  • Welcome to the start of a new series! I was inspired to make this after the success of my video on the Facets and Varajar fells. There are a lot of cool mysteries in Gw2 I guess I've spent too long assuming are common knowledge, or are still left over from the first game and weren't revisted by Gw2 at launch. In this series I'll be showing that stuff off, and maybe I'll respark some interest in Tyria while I'm at it.

      @Momijisu Před 9 lety

      WoodenPotatoes As someone who has only just started to delve into GW2 lore proper and not fully read up on the game and what's happening with HoT, could you perhaps expand on how right you were, what aspects did you predict, and just how much 'told you so factor' was told? I genuinely would like to know.
      (And wow this could read like me trying to call you out, not the case!)

    its actually insane. i just found this channel. 10 years later watching this video and a lot of stuff you said actually happened.you have some amazing detective skills XD if i was playing the game that early on i could never have tied these things together

  • @WoodenPotatoes
    @WoodenPotatoes  Před 11 lety

    Yep! This video was annoying to make because of vegas bugs so I've just been contesting with it the entire time since infinite launched. I'm about to get a nice cup of tea and sink in to it. Can't wait!

  • @Justin9740
    @Justin9740 Před 7 lety +2

    Still a great video to come back and rewatch.
    I'm guessing now we can assume that the Inquest knew of Mordremoth partially due to Scarlett's involvement.

  • @esarandom
    @esarandom Před 10 lety +2

    Been watching your vids for a while. You have plenty of unconfirmed yet very interesting hypotheses around the lore, but this time you really hit the nail on the head.
    You gathered the info from from obscure interviews, names of enemy attacks, old gw1 lore...and guessed what was coming a year before Mordremoth's "release". Kudos to you :D

  • @xMckingwill
    @xMckingwill Před 10 lety +16

    I just came up with a crazy theory maybe the Sylvari were created by the jungle dragon to sub conscientiously act as the dragons eyes and ears as a means to explore the world and gain knowledge of it and its people, and the pale tree they interact with could actually be a fake and its the jungle dragon pretending to be the real one

    • @chriskaras2011
      @chriskaras2011 Před 9 lety

      ***** i was thinking the same thing maybe the whole reason the dragons awoke was to declare war against each other and they just see the races as resources they can use to strengthen there influence.

    • @MR2972420
      @MR2972420 Před 9 lety

  • @Samuirai
    @Samuirai Před 10 lety +9

    WP, watch your own video again and keep in mind what we know today about the Living World. Some things start to really make sense. The Interview mistake, the book, ... It seems like they had the rough outline for the living world finale planned for a very long time. Makes me very exciting.

  • @Cabbi-
    @Cabbi- Před 11 lety

  • @InTheDesertRain
    @InTheDesertRain Před 10 lety

    Oh my.. Dude you were so right from the very beginning. Every little detail you found, every hint you have given us, everything was right. It's incredible how clever you are. I'd love to see you do another gw2 mysteries video about updates to come, I guess you'd be right again =)

  • @Ellipih
    @Ellipih Před 8 lety

    Damn man. How big of a brain do you have!? I can't even remember things from big story lines and you keep remembering tiny fun tidbits of information and conversation and connecting them.
    Seriously. so much respect. especially because you can tell all of this in an interesting way!

  • @duncanerrey9789
    @duncanerrey9789 Před 9 lety +1

    So cool to see how accurate your predictions were. And looking back at what we thought the expansion could be like now that we are so close to HoT release date!
    Great video, keep it up

  • @chuenli
    @chuenli Před 11 lety

    I really like your videos about GWII Mysteries. The way you make links between GW & GWII is refreshning for someone like me who played GW when it first came out in 2005... as my memory of the history in the game isn't so good, it helps a lot! :) Also your hypothesis about the following of the scenario are great!

  • @WoodenPotatoes
    @WoodenPotatoes  Před 11 lety

    I like have long discussions too, but most people aren't willing to listen to it at length. I do apologise to anyone who watches this and has already heard me speak of modremoth!

