It's hard to bring up faults about game development or information on a board that pretty much only has fanbois left trolling it.

You are correct that not a lot of NEW information isn't out yet and the best reason is probably because it's only conceptual at this point.

I believe that while we will have a great product at launch, all that new fluff is going to get pushed to patches after launch. I really don't have an issue with this (since history has shown that Yoshi delivers on most of what he promises) but people are really kidding themselves if they think everything new is going to be ready at launch.

It will just be the old game remade with the groundwork for the new stuff. Again I have no issue with this because I don't want my new content rushed, take your time, listen to feedback and get it right.
