Firesky = CME. They report to the same CEO and same upper management. They go to the same leadership meetings and sit within 10 feet of each other half the time.
Khestral, the QA Manager, is involved in the day to day of SGW. He sees more builds and knows the quality of the game better than anyone. That of course speaks volumes given the state the beta was in.
Kevin Ballentine is not involved in the day to day and paid to talk to the press in the most positive sounding manner possible. Think about that. This was the MOST positive message he could come up with.
The message is true. THey are still there. They still go to work. They still try. It just dances over certain realities. Brad W. is correct, after 40 million dollars raised, a game should've been out by now.
If Khestral is the director of quality assurance I shudder at the thought of what the latest selection of screenshots must have looked like before he passed this click ?
"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience"

"Maybe it should be out by now, but rushed game aren't good aka darkfalls release"
"Rushed"?
Darkfall took forever to come out.
The only game I can think of that has been dragged out more is Duke Nukem.
Someone on the SGW forums pointed out a cute website: The Magic 8 Ball
So I asked:
:-)
yeh I relised I used the wrong game it was supposed to be age of conan instead of darkfall.