  • @GoldHaartGaming
    @GoldHaartGaming Před 8 lety

    Awesome and thank you WoodenPotatoes for these videos and all you do.
    I got into Guild Wars 2 about 2 weeks ago and have seeing your lore videos has helped me get up to speed with this beautiful and amazing world.
    I will keep playing and watching your videos.
    Thanks again.

  • @skyerenard8939
    @skyerenard8939 Před 9 lety +2

    with HoT comming soon this was fun to watch as I actually learned some things even though I knew of Mordremoth already from so much being mentioned now but I never thought of all this from CoE and this makes me want to look more into the game itself and the lore

  • @Torcher999

  • @xephini
    @xephini Před 11 lety

    I love cool secret things like this! I'm far too stupid to realize any of it walking around Tyria by myself though, I even talked to that NPC once... That said, this episode was really good and I'm looking forward to more of the series, I like how it is serious with the lore yet with a few jokes here and there :)

  • @Fatalityzx
    @Fatalityzx Před 11 lety +1

    If Mordremoth and the Maguuma wastes end up being an expansion, huge huge ups to Anet for hiding something that big in plain sight and basically letting us figure out how the game will play out in an expansion.

  • @austinl8074
    @austinl8074 Před 11 lety

    Johansen mentioned it in an interview? Cool. Love the idea of this series. I like when you talk about this stuff because you look a lot more into stuff like this than I do. Keep 'em coming. :)

  • @OlAgony
    @OlAgony Před 11 lety

    Great Video WP. It's 'hidden' small things placed into games like this that makes games and stories so compelling!

  • @LadyMinuit
    @LadyMinuit Před 11 lety

    This whole theory got me thinking about one think. It seems each race is tied to one dragon in particular: Zhaitan= Human, Jormag = Norn, Primordius = Asura, Kralkatorrik = Charr, Mordremoth = Sylvari and Bubble = ???. Which also got me thinking that 6 dragons might actually needs 6 races to fight them. Well maybe, just maybe, Bubble = Largos? This could open up possibilities for an underwater expansion where the largos would be playable.
    Great video anyway. Keep up the good work!

  • @Kanaderuru

  • @metalslugguyYT
    @metalslugguyYT Před 11 lety

    Fascinating beyond all reason. Love the content, love the endslate. Keep it up, WP!

  • @JordanSedai
    @JordanSedai Před 7 lety

    So basically, if we kill all of the elder dragons, by the time we get to Bubbles, we will not only have to fight using underwater abilities, but all of it's minions will be as strong as Subject Alpha (plus underwater abilities). Fun!
    Definitely interesting how the Inquest already kind of grasped magic's spectrum and were able to use them. I would like to have some sort of in-game acknowledgement of the Inquest's involvement again. Last time they were really important was back in LW S2. Taimi, if she ever got any free time, may be able to connect a lot more pieces, if she looked at the Inquest's work.

  • @Duijn123

    Absolutely love it, keep it up WP. Tyria lore is fascinating, thanks for sharing!

  • @ItsAlkron
    @ItsAlkron Před 11 lety

    Love the idea of the series. It would be interesting to see if they push further on this path, we would possibly end up finding Malyck's sylvari tree and more sylvari deeper within Maguuma. All assuming Malyck and related content pointing towards more sylvari trees could stand as true. Possibly even more Sylvari trees as the major cities within the region (similar to how LA, Divinity, Hoelbrak, etc are the towns for Tyria at the moment). Yeah definitely keep up with this series haha

  • @WoodenPotatoes
    @WoodenPotatoes  Před 11 lety

    Haha, I was wondering how long until someone would comment on the preview :P. It's footage leftover from a long time I spent making an intro that didn't use in the end.

  • @SubNeutron
    @SubNeutron Před 11 lety

    Great video WP! It's a good thing that you do this kind of stuff because I've would never had guess that the crucible of eternity had anything to do with the elder dragons (even though it seems kind of obvious now). Nor would I've ever had found the NPC at the durman priory. Thanks for the information :)

  • @bertramkrogh3898

    Fantastic! Much as I enjoy your other content, this is the area in which you (at least in my opinion) truly shine. I look forward to further instalments.
    Like the endslates by the way, could do with a bit more finessing of the artwork but as a concept it looks like a step up for you.

