Letter from the Producer, XXXVII (10/26/2012)

[KiriA500]

Can I just add that I think this is a good example of a good Producer's letter. It didn't contain a whole lot of info, but it did give us something new to talk about, because of the screenshots.

Can you imagine if they released screenshots like this regularly. Like every week. That sure would be something.

Eh, it's still early.

Just wait, as the day progresses, we'll start seeing threads complaining about stuff. I foresee someone crying about this screenshot in particular:



If we had more frequent updates, while nice, we'd just see more nit-picking over the most trivial stuff.

The only thing I don't like about that screenshot is the weapon/hat/hood clipping issues. I was actually pleasantly surprised by the screenshots this time around. They made me feel excited about the game, and I haven't felt like that for a long time.

That's the one thing I hoped would be fixed with the new engine.

I would love it. Nintendo did a similar thing when they marketed smash brothers brawl. Every day from Monday to Thursday they would release some new detail about the game, sometimes as small as a new item and sometimes as large as a new charecter.

It was a very effective marketing tactic and really ensured that everyone following it was a drooling madman by the time the game was released. It could work for an mmo too.
