Welcome to truediff
This is truediff — measured analysis of the Guild Wars franchise. Not opinion dressed as fact, not hype: the numbers, the method, and what actually changed.
The one rule
Data over hype. Every claim here should be reproducible from open data. When a patch lands, the question is never “does it feel stronger” — it’s how much, measured against a baseline, with the working shown.
What you’ll find
- Patch breakdowns — what buffed, what nerfed, how far the meta actually moved.
- Economy — Trading Post flows, measured over time.
- The franchise, diachronically — GW2 now, and what comes next.
Everything runs on a small, open, self-hosted stack. The dashboards live at almanac.truediff.dev. The code is open.
That’s the diff.
