Interview with Arienne Keith Necromancer from Guild Wars 2 - MMO Anthropology

Arienne Keith is a player of Guild Wars 2 and has been playing from almost the launch 2 years ago with some breaks between. Her character, Euclidia, is of the asura race (the small, greyish humanoid) of the Necromancer class. Here she speaks to her time playing GW2 and why she chose her class. For the most part Arienne speaks to her experience in GW2 as an explorer: she enjoys looking into interesting game modes that challenge dimensional thinking and provide new encounters with the environment. The interview takes place at a particular location called a jumping puzzle. These puzzles involve first discovering the location, and second leaping between platforms (and sometimes solving mental puzzles.) This particular jumping puzzle presents both a challenge for dexterity -- for jumping between platforms with low light -- but also a learning challenge as there are false trails that lead to dead ends. # FURTHER READING http://mmoanthropology.tumblr.com IF YOU ENJOY READING FICTION PLEASE FEEL FREE TO VISIT: BLACK HAT MAGICK http://www.blackhatmagick.com MILL AVENUE VEXATIONS http://www.millvexations.com CREDITS To thank him for that lovely intro animation here's Chris Warren http://mediachris.com
