UPDATE: the threads discussing this interview were locked by Xelphneigh citing
While we all value information we have questions regarding the validity of this information and it's source. Please hold judgement while we investigate this matter.
UPDATE2: It's legit
I'll get to business first before nitpicking (on the answers not the interview itself).
MMOSITE.com: Why is the lottery closed after one round?
DNL Team: In fact, the total number of players envisaged by recruitment in this lottery has been reached during the first round. Then we wanted to privilege players’ evolution already present in the game.
MMOSITE.com: Are all the promised features making it to April? If not, what will be missing from the April release?
DNL Team: An announcement about the precise contents of Dark and Light will be communicated very soon!
MMOSITE.com: Will all races and classes be available in DNL, such as fairys? And what's about character customization, will there be more features to making our toon?
DNL Team: All races of Dark and Light will be available during the launching of the game.
MMOSITE.com: If you have completely fixed the problems of having lots of people logging in at once in a few areas.
DNL Team: This problem was solved by a better distribution of the mobs and scenaric objects in the world.
MMOSITE.com: How you are handling the introduction to DNL? Will there be a tutorial when players get in the world?
DNL Team: A quickstart manual will be available online for all players starting DnL.
MMOSITE.com: Will the interface look different in DnL, are you going to add artwork to the interface?
DNL Team: The interface is being rework yes and new frames will be implemented.
MMOSITE.com: Will there be events carried out in DnL linked to SoG?
DNL Team: No, all what occurred in SoG is completely independent from DnL, excepted plaques that Pioneers will have placed in the world of Ganareth. These last remain definitively on the land of Ganareth and own the Pioneer’s sign who placed them.
MMOSITE.com: Explanation of how attributes/equipment affect skill/spell damage.
DNL Team:The damage on the equipment depends on the type of the weapon (percant, contandant...) and the type of the armour (plate, chain-mail, cloth....).
=> (You can read “Access to armours and clothes” for more details).
MMOSITE.com: How much goth do pioneers bring back to DNL?
DNL Team: Goths’ repartition for the heir will be made according to the following (these amounts are totally independent of the amount the Pioneer had in SoG):
250 000 Goths if your character has reached level 35
200 000 Goths if your character has reached level 30 or higher
150 000 Goths if your character has reached level 20 or higher
100 000 Goths if your character has reached level 10 or higher
50 000 Goths if your character has reached a lower level than 10
=> (You can read “Inheritance DnL” for more details)
MMOSITE.com: What will you do if initial subscription numbers are low?
DNL Team: Keep enhancing DnL content and ingame life so that players appreciate more and more spending time ingame…and tell others!
First of all, it doesn't really answer any important questions other than the goth inheritance
Second: http://darklight.mmosite.com/blog/armours.jpg
WTF? Nice job
Anyways, I don't want to take anymore fun away from you guys, go ahead, fire at will

Well, that says it all right there. SoG is most definitely DnL. And look, a DNL Team person used the word "communicated" in a sentence.
Flash backs to December and the SoG release, all over again.

As far as on paper, I have seen the migration system in action. It was removed in SOG I assume due to need of tweaking. It was very cool, but people were confused because they didn’t find there level 1 rats right outside of town.

Just wait until the game is really released (heh, there's a piss in the wind if I ever saw one).
I have a 5-spot that says it will not get even 1 positive review. Well, except maybe on DnL's homepage. There it will get "Most anticipated, wonderful, awesome, game EVAR."
DNL Team: An announcement about the precise contents of Dark and Light will be communicated very soon!

Sorry to brake it to you pal, but an interview is USUALY the ideal time to release information, that's why you're being asked questions. The only reason not to is that there are still promised features that are not working properly, or not even there yet. If you can't answer certain questions like this, why bother agreeing to the interview? It doesn't give good PR when you can't do more than dodge a question.
Top Ten Most Misused Words/Phrases in MMO Industry...
They've been doing this kinda ambiguous wording for a long time now. Not many caught on until SoG blew up in their faces and people started scrutinizing their words.
BTW about agreeing to the interview they delayed replying for like a month
And the stratics one is still missing
awwww...come..sit next to me....{hands Zorb a soda, some Good & Plenty and some popcorn}
Have you all noticed all the new "hateboys" showing up here some of which have joining dates of 2003!! Even people that have never been here or on the DnL boards seem to be showing up to slam on DnL.
Time to go get more popcorn and soda, this is turning into a double feature......
