This release (Cutthroat Politics) gives an idea of where we want to go - that it provides a better permanency: a vessel to wrap a story around.
There are intentions to update existing dungeons (including Fractals) to make those more fun.
We want to have a story throughout the world to drive that (Living World) change.
We want to add more permanent experiences; the outcome of this vote brings mini-games back that people love.
Players will vote on what teams build the new Fractal from scratch.
As an extra bonus (to talk about next Tuesday) not just are you voting on the Fractal, we're going to bring back the Molten Weapon facility and Aether Blade Retreat as Fractals by the end of the year.
We want to focus on permanently upgrading the game world, not just temporary content. 
We've grown our living world content: we now have 4 teams which will rotate content releases each month.
On Thursday this week we'll put out a blog post about what other teams are working on throughout the year: providing more transparency for where we want to go over the next 6 months.
ArenaNet haven't decided if we're building traditional expansions (we'll talk more about it in the future). The contents you find in expansions (regions, dragons, races) we plan to build those in the future. We're trying to find out how we roll those out. Experiences such as Dragons will be happening.
No new Dragon this year.
We'll see the impact of content team productions become bigger later in the year.
Our focus is on creating a unique world experience (not server based ones). We feel our Living World project is only just beginning.
There is a possibility that we'll go back to locations in GW1. Traditionally a new region (such as added via an expansion) is compelling. We will add new regions- some of those will be peoples favorites.
The story line we've been experiencing this year will become clear by the end of the year. There is a nice ribbon that wraps around all of it.
Our Fractals are a perfect vessel for us to bring moments in the universes history into the game.
We are building our LFG tool right now. It's complicated, but it is coming along really well (play test completed yesterday!). It will be out this year.
We'll see additional Personal Story. Think of the Living Story as the entire world growing and evolving. Within that you'll have more characters in that.
We want to add permanent and temporary content that is compelling. We really want an "I was there" approach to what we're delivering. We can't have some things running forever- we need to strike a careful balance.
We'll invest in skills first before new professions. There are some archetypes we didn't cover.
No plans now for next gen-console port of Guild Wars 2. We want the freedom to update our game as and when we like. Consoles don't have that.
Well over 3 million copies sold and not yet in the biggest regions.
Tokens are dropped everywhere out in the game world for the election. This is not a traditional election: it's pirate. You can see candidates buying votes from players and using dirty tricks. The Black Lion Trading Company are also involved. Throw traditional roles out the window.
Don't miss the blog-post on Thursday, with a lot of juicy stuff in there!

Join us for a Livestream on July 16 at noon PDT with Game Director Colin Johanson, who will explain our Living World approach and take a look into the future.
