As
the managing editor for the community sites here at Ten Ton Hammer
one of my goals is to not only provide an excellent place to learn all
about your favorite games through a constant stream of news, features
and
guides, but also to provide our readers with opportunities to become
part of an active community of like-minded gamers.

One such example would be on
our
Guild
Wars 2
site where I put a call out on the href="http://forums.tentonhammer.com/showthread.php?t=52687">forums
for readers to
submit questions they’d like us to ask the ArenaNet team at
href="http://www.tentonhammer.com/events/gamescom/2010">gamescom
2010. The community responded
with a
good number of well
thought out, pertinent questions about the game, so I was determined to
get as many of them answered as possible while at the event.

At the show, I had the
opportunity to speak with Game Designer Eric
Flannum who was more than willing to answer as many of our
reader’s questions as time would allow during the
understandably hectic event schedule. While we weren’t able
to address every
question submitted, in the following exclusive video
interview Eric provides some fresh details on everything from ranger
pet mechanics to the ways players will be able to interact in their
home instance, and plenty of other things in between.

We’d like to thank
ArenaNet’s Eric Flannum and the
team from NCsoft for giving us the opportunity to ask a number of
questions submitted by our community. And of course a very special
thanks
goes out to our Guild Wars 2
community members who provided nearly all
the questions for the interview. If some of your questions
weren’t answered here, rest assured that we’ll do
our very best to provide similar opportunities in the future.
