When a quest giver says "The village is being attacked!", you better believe that's the case, because here come the attackers and their prey may include a future quest giver. ArenaNet say there will be options to reset quest chains, but these "Dynamic Events" will add a real sense of urgency to what would otherwise be just another mob hunt.
This is possible because of the way Guild Wars works. Known as "instancing" on the developer side, it's just a way of saying each player gets their own version of the world. In Guild Wars 2, they're taking the idea much further, to build what they're calling your "Personal Story". Pulling information from the choices you make, in both creating your character and playing the game, your instances will mean that each character will feel more unique than simply having different armour or weapons.
