As mentioned above; whats your favorite bit of lore? Personally, I love your skritt. They are probably my favorite hive mind race in any form of media. I wish they were utilized more.

The mists. It makes sense in a lot of ways except the pvp which I would if I could relocate back to the battle isles from GW1. Also Zaishen Order they are really interesting since I really love combat in the game.

I like the Skritt too :)

I would love for some in-game group (maybe the inquest) to just do an experiment and try and ramp up the Skritt intelligence as high as they can go.

I also really like the ideas of the mists and how everything seems to have come from the mists, but also everything that forms then impacts the mists kind of like rebounding echoes of reality.

The lore of the Sylvari has always interested me. But then again, the playable races really have interesting lore, compared to other MMOs imho.

  I agree. My main is a sylvari ranger. I was initially drawn to them. I hope anet explores the dream and the nightmare a bit now before the end of the game.

One thing that has always interested me in the lore is the Jotun race!

They were a really advanced magic society and decided to regress to what they are now to protect themselves from the elder dragons. Wild and cool bit of lore.
