Video: The Ascalonian Catacombs Dungeon Cinematic

 

In case you haven’t seen it already, ArenaNet has posted the introduction video to the Ascalon Catacombs dungeon in their recent blog post. Horia Dociu reports on the difficulties the animation team has to overcome when creating such videos, and as well what tools have they at hand.

We meet up with Rytlock Brimstone, our iconic charr character, in this cinematic. He gives us our mission in the Ascalonian Catacombs and warns us of the dangers that lie ahead while relaying a bit of the area’s history. Rytlock tells of the fall of the human kingdom of Ascalon, and we bear witness to that fateful day through a flashback. This is how we want to use cinematics in Guild Wars 2: showing what cannot be told with beautiful imagery.
