Every profession will be available for every race
November 5th, 2011 -- Posted in Guild wars 2 | No Comments »Arenanet has announced that every profession will be available for every race. Though, when they’ve mentioned they always so apprehensive about it. So this might be a decisions they change down the road.
I never noticed any apprehensiveness about it. But if this is true, then what I see them doing is something along the lines of what has been done with expansions and whatnot;
The professions that have already been released will be professions that all races can have, but a further campaign/expansion may introduce new classes (much like the GW campaigns) that are race-specific instead of campaign/expansion specific.
I’ll try and hunt down the interview, but one of the designers was asked the question. And when he answered, he seemed to stutter and didn’t sound really confident in the answer. This might have just been a mark against his interview skills though.The only interviews and such I have were ones I have read, so it could merely be smoke and mirrors there too.
But who knows? Maybe expansions and such will grant us some race specific classes instead of the ‘core’ classes that we see here.
