Hey :) Just as a side note as I've seen a few comments. This video does not include any story spoilers outside showing a couple of characters in case you have not made it through the story as of yet. When making the series I wanted to make sure to avoid impacting any new players first time through the storyline. Cheers!
New player here, thank you very much for that
same i haven't beaten Living Story Season 1 Yet, So I am Looking forward to Finally getting around to it at some point,
As a 10year veteran, I just wish I could induce a GW2-amnesia on myself, just so I can experience everything for the first time, one more time
as a new player no, it's too complex and overwhelming :'(, I'd like to already get the hand of this
@@phaus5815 i dont think its that overwhelming. when i started gw2, the only game i played was temple run. when i bought expansion thats when i got overwhelmee
@@phaus5815
I'm pretty new, been at if for just a few months. Imo, start with the story, preferable with a friend or two if you can. I had the good fortune to get introduced through other friends, and we played the story. They were very patient with me, and there was lots of laughs as I accidentally aggro'd things, dragon triggered off cliffs countless times, accidentally broke the game one or two times, etc. Was a very fun and hilarious experience.
I played GW 1 but I'm thinking of starting GW2. Waiting on my pc parts.
I remember the sense of wonder, logging into the game on day 1.. massive groups of players completing world events.. fighting in huge wvw battles, it was truly amazing.
that guitar solo to fear not this night gave me chills!
this is why you never under estimate the griffon riders of the game : D
Really enjoyed watching your journey into Tyria. It's refreshing to watch someone so fully engaged with this unique MMO before reaching a conclusion. Minor issue, the Living World episodes are only paid content if you weren't playing during it's release. The content is completely free for players that login during it's release window.
I agree, I played the main story without the paid living story episodes and most of my reactions were : Who the hell is this? Why do I know him? The heck are they talking about?
Mitch is the gift to gw2 we never knew we needed❤️❤️👏
Get over yourself
Ah, yes! The classic "pocket raptor" blunder. We've all been through it!
"That is one f***ed up Pokemon" That quote just got you a new subscriber
This may sound weird, but I’ve watched these GW2 videos of yours several times. As a veteran playing since original beta, it warms my heart to hear someone talk so warmly about my favorite MMO game. It makes me want to go back with a new character and re-do the whole story with a fresh perspective. THANK YOU 😊
You are very welcome
This channel should have subs of at least over a million by now. Mitchmanix is imo the best content creator on this platform by a very long stretch. The amount of work he puts into his content leaves others, including the top hitters, to shame. You deserve great success my friend
OMG thank you for sharing, I made the fatal mistake of trying to watch this at work, My colleagues were very suspicious as I kept laughing, Hilarious coverage and as a veteran player., really enjoyed your coverage,. thank you.
After 10 years and a lot of reviews and videos about the game, I didn't expect to find a new one to raise the bar. I enjoyed all of your previous videos, but this "recap" of Gizmo's journey had everything really: funny moments, serious thoughts and opinion, wonderful footage and great edit. Those moments when you decided to let the music speak were also great. Thank you for your take on Fear Not This Night. I'm an old man, but almost cried.
This video is what got me to try Guild Wars 2. I'm now near the end of Path of Fire, and gonna try to do Season 4 and maybe Icebrood Saga before taking a bit of a break from it for the new FFXIV patch. Needless to say, I'm loving GW2 and really glad that you inspired me to try it!
Dude, you've become one of my favorite content creators, I see your vid, I instantly click it. XD thx for all your work. I Will always remeber the Disco Gizmo journey as a great time. =P
He’s great, right? Deserves way more subs.
@@loftus4453 he certainly does, he is imo the best content creator on you tube! By a long way!!
One of the best "Guild Wars 2 New Player Experience" videos I've stumbled upon.
All his videos are amazing
Mitch really hit it out of the park with these videos. Nice to have them as one ridiculously, breathtakingly, unbelievably complete package.
It's been an absolute pleasure to join you on your journey!
And as an aside to anyone who may be discouraged by the Living Story Seasons being additional "paid DLC" in a sense. Keep in mind they can be bought for free with ingame conversion of gold-to-gems, and that Seasons 3-5 are each effectively an expansion but for the fact they don't include elite specs for the professions. Outside of that fact, each season easily contains an expansion-worth of content :)
I haven't played yet, but GW seems very "fair cost" to me. They charge for expansion content that cost a lot of money and effort to create and it works out far cheaper than a sub-based MMO if you don't rush/nolife your way through the content. The full expansion set is < $50, which is less than a single AAA game or ~4-5 months of a typical paid MMO sub. I might be missing something, but this seems fair to me. If I were investing time into this world, I'd feel reassured that there is a working business model there to keep it going while not ripping off players. Have I got this right?
