Black Desert Online - why no news on this epic MMO?

I just stumbled across this MMO set to come out in 2013.  I've literally heard nothing about it until tonight and it looks amazing.  Take a look at the video on the Forbes link below (make sure to set the viewer to HD).  Not enough adjectives for this title.

Let me know what you think.

    yea looking forward to this a lot.. this and blade & soul but no info on NA releases of either of them

    I angered the clerk in a clothing shop today. She asked me what size I was and I said actual, because I am not to scale. I like vending machines 'cause snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at a store, oftentimes, I will drop it... so that it achieves its maximum flavor potential. --Mitch Hedberg

    yes, some very interesting Korean MMO's attempting to come out this year.  Blade & Soul, Bless, ArcheAge, and now Black Desert.  Could this be the year I finally get into one?

    Going to be stiff competition with Neverwinter, Elder Scrolls Online, and even rumors of Everquest Next making an appearance late this year.

    Good times.

    I'm really interested in The Black Desert a bit more than Archeage really. I really like player shops and TBD is going to have them among dozens of other things I can't wait for ingame.

    Same here. Only came across Black Desert tonight and I'm blown away by it. Played WoW (my first and only mmorpg) for the last 3 years, but it's grown kind of stale and I was looking for a change.  I think I just found it!

    Came across the following interview (there are a couple here and there) with Brian Oh of the Black Desert Team, dated Feb 21, 2013, for those who might not have seen it yet:

    I don't take that person's preview seriously since he/she claims not to be a real deal MMO gamer, so how would they know how to milk the BS from the reality?

    but I would like to know more aout the game. Know any other info panels?

    I really hope not. One of the comments says that they've confirmed no gender lock on the company's facebook. Unfortunately, I can't read the majority of it, and I'm too lazy to find it and confirm for myself.

    Maybe because it gives people such a deja vu feeling ? i mean if you have seen one asian MMo with this style you have seen them all. I am more interested in Arch Age and nothing about this MMO gets me excited. It is like i have seen it all and played it before. Its like mix of Tera, FFXIV, Arch Age.
