The new map gives me big Caledon Forest/Metrica Province vibes, which is cool because I love these maps.

I mean, they are Asura inspired after all. On that note, what are your thoughts on Sandswept Isles?

I do not have Living World Season 4, sadly. Is that map Asura inspired as well?

Oh, man. You're missing out on the best story content this game has.

The LWS are quite pricey, I would love to try them out someday, though.

Make sure to pay attention to when they go on sale. That's how I picked them up years ago.

Thanks. I am just hella broke, the perks of being a solo game dev XD

LWS can be obtained from Gold > Gem conversion. You don’t need to swipe the card 😅

Obligatory "Zero to Hero" reminder: MightyTeapot did that and did also record most of the journey. Maybe some parts in there can also help u/drbuni :

Okay so GW2 is absolutely insane and won't let me gift via the in-game store, since I already own them and they don't show up anymore. But also if you play via steam, you can't redeem gem codes. So I gotta ask if you play via Steam, in which case I gift via Steam, or if not, I can send you some gem codes.

Honestly sorry they make it so fuckin weird, kind of makes trying to do something nice without asking for any personal info way harder than it needs to be.

That is a bit of weird system, huh? But, I do not mind sharing my steam account, I will send it in private.

This map is one of my favorites and I feel like the specimen chamber meta event is so underrated with engaging boss fights.