@@paulie-g GW2 is very fair. There's a handful of convenience type things you might want to get from the gemstore (Copper-fed Salvage-o-matic is great if you've bought the expansions so have a shared inventory slot to put it in. infinite salvage kit for all characters) but the game is entirely playable without them (e.g on the salvage kits if you make a habit of keeping about 4 of the basic 25 use kits in your bags, and restock back to 4 when you pass by a merchant every so often, you'll rarely find yourself out of savage uses).
Many veterans will keep an eye on the gold conversion, and when it dips down to below 120g for 400 gems, they'll grab a few (note with "custom exchange" button, you get get less than 400 if you lack the gold to get that many) Once you hit lvl 80, if you make a habit to salvage your drops and sell the mats from your bank regularly on the tradepost, you will have little trouble earning the gold to get gemstore shinies when you want them. 99% of gemstore stuff is cosmetic, the rest is simple convenience (again you don't really need the convenience stuff, game is more than playable without) and account upgrades like additional character slots and the living story season (always buy the full bundle for a 20% discount, not single eps via the journal).
I make loads of gold, of which I drop quite a bit into gems for skins, but I still drop some cash down now and then as well to support the game. I suppose you could describe it as a voluntary sub except you get neat skins and stuff for it, or character slots, if you decide to put down some cash. But you completely don't have to if you can't/don't want to :)
only an expansion for a F2P game. it is nowhere near a wow expansion. and LW is some of the worst mmo content i have ever tried . both in story and gameplay.
if i had known where they would take it, i would never have started in the first place.
@@kimrasmussen7188literally every comment you leave is you being a hateful dickhead. try enjoying something for once. miserable wretch.
I love the sound tracks on GW2
The last bit of guitar is the best. its very emotional and thanks u for enjoying the game, to give the game the respect that it deserves.. thanks and I hope u enjoy it more.
This Video is just amazing and I have to be honest the beautyful end of this great recap of my absolute favorite game actually brought a couple of tears out of my eyes. 🔥👌
From the cineastic mastermind, who brought us the jawdropping adventures of His Chiseled Wickedness GALACTICHAD, comes a new captivating blockbuster. Join the daring endeavors of His Swinging Quirkyness DISCO GIZMO, as he ventures through a magical world of grim perils and overwhelming beauty, which leaves us speechlessly amazed!
Do not miss 2022's must-see for the entire family (even the awkward parents-in-law)!

Amazing comment mate 😂🥳
Off the bat with this game the community and the soundtrack are both incredible!! Within the first few days I went on exploring missions with peole I met in game (especially marveling at traveling via siege trutle haha) and because of that I noticed how well the music changes and adapts to what you're doing and where you are, and the transition from one soundtrack to another is seemless (this is also an awesome thing during world bosses)!! Love the videos and how you showcase the amazing world of Tyria! Hope anyone reading this has a great day!
Its been incredible watching your adventures through GW2! I've really enjoyed following Disco Gizmo's story in your videos and livestreams, and seeing your enjoyment of my favorite game. And you've quickly become one of my favorite content creators. My day is brightened when I see a new livestream or video of yours to watch. I hope we get to see more GW2 content from you going forward, but either way I'm excited to see what's next. Thanks for all the great content!
X2
Since it's the "New Player Experience" video, safe to say that they cost money. I don't think new players were logging in to limited "free" events.
Dude, you just smashed me with the solo at the end! :D And good to have those new player's feelings back after I have turned myself into a darn grinder for legendaries.
The guitar solo was something I'd never have imagined come up in this video. Amazing!!
If review of the game give you chills, you know its hella worth it. Also cheers to you for one of the most complete yet easy to enjoy videos. Well done
PS: i am sold and instaling…. 😂
this was just beautiful mate!
Stellar presentation! Fantastic job putting together/cutting/editing this video, your sense of humour was icing on the cake. In addition highlighting what makes GW2 so enjoyable. Thank you
Wow, Mitch! This review is second to none my friend!
As a long-time GW2 veteran, it was a joy to watch your journey; it brought back a level of nostalgia and missed appreciation that I didn't realize was absent. It is a great introduction to new players and a wonderful reminder to us old-timers of what the game offers. Thank you!
Had this recommended to me out of nowhere and as someone who couldn't get into GW2, I thought I would watch the first 5 mins and see where it went. Sat completely immersed through the whole thing and incredibly inspired, you are a fantastic story teller and I loved the adventures you had with Disco Gizmo! As someone who ruined the game for myself by using boosts and hurrying to end game, this time I want to try from scratch and explore the whole world instead of rushing. Now I need to decide on my race and class lol
it was so nice following along and seeing your journey through the game while seeing you out and about and playing with you. Made me so happy you felt at home in the game!
