(CAM) footage from GamesCom, GUI could use a little clean up, from 3:40 you get a little closer look at the environ and character animation in an unclutered space, it looks gorgeous.
Character creation starts at about 2:00 the video, with some nice early human gameplay.
I cannot wait for this to release, 1st day purchase AND taking a week off work to play hard!

I am really curious as to what the remaining four classes are. Mesmer has to be one, going by the book...there's the Monkagon and Assassin-type...but no clue what the last could be.
*holds out for Dervish*
And sheesh, that opening cinematic and character creation are insane. I can't wait to see what full creation is going to look like, since the one they're using for the demo is a very stripped down version.
Argh. Waaaant.

Oh, and weren't we speculating that one of the last classes would be a Gunner? By no means certain of course.
Our speculation was based upon one of the character class silhouettes resembling a charr carrying a large gun.
Talking of which- here's the link http://www.guildwars2.com/en/the-game/professions/
The one second from the right looks very much like that Mesmer concept art I posted.
Possibly-Gunner is far left; Monkagon is far right.
Warrior
Ranger
Elementalist
Necromancer
Mesmer was seen in the live demo - (charr demo)
Im going to claim;
Assassin (quick-fire melee specialist and thrown projectiles with shadow abilities)
Cavalier (armor + minor casting mostly defensive and smiting, as seen in my sig, gotta pay attention to promo artwork)
Scout (Quick-fire gun specialist, but wears medium armor and can melee when needed with stun, and interrupt skill bases)
Live demo channel, check back here, first live demo was at 10:00 gmt, next one later sometime, check the gw2 twitter for updates and demo times.

Oh, btw, i saw the warrior with the casting ability in the 10 oclock demo, looked like a defensive buff it was a shield with a ghostly aura infront of the warrior - well infront of the warriors as there were about 5 of them with it.
