Guild Wars devs wrap up Winds of Change

Difficulty issues sorted.

ArenaNet has wrapped up the Winds of Change story arc which bridges the gap between Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2, with a blog post summarising the events which gives users the chance to catch up on the narrative.

Alongside the story summation, the studio acknowledges community feedback regarding the difficulty of Winds of Change, stating that initially "the difficulty was getting in the way of people enjoying the story, making it far more of a slog than we'd intended and actively undermining their enjoyment of it."

However recent updates have led to "major balance tweaks".

The open beta for Guild Wars 2 begins this March.