Amazing video in the end really gave me chills with the epic music and all those moments we experienced in game.
Great job on this Mitch! Loved it
One of the most in-depth showcase of the game, amazing effort my man
Such a lovely look at GW2, thanks Mitch - hope we see more amazing guitar solos in future vids too!
Even though this is "just" the previous videos stitched together, they were all so great that I really enjoyed watching them in one go. In addition to that, this video is perfect for explaining other possible players why I love this game so much, as you captured so many of the great aspects perfectly and in a very entertaining way.
Thank you for highlighting my favorite game better than anyone has done before you. Your character was perfect for capturing the fact it doesn't always take itself too seriously to focus on fun.
My only wish is that season 4 had gotten more of a spotlight, because to me, that era in the game was its pinnacle for amazing storytelling and visuals. The trailers for each episode of it were pretty epic too.
Living worlds 3 and up are like expansions in their own right with the amount of content offered. They probably should have been sold as such after their completed release, to be more straightforward for those who missed them fresh, rather than the confusing model they chose. But, I guess being able to buy them with gems is the upside.
such a well crafted video, u can tell how much effort this took. good job man
Exceptionally well done ❤ ty
great job! really enjoyed,thank you man!
That was so entertaining to watch! Amazing sense of humor and storytelling skills!
The guitar cover at the end!! 🤘🏻
Loved this video; it's beautifully put together, and the touches of humor are a hoot. I think you hit the positive points of GW2 on the nose and, for me, captured the magic of GW2, in that it has such a variety of things for a player to engage in. After 15k+ hours, I don't think I've yet 'done it all', and still enjoy playing. World vs World is a really fun part of the game that you can easily sink a lot of hours into, it can be full-on pvp while roaming around engaging in duels, or it can be more pve-ish, by scouting objectives or taking supply camps (always some good fights around camps, too) But, I think GW2 does really shine with it's open world events - which seem to be rather unique in comparison to other mmo's. Additionally, many collections and achievements keep players coming back to the early maps, so I don't think you see 'dead' early maps, as much as I've seen in other mmo's. It's a good system.
Btw, I also enjoyed catching some of your Twitch streams of GW2. Hope you plan to do more! Thanks for sharing with us!
Such a great recap. I enjoyed seeing this summary of your journey.
Man i wish i had discovered your channel earlier, I got hooked to your content after watching the galactachad supercut.
Been enjoying your journey through tyria💜 glad you did enjoy gw2 as much as i did :D
Excellently summarized, and oh man that solo at the end is still so good! GW2 may not be for everyone, but the community we've got is by far my favorite of any game. People look out for each other, and there always seems to be someone around who's happy to help new people get their bearings. It's really refreshing!
I really love your way of presenting stuff in your videos :) Also I had to chance to play with you on drizlewood meta :)
ooo goodo a Disco Gizmo documentary✨😍✨
Truely an amazing vid and story of YOU that journeys deeper within GW2, just well put and really well done, this shows new players how and what is actually done in the game thanks for making this game Bigger as Myself love this truely unique game on his own.
Someone I use to know always talked about Guild Wars 1, and how great it was! Guess you could say thanks to this video I want to look into it, and try Guild Wars 2. Already looking forward to the upcoming Steam sale next week for the game. Thanks again.
47 min felt like 10 minutes, very nice video!
I'm a long time gw2 player, and tbh, i can't thank you enough for giving this game a chance and making such gorgeous and awesome videos about it and your experience! Amazing work man
well done, you got me wanting playing it again
i only played the "main game" so i got some experience to be done
good vid, well edited, good amount of humor, i enjoyed it
This video is so great, it makes you want to dive into the game immediately. I really love it.
What an amazing objective video on one of the Greatest MMO's, your commentary and opinions are very well done and thought out, plus your sense of humor is amazing. Thankyou Mitch appreciate what you do for the often overlooked MMO community :)
Wow. This was probably the most entertaining and best put together review for the game I have seen to date. More entertaining than quite a few movies I have seen lately. You've done an amazing job, putting this together. Well done. And thank you for all those kind words about my favorite game. It was a delight to watch. :)
This video truly is one of the best I've ever seen. Thank you for this creative, informative and beautiful work. As a GW2 player since open beta, I loved Gizmo's journey. I subbed to your channel and look forward to watching your video library 😊
I truly enjoy Disco's adventures. It is a refreshing as Guild Wars 2. Hope to see more.
