Eye of the North also marks a rather different style of mission construction than Guild Wars players are used to. Rather than a linear mission structure, Eye of the North is a much more freeform affair. Once players have made it to the Eye of the North, the first major town in the game, they'll be presented with one quest that breaks down into three branching quests that each has their own series of sub-quests. These quests may be tackled in any order and players can even go back and forth between each of the three branches. The idea is to create "story bubbles" that the player can tackle at their own pace and avoid restricting players with artificial bottlenecks by providing a variety of activities.
