A flood of information is 100 times better then some dinky trailer, at least then you can take the time to read everything about it. Are you honestly saying that you prefer it when a game company releases a trailer on a game and then makes you wait months til they actually put up a site with the information?

Watching a trailer for information means that you have to keep looking back at the video in order to fine comb through anything. At least with the site supposedly having a flood of information people should have an easier time looking through things of their interest rather then having to go to the 1 minute mark of the video to see something of their interest. I just wish they'd open the site before or at the start of E3 rather then at the end lol.

o_O Ok now, have you even look at the pdf, people make it sound like they just scrapped the trailer but they just decided to hold that card til later on, which is most likely because this trailer will spoil things that are still yet planned for 1.0. Oh yes it would be so much fun to release a trailer that pretty much spoils the conclusion to the seventh Umbral now wouldn't it lol. They release the trailer and then people will complaing about the spoilers in it XD Just wait til against and you'll be spoiled.

Why don't we all just channel our anger towards the fact they only released half the player poll, <_< screw if the translator gets tired couldn't you at least have given us the results on the classes lol.

o_O But ya I don't really get why people are getting so mad, originally their plan was to release a trailer and then information in stages. Now they are going to hold off on the trailer and release the information in one big flood.

Doing it this ways should guarantee that anyone who may be interested in the game will find at least one interesting thing about it in the information given. Releasing a trailer may spoil events that new players may decide to want to try out if they "read" the information rather then watch it. I mean seriously how many people have seen the trailers for the Avengers movies or even any movie for that matter. So many movie trailers end up spoiling so much without you even knowing it lol but the fact they show said things to entice you to go is pretty dumb.

In the same sense this 2.0 trailer will prolly have some scenes depicted for the conclusion of the story.

Also think of this from an actual PR point of view XIV had a trailer when it was first releaesed and then a site that released information in bits and pieces, while the site did look kinda nice the information didn't really tell you much about the game and said things that turned out to be empty promises and the trailer itself was nothing but CGI.

People who have gone to E3 before and have heard for XIV's first release would most likely think, oh look SE is releasing another trailer and site for XIV 2.0 prolly be the same bull as last time. However by saying, oh XIV is releasing a site which is planned to have a flood of information upon release will give people something to look through rather then repeatedly watching a trailer.

So ya, just be patient, one more week away, no 3 min trailer (big deal) but replaced with more information, let's just hope when the site goes live they'll have info on a lot of things maybe even new classes as well as the reform to DoL in 2.0
