90s, not the series). But I might go back to GW2 one day -- add my character Tyrian Moonlight if you like, maybe I'll play it again some day and would love to chat then :D
In hindsight it's really weird how the character never questioned viziers intentions - how he survived Orr destruction, why he's so invested in the sceptre of Orr, how it gives him power over the undead, why he wants to help us.
I remember people praising GW1 but I never had the chance to play it at its golden age, then GW2 came and I was always like: wth happened in the first game? 😂 but thanks to you I can clear my head from doubts and have a better context about lore
Prophecies was just the start of GW1, we had Factions, Nightfall, and Eye of the North as well! They expanded the lore and setting tremendously. Definitely watch Sandra's other movies on them if you have time.
that intro narrator...it sounds like gw2 human female's voice, maybe the same va? I love her voice! but also trippy cuz it sounds like the Commander narrating lololol
@@Paradise7D me either 😂 btw thanks for recording these videos. Just recently started guild wars 2 so now I’ve gotten interested in the first game, so these are nice to watch! 👍
For that, you'll have to watch the Eye of the North movie -- they turned to stone to fight the Great Destroyer, and were no more. Only exception was someone you can meet in GW2 :)
The Bloodstone was used as a seal to keep the Door of Komalie shut......as in Nightfall it's revealed to be a gateway directly to Abbadon's Realm of Torment, specifically the Foundry of Failed Creations. The Mursaat sacrificed the chosen regularly to power the soul batteries charging it. Later on in Guild Wars Beyond the Titans, big creations from the foundry, escape and wreck havoc on Tyria requiring the heroes intervention. You can return to this area in GW2 Heart of Thorns where the shattered mess of it remains, the wandering souls of the likes of Hablion can be faught as bosses. In Guild Wars Nightfall the Foundry of Failed Creations is an high difficulty explorable area.
I love GW1, but the plot absolutely falls apart in the middle. It felt like a bunch of ad-hoc fantasy-trope plot points strung together and then they just kind of move on to the next one.
Pretty much. Eye of the North covers some of the consequences of the Charr's victory, with Gwen now being a cruel and jaded adult leading a guerilla resistance against them. The Charr are ultimately victorious though, and the whole region is their starting zone in Guild Wars 2.
I've played 4000 hours of GW2, and this reminded me that the "magi-tech" aesthetic of the second game is quite hideous It's like going from The Last Airbender to Legend of Korra, but much, much worse. The "modernization" of the setting really compromises a lot of its appeal. I hope if they ever make a third game, they tone it down. The "Pact" assets are particularly ugly, glaringly so, in Orr. Same with the Aetherblades.
Despite gw1 asura and golems? It would be plain strange to not implement such technology in a 250 years span. In fact core GW2 did a great job specifically during season 1 with the jubilee and the mechanical army that Scarlett overtook.
We all need GW1 with the original ideas and character building and skillset mechanics, only with updated graphics for mobile gaming (maybe crypto-gaming, the new market rising)! There's a game for mobile, World War Heroes, imagine a GW1 game based on the combat mechanics and movement of this world war heroes game. It would be totally amazing to play such a game. GW1 is my all time favourite game. It was a bliss to play when it came out.
Gw1 is superior in many many ways! I absolutely love the gw1 story and many many aspects from the game. Plus for a weekly raider like me gw1 mursaat white mantle arc is so well done in the first 4 raid wings!
@@Azsharah good for you, but we are fundamentally looking for different experiences. I have never done a raid, and likely never will. the strike mission requirement for the siege turtle in GW2 is literally the only reason I don't have the turtle. I play guild wars because of the beefy catmen, and I don't understand how people keep missing that about me.
@implodingllama2092 "tired of modern platformers, it must stay true to the original and change nothing ;)" Which I don't really agree. I love gw1 but not being able to jump over a 1millimeter terrain elevation is infuriating. It's fine to love something and change what's wrong with it. I don't think many will disagree about ho painful the lack of axe-Z was.
There is nothing stopping you from playing GW1 right now. Why do you need it on "current game engines"? Are you talking about consoles or dev stuff? This is a ridiculous comment.
@@encycl07pedia- every time I try to play it it is riddled with bugs and my pc crashes like 9000 times. And I built my own system it never has issues. Gw1 runs shit on anything past win 7 it is a fact. I have tried on my stock asus laptop too and it literally just closes after 5 mins. Anet stopped caring about gw1 when gw2 dropped its a fact. And besides major cities the game is pretty dead.
Ty so much for doing this. It's a great way to remember the story.
Literally hurts me so much watching this because I want to go back and experience this amazing game just one more time.

@@encycl07pedia- every time I try to play it it is riddled with bugs and my pc crashes like 9000 times. And I built my own system it never has issues. Gw1 runs shit on anything past win 7 it is a fact. I have tried on my stock asus laptop too and it literally just closes after 5 mins. Anet stopped caring about gw1 when gw2 dropped its a fact. And besides major cities the game is pretty dead.
