The ARR website update that was supposed to come this week

[Soukyuu]

I always found funny to see people coming here (or in other gaming forums) trying to dictate when a developer should release information, hiding behind faux-marketing justifications the fact that they simply want to know and see more as a personal agenda.

There are times like that and... there are times like this, when SE themselves say they are going to release "a constant flood of information" that turns out to be a few raindrops in thanalan.

Not complaining persay but we haven really heard anything from TGS besides the trailer (that i know of). I thought they would update the site. Guess not =p

Its "per se"

Obvious troll is obvious. I guess no one ever in the history of online forums has made a spelling mistake.

They DID update the website, but for some reason the new trailer doesn't appear at the news section anymore. They even added the summoner and arcanist page. You can check it out. It was in the news like.. 4-5 days ago, but its not anymore :/

O really? You mean a 60 minutes talk show and a 100 minutes live broadcast plus more stuff and trailers in a month are "a few raindrops in thanlanan" for you? Your meteorological lingo is a tad rusty i see.

"constant flood of information" is a very generic promise, and one that they aren't breaking. The problem is in your skewed expectations.

Mind you, they released the subbed recording of the Letter from the producer live two days ago. So much for the raindrops. That alone includes a crapton of info.

I see no "constant" flood in that example. It's more like a short rain of info followed by a drought, so no "few raindrops in thanalan" fits it quite nicely.

I don't see anything generic about the word "constant".

The fact they needed 2 weeks to sub a 90 minute video when a fan translation is usually available within a day already makes that a bad example.

But for the sake of it, yes, it did include some interesting info.
Still don't see anything "constant" about it though. And it still doesn't explain why "early next week" didn't happen.

Also, what Elexia and Jocko said.
