Never been a big reddit guy before this whole EQN fiasco. When the diablo3 expansion was announced the other day I decided to check out the D3 subreddit.My mistake. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

Reddit is the shittiest shithole that was ever full of shit. Marketing douchebags love it because the community is so malleable and as-a-whole afraid of dissenting opinions. Think about how retarded the average person on the Internet is, that's the baseline for opinions on Reddit thanks to upvotes and downvotes. Have an opinion that is the result of free-thinking and learning from the past? "Fuck you, play nice with these greaseball devs and sales goons or we will all lose this unique opportunity to be directly force-fed outright marketing lies without realizing it." That's Reddit. It fucking sickens me that it's becoming a bastion for MMO-related discussion.

Second part of the interview is up
Sounds like they're implying that Rallying Calls will take the place of traditional expansions. They also say the reason for the slow info drip is to give people time to wrap their heads around the new gameplay concepts one at a time. The rest of its explaining their approach to the lore for EQN; nothing new there.

Oh man, I just threw out "greaseball devs" as a generic insult, but.. damn.. here we are.
Well I can't say that doesn't make sense. Take a look at all the bawling over the game's features across the internet from the past two weeks and multiply that by 100. That's probably what itwould havelooked like if they had dropped everything at once. This way they can do damage control and (probably) twist what they would've said if everything had gone over smoothly (as if that would've happened).

I feel like I'm watching a Cinco commercial from Tim and Eric's Awesome show.

All they need to do is a giant FAQ with all the Q&A collated - the problem is they're dripping information out all over the place and not collectiong and coallating it. They're leaving that to fan sites which are doing a crappy job (sorry EQNexus).
Yep, pretty much this. I mean, christ, an intern could do this and it would be more reassuring than the 50+ fansites all collecting little bits of knowledge left and right.
Lol? Major tournaments for big money winners have to be completely even response time and on site to make sure no hacking is going on. With tourneys like CS .1 of a second is the difference between a win and a loss. Even in ESEA and cal servers with even latency have to be chosen so the competition is equal. Many competitions i've attended personally were in RENO or Vegas for west coast.