  • @AVeryAngryMosen
    @AVeryAngryMosen Před 11 lety

    @fadekill Před 11 lety

    That Colin interview. o.O For the rest: I followed the guru discussion about this closely (earlier) but it was nice to hear you summing it up (I would've missed the interview, too..). I like the idea that the jungle dragon started awakening in gw1 time and slowly dried up the area in process. I would also bring up that (as you mentioned) the inquest may have been in contact with the dragon. The area around the gate you showed in the beginning is about the inquest, nm court and seperatists

  • @Nitragon
    @Nitragon Před 8 měsíci

    I only got in to the game with Heart of Thorns. I had no idea that the total number of dragons was initially in question. I knew Mordremoth was hidden, but had no idea that the game was so cagey about delivering any information about Mordy at the time.

  • @Ravmunken
    @Ravmunken Před 11 lety

    Amazing artwork! well done! Would love to see this series live on. High quality videos about the more interesting mysteries within the GW universe. Personally, this sixth dragon feels more fleshed out than bubbles, who we dont have any information or any interesting theories on. If one were to believe in the theories for this one, it has a name, a champion, and plenty of minions spread across the world, whilst bubbles just feels slapped on at the end as a tease of things to come.

    Hey, WoodenPotatoes! Just made an account to post this: Great work with this video! You always have me intrigued with the stories and lore you portray so brilliantly in every video. I played through all GW1 campaigns and never saw even half the things you mention in your videos. It's great to have someone on CZcams able to catalog and organize all the awesome content ArenaNet has implemented over the years in such an entertaining way.
    I wish you all the best in your future endeavors!

  • @richarddrouin2847

    With all these mysteries together with reading the Guild Wars books, I am getting much more attached to the game and feel like it has much more to it than other MMORPGs.
    Btw your endslates was a good idea. Keep them :)

  • @TheNokadi
    @TheNokadi Před 10 lety

    Well first off i would like to point out that this is a very interesting topic and series and thank you for doing it. But i would like to also point out that we have only really fought one Elder Dragon then the lieutenants of the others. So in my thoughts are there interesting enough are 6 Elder Dragons but there are other smaller dragons around as well hence lieutenants and so forth. And who knows maybe even a 7th Elder but that one being more of the peaceful good kind. But who knows maybe more lore will show up that we don't know about.

    @strongestoneofall Před 11 lety

    Anet could of course change or deny things in future but that all sounds very compelling and seems to fit together nicely. I quite like the name Mordremoth. It reminds me of Voldemort, very sinister sounding

  • @REModifica
    @REModifica Před 11 lety

    Watching this video gave me some thoughts on where we might fight the other Elder Dragons.
    Primordus: Ring of Fire Island
    Jormag: Further of the Far Shiverpeaks
    Kralkatorrik: Possibly where Glint used to be hidden
    Bubbles:Somewhere out there lol.

    there is also in the northern part of brisban wildlands a broken bridge that bandits are trying to repair and if you look across you can see one of those things that you see at the entrance to different zones. this is obviously hinting that if they can rebuild the bridge you may be able to one day enter the zone beyond....?

  • @belgeode

  • @HsDeluxe2
    @HsDeluxe2 Před 11 lety

    In Caledon Forest a Sylvari called Gamarien says "I'm scouting Wychmire Swamp for Nightmare Court activity, though I fear an even darker force is at work. I worry these summoned husks are harbingers of that greater foe." This indicates that there is a second source in the creation of Husks in addition to the Nightmare Court being servants of it. This would indicate that the Pale Tree is a former Champion of Mordremoth the same as Glint was the former Champion of Kralkatorrik.

  • @AmayaHinageshi
    @AmayaHinageshi Před 11 lety

    If they do it right, the underwater content with Bubbles could turn out amazing. Giant deep sea instance with a pilot-able submarine. Hell, it could even be a raid. You'd have to fight deeper into the ocean until the sea dragon spawned. Imagine being deep underwater and seeing a giant pair of fins/wings unfold from a black abyss. I would fangirl all over that shit.
