Re: Phony war?

Well, we know it's out there! The reviews that have been coming from the large gamer sites have been outstanding!/

Sure, it gets disheartening at times. When you have over 55k people signed up on the OVF, all clamoring for information and not seeing a lot, the only thing you can really do is remember what it's taking for those folks at Sigil to get ready for the next step of beta and to continue working on one of the biggest games to hit yet! Let me give one of my famous "fer instance" thingys:

If I'm decorating a wedding cake for the President's daughter, and it has to be large enough to feed 1000 people, I'm sure as anything not going to want folks poking their heads in every 5 minutes to see what's new! You need to keep the concentration factor at the max and not worry about what others are thinking all the time. Yeah, I might make a goof or two along the way, but I'm going to go back and correct it, but maybe not until I'm done with the other stuff! And when I have something I want your opinion on, or want you to see (just to make sure I haven't eaten all 7 layers so far), I'll ask you to come in! Shoot...you have any idea how much it takes to make one of those things? (yes, I've done it irl!)

Same thing applies, and the only answer is still "Patience"! If there isn't that one element, we'll get another release like EQ2 that was still in beta, but they wanted to start getting the bucks and had told everyone it would be released to rival WoW. BIIIIIIG mistake! Then, 10 months later, what happened? They redid a lot of the game. bleh!

So, I'm going to sit here and scan and do what I can, and if there's nothing for a while, I'm going to go shed the 10 pounds I gained by sitting there and scanning mindlessly!

It's coming! We get frustrated that we can't tell you more, too, but once it hits, the frustration will come from too much work keeping up!

Hang in!
