I’m in the Pac-Norwest for the first time in several years because Arena.net is having an event today showing some press types Eye of the North. Somehow, I’ve been invited as well.

So, over the course of the day I’ll have impressions of the game and (as of right now) I’m uploading a bunch of screenshots I was just given to my Flickr account.

I’m going to be upfront about this too: I’m here on Arena’s dime. This is actually technically my first expedition for the blog here; as you can imagine I have no budget for travel. And ehh … this isn’t really a Slashdot thing.  So, if this is a love-fest with no downside be aware it’s possible that I’ve been co-opted by the economic realities of modern society.

I have mentioned before, though, how much I like Guild Wars. I hope you won’t throw the tomatoes too hard.
