In a new update published to the official ArenaNet blog, ArenaNet's Ree Soesbee discusses the creation process and purpose behind the cinematic introduction videos developed for each of Guild Wars 2's various races. The blog update also serves as a debut for the asura cinematic intro video, where we receive some additional insight into the background of this technologically proficient (and not at all modest about it!) and diminutive race. Are you planning on playing an asura? What draws you to them? Let us know in the comments below! Michael "MikeB" Bitton |

intro video was pretty meh... but Asura don't have much appeal to me anyway heh I angered the clerk in a clothing shop today. She asked me what size I was and I said actual, because I am not to scale. I like vending machines 'cause snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at a store, oftentimes, I will drop it... so that it achieves its maximum flavor potential. --Mitch Hedberg |

the ending felt sort of... abrubt or unfinished. I was expecting something else to be said or happen, not sure why. Otherwise, I liked it :)

Its better to be quiet and perceived as stupid, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. |

Good choice of male VA for the Asura. Nature without Technology is little more than animals running about. |

Originally posted by Sabbicat I agree. The sentence would fit as an ending, but not in the tone and speed he gave it. Should have been... "We will not move!" <Scenery of Asura and golems forming into war party> "Not for Dragons!" <Scenery of Dragons starting there decent on the Asuran war party holding there ground> "Not for ANYONE!" <Scenery of Undead marching against the Asuran war party from behind>
THIS IS SPARTA!
Ok...Not the Sparta thing. But the prior would have been fitting. Cant wait until friday!! |

Didn't find it as good as the other races honestly. Don't know if it's the full video. The others had some more punch to the opening. But still like the Asura, quite unique for the world. The only thing that truly annnoyes me is that the voice is suppose to be my character's. No wonder i hate voiced PC. But the actor itself was good IMO. |

Originally posted by Mithrandolir This only shows the beginning of the intro, as do all the other races intro cinematics ANet have posted on their blog., They are missing the bits of the intro talking about the choices you made during character creation which are different depending on which choices you made Cluck Cluck, Gibber Gibber, My Old Mans A Mushroom |
