In a new update published to the official ArenaNet blog, ArenaNet's Ree Soesbee discusses the creation process and purpose behind the cinematic introduction videos developed for each of Guild Wars 2's various races.

The blog update also serves as a debut for the asura cinematic intro video, where we receive some additional insight into the background of this technologically proficient (and not at all modest about it!) and diminutive race.