Always looked forward to your review of each expansion. Honestly disappointed you've reached the end of them, but thrilled you enjoyed them so much. You captured exactly what makes the game so special, and with a sense of humor that perfectly matches the energy of the game. I still hope we'll get to see more of Disco Gizmo, but thank you again for these wonderful videos chronicling his adventures!
Lovely video mate
【Shades Finnish Pirates】Pretty cool game, guitar solo was humorous and epic at the same time
Absolutely speechless incredible video
WOW! What an amazing video. I laughed at your other series while marveling at how authentically humorous they were and how well scripted and editing they were... but this video was on an entirely different level.
As a GW2 player who started PRE-LAUNCH and played for quite a few years and who loves ANET and GW1 and GW2, it's so wonderful to see someone brand new to the game experience and appreciate it so much. Thanks for sharing this with us and I look forward to not only watching all your current videos but watching your new content for years to come hopefully. You have real talent and passion and it shines brightly in every single one of your videos I've watched to date.
P.S.: Have you saved all your VODs of your entire GW2 playthrough? Twitch hardly has any left on there and I noticed you've only recently started streaming on CZcams. I'd love to go back and watch some VODs of your early days in this wonderful game. Maybe you could post them to CZcams as an unedited "playthrough" but regardless I love you work dude. :D
The vods are here friend: czcams.com/video/1n5jnbZV3Y4/video.html
@@MissFirefly11 Oh that's awesome! Thanks so much. 😃
Love this
very well made video. playing this game since beta, this is my favorite MMO. I come and go as I please.
I got emotional hearing the song at the end "Fear not this night"
I hope someone from ANet sees this amazing video :)
Criminal if they don't reach out to him!
A wonderful video, and good guitar playing.
I'm just getting back into GW2. I played around 2017 so I barely remember anything and this was an amazing watch with some good funny moments. I will say out of other MMOs I played I truly love the feeling of the world being alive and not just at hubs and things but you get so engrossed that time just flies by.
I just re downloaded the game after a 8 year break, thank you for all the videos, they help
WOW! What a video. 👏
you sir, deserve a sub. Thank you for this entertaining yet informative morning coffee.
Also a veteran player since GW1 days and GW2 beta here. Just wanted to say, you did a great job capturing the game's appeal. Great videos my guy
Thank you so much for you streams and videos. Now you know what it's all about. And boy was it worth it. Really enjoyed the ride. See you in Tyria.
You have GOT to release a full version of that song so I can have it as a ringtone. Please!
Wow. Looks amazing. Played EQ2 a long time ago before I dropped out of the P.C master race. Wish I’d tried this. Love the exploration. Came for the detailed breakdown stayed for the hairdo.
A great & fair rewiew as ten year veteran player all i can say thank you Mitch....NOW have completed all the current content You are now ready for the True end game of GW2. Fashion Wars 2
God I love these reviews for GW2. 36:07, that face xD
Also, absolutely superb guitar part there.
Awesome video, I love GW2, thanks Mitchmanix 👍🏿
Incredible video! On my way to try the game again since 2012 .
Welcome back!
This looks great. Tempted to give it a go soon.
really great video :)
I just started playing the game around August. Playing the game, it felt nostalgic when I was playing MMO when I was still in high school, staying up all night and grind to my hearts content. But what I love about this game is it respects your time. You can play the game anyway you want and you won't feel left out. You can take a time off the game then come back and things are still the same and/or new content you can play.
This is the best gw2 video I ever seen
Crazy that this only has 40k views
Is there an award process for best content creator in this genre? This video deserves greater recognition, unbelievably skilled piece of work!
You have a sub sir. This was very entertaining!
Griffon acts more like an advanced glider is a normal misconception in Gw2 before someone has learnt to utilize it properly. One thing to start with is to do a wingflap as you dive with the Griffon 🙂 Instant full speed. I got some videos if you want to see what a Griffon can do. However, I am not nearly as advanced in flying as plenty of my guildmates 😅 Many of them has made tutorials where you can learn to do the same.
I wasn’t ready for that ending 😭😭
The best gw2 video ive seen here on yt
I must say, you're really a big part of why the GW2 community are great for now !
Lol'd when the Sonic music came on. TY.
Greatest review on youtube.
Gotta say i love disco gizmo!!!
anet needs to hire you Mitch - super fun video
Enjoyd watching this as a new player myself
terrific and thorough. I also can tell how you enjoyed Tarir themes ;))
ive been playing for about 7 years now (with a few breaks inbetween) and i must say that guild wars 2 has actually shaped me to some degree, thank you so much for covering it, your Video on this is more than worthy of the game's marvel and is sure to attract new players, thanks ❤
