Guild Wars 2 captured hearts and minds this week with the rollout of Bound by Blood, the first part of the game’s new season-like “saga.” While it’s just another explorable map for some players, for franchise vets it’s a chance to revisit nostalgia-laden scenery with an all-new storyline. And more importantly, motorbike derbies. Priorities, people.
