Good because Brad's original map needed a lot of work and interpretation to get to that point alone. A bit pissed they dropped Dragons from their title.

Its been a while ago now, but they brought on some guy that revamped the shading, lighting etc. for the world. I think it was the area called throne fast or the area right before throne fast. But the before and after pictures were drastically different, and for the better. You just had to sit through an ultra boring stream to see the difference.

Have no idea why people dislike this thread - If this game is in anyway a success this thread will be the ultimate compendium of Pantheon's development. Anyone even remotely considering developing an mmo should read this thread to avoid the main pitfalls of such an undertaking.

Some hero needs to go through this thread and pick out the pages with all the key moments and make a click able contents list. I've no idea if this will be good, or even release but I've had a few lolathons reading this since 2013.

Talisker & Avair designed and redesigned a huge chunk of the Vanguard classes and both of them came from Everquest. A huge part IMO of the fun of those classes is that they listened directly to the community via players who were "Class Leads" and via extensive testing with those leads. I haven't seen another game personally with classes like Bloodmages (DPS Healers) and Disciples (DPS Healers + buffers) which were so original and different.
I see people from the VG team for example like Ceythos who were really cool guys to talk to back then when they were just GM's and starting to be Devs. Having people who have been through the struggle like these EQ and Vanguard Devs if anything makes them imo more aware of past mistakes and lets them bring the experience they gained making Vanguard playable and fun into a new game from a shit pile when it released. Its not like every single person who works for Pantheon smoked GD Oxy's, it was one person.
I'd rather have someone on my team whose been into the trenches and conquered adversity versus someone whose only dealt with perfect scenarios and rainbows.

Vanguard probably had the best class design of any game I've played. A lot of other stuff in the game was terrible, sure.

is right though, having people that have failed (epicly in Brad's case to be fair) is not necessarily a total negative. Granted Brad may tie us to the tracks and scuttle off into the sunset with an armload of cash like Snidely Whiplash, we'll just have to wait and see I guess. I certainly won't pay them until I see reviews from credible sources.

I like what they have shown so far, but sweet hell they are glacial.. hopefully this shows something other than new grass and one of a half dozen starting cities full of grey box placeholders.
