While I want to thank you for confirming the good' ol boys approach in your hiring technique, it didn't "work" in EQ1. Because frankly, at any given time, I would venture to say roughly 10% of the game was broken, bugged, or simply not functioning.
If you are talking quest designers and dungeon layout, you know as well as I do who you can thank for that. Capozzi and Burke. Who are no longer with your company.
I will say I was a little harsh in my posting about your associate game designers. But for Christ sake, they do not even have QA experience. Some of the most experienced people making your MMORPG in dealing with the most important aspects have GM/Live experience with Monolith, or were advisors for Thief.
And if everyone is so confident, I would like to know why there are still no in game videos showing combat? Crafting? I am guessing because those major systems are going through a massive overhaul to make them fun. If that is the case, fantastic news. But let people know about it.
