A Realm Reborn Media Tour 2013

[InuraBera]

Thanks Shougun

Man, back in the day I used to buy a gaming magazine a month, and sook all the information out of it. Now I refresh the Lodestone and flick between any possible sources of information nearly non-stop.

I'm just hoping that it gets a positive reception (and more than just a 'it has improved') as I know I'm going to enjoy it, I just hope we can drag lots and lots of new people on board as well.

I bet Yoshi-P and the rest of the team (and perhaps even Wada himself) are sweating bullets at the moment as the people from yesterday begin scribbling their articles of eternal damnation in the writer caves.

Are they heading to Europe next, or has it been a case of getting folk flown in from the EU for the media event? Not sure if anyone would know that, minus those who have been invited / done the inviting or if I've missed something.

Kind of a rough translation but there's no info.

…というわけで、サンフランシスコでの活動も終盤に近づきましたので
チラチラとしかご紹介できていなかったインタビュールームもご紹介。

So, the event here in San Francisco is approaching it's final stage, nothing but a glimmer remains in the interview room.

こんな感じで窓2面を使って装飾がなされていました。

A certain feeling is captured by making use of these two side windows as decoration.

On the opposite wall a picture of a building, the interview room itself is like a corner in Gridania, so that's the image!

反対側の壁には建物内の絵を用意して、インタビュー部屋自体が
グリダニアの一角にあるような、そんなイメージというわけですね！

It's nice in the evening, but you can't much see the images on the windows.

夕方になると証明のあんばいがまたステキなのですが、
窓の装飾が見えづらくなるという惜しい感じです

さーもう一息です！

So what major gaming sites or media were actually covering this event. I haven't seen anything like on Gamespot, IGN, Gametrailers, 1up or any major gaming news site. If they are covering the event they aren't doing a very good job.

Does the word "embargo" not mean anything to you?

It's been said over and over that they're being asked to WITHOLD information until the tour is over...so that EVERY news outlet releases the same information at the same time to their respective regions.

But I guess the cool thing to do is bitch for the sake of bitching now rite?

I should imagine that the media outlets have been asked to restrict the information until the media tour has concluded so that nothing gets leaked ahead of schedule. In a few days there will likely be a simultaneous update.

I hope a lot of people showed up - looks like they did a fantastic job on everything and I know it took a lot of hard work^^

An embargo period of a few days also stops people rushing stories to the printing press. It should result in some higher quality journalism.
