In regards to what the OP was talking about, it didn't have much in what he was referring to. No need to kiss ass here.



You only wish this statement was true. Since you obviously don't understand the concept of general points in regards to using "detailed roadmap as information", what detailed information was in it that matters to the general consumer? The testing phases? What will be in tests? That doesn't matter when people want information about the game, not the testing phases, which is what was detailed in the roadmap.



Except as stated we tested a separate build of the game, so while it could throw the time off, which they stated, that's very unlike since SE themselves had stated they have two developments going on with ARR in terms of alpha/beta (main client.)



Since you're trying to tell people they're wrong, allow me to correct you: Yoshida has stated we're getting 2 benchmarks, 1 before the release of ARR which has a character creator and 1 that is coming "soon." So what does 1.0's timeline have to do with anything when they already gave us general ideas of release? Your problem is you're taking certain words too literally, especially to use in an argument.

Since we're being literal:

Prolonged can means lengthy period of time, which could mean weeks or months or years. It has been very long time since we've gotten information about anything significant, no one can deny this. What can you tell us about Arcanist and Summoner besides "Summoner may not be ready at launch - SE"? The game is creeping closer to release and we still have very little information about even the class. This is the kind of information the OP is generally asking for.

"but it takes blah blah time to create a class blah blah"

Indeed, but they have an outline and concepts of it, I'm sure, so unless it's been pushed back, even you can admit they're slacking on giving out solid information for a game set to release in about 5 months or so if all goes well. That's extremely close to release to have such little information out about it.

Then again, you think a rehashed trailer counts as them giving us information..so I don't think you meant to say people were being impatient, you're injecting your own ideologies on this subject onto someone else.
Daaaaamn...

I was gonna respond myself, but you pretty much said it all! The White Knight BS does get annoying at times admittedly. On one end, we have people on the far left trashing SE and Yoshi and how they do things and seemingly critical of everything they do. On the far right, we have people defending any and everything SE does and calling it sacrilege if anyone seems even a little bit critical of them. People stuck in the middle of these two warring factions are often accused of being on the other side and blasted for it, like if maybe they question something SE has done or praise a move by SE they may agree with. It gets kind of crazy to deal with after a while. lol
