old news from 2 weeks ago but I missed it
given that SOE’s Player Studio program is one of the cornerstones of EverQuest Next Landmark, SOE will directly manage EQNL and Player Studio for all regions.

While this is nice for everyone, I wonder if this means it will be later into 'winter', if they are doing it global, instead of a region or two.
I also wonder how long Next will take, after the Landmark beta, because it seems as Landmark gets you to maybe 60-80% of Next, depending on how much they put into it, since it is supposed to be a mmo.
A little off topic, but something that just popped into my head, I didn't think about it before, but Landmark will support different themes, so I wonder if Landmark/forgelight mix will be kind of like SoE's mmo developer kit, to where they can do different themes/worlds with it at an accelerated pace.
It's still not clear what all this means for EU-based players AFTER beta.
EU players at this point are still forced to sign up with SOE's euro publishing partner (ProSiebenSat) for EQN accounts. If SOE are supposedly handling "EQNL and Player Studio for all regions", does that mean:
unfortunately i agree -- FAQ still states ProSieben is for Euro

I’m mot sure how this works for EU-players. I can’t make a normal SOE station account. If I try to do so I am told that I’m in ProSiebenSat1 territory and I should make my account there. But can I access the Beta with a ProSiebenSat1 account?

I think you are expecting more than what you will get from Landmark. IT is a MMO of its own but it will be a very different style. I'm guessing it gets you to maybe 20% of Next.
