Speaking of showing videos, some of you have been wondering why we haven’t officially released the footage of the demo we ran at gamescom. The answer to that is simple: it still looks like an ordinary MMO. Sure, our current players have been bowled over by the differences between the original version and A Realm Reborn. However, for those discerning MMO fans who haven’t played the original version, A Realm Reborn in its current state merely looks like your everyday MMO...just with better graphics. Yes, we expected fans to upload their own videos of the gamescom demo, but I think that at this point in the dev cycle, this is a more exciting way for people to be a part of the whole process.
It doesn't specifically say any part, just that he is not happy with how current state looks, so they haven't had an official video yet, but they do like that there are homemade videos to start word of mouth. So wait till official video or Alpha beta before you settle on they have removed it. You do have a good concern but I think it is just a bit to early in testing to worry about it.
