Apparently this is very polished for an alpha stage game. According to Dave G at least.
Thankfully I stopped believing PR speak from game developers quite a long time ago.

Well, it's not like Landmark is a particularly feature-heavy game, I suppose it wouldn't take all that long of an alpha to get the game into a beta-ready state.
True its not really a traditional MMO so a lot less to work on(quest, items, raids, dungeons etc).

I am a big fan of that idea and the poll looks like it will be hard to spin if they dont think so as well. Although judging by the wording (awesome!!) they want weather in.

I hope pantheon uses weather, nice unity vid.

They announced the forums would be archived and relaunched with more features for Alpha players. Of course they did not give a date when this would happen.

I'm not sure which I would enjoy more , them launching the alpha now so I could play , or if they miss and don't launch it until after the party.

The alpha forums will go full rage if they don't have it out before they get their hands on it at the party , limited or not , it still will be raging in the pure entertainment level.

I feel like the more excited these people are now (the ones who can't shut up for more than 20 seconds about how they can't stop f5ing) , the more likely they're going to be to throw tantrums about the game not being exactly how they imagined it later.

Georgeson has an unfortunate look to him, it's the impression I had of him also.

Then after watching lots of the videos and talks and so on , plus what he actually posts and his preferences , has made me think I'd prefer him in charge of the whole thing to begin with.

Same here. He sounds slimy at first but then once you get used to him, the enthusiasm spills out and he's done a good job so far with the info. Even the horrible polls are tolerable now. Compared to Brad, he's a much better lead of a project. Sad to say, but true.

Yup, I call him ponytail more affectionately than derogatory. I don't really have any experience with him outside of EQN and he seems genuinely excited about the project. It's hard to really hate on the guy.

The dev responses on this one are amusing. They all say yes , have it affect gameplay in some form or fashion other than Steven Klug who says for flavor only.

Keep Steven Klug away from decision making please.

My first impression of ponytail was "slimy used car salesman", but he's grown on me a lot over time just because he always sounds so passionate and excited about the game, in sort of a "Look how cool this shit is!" kind of way. I guess that is how used car salesmen try to get you, though.

Not to get too personal attack like , but honestly Omeed comes off in videos more "slimy" to me than ponytail does now. No idea why , just gives me that impression.

Of all the people, Omeed just seems to be the dude the dude that knows nothing about the franchise or MMOs in general and his whole job is to be a salesman. It's a shame there's going to be an in-game emote of him (at least in Landmark) now, I feel like there's a 100 other people that should have been given a nod before him.

Dave has grown on me, too. One of the people who made me incredibly nervous at first but he has been winning me over for a while now.
