    Why does the article only focus on Ashes of Creation's participation in the video? :confused:

    It wasn't the only game represented. John Smedley from Amazon Game Studios, Chris Perkins from Pantheon, and J. Todd Coleman from Crowfall were all there too.

    The way this article was phrased it suggests Ashes was the headline act and diminishes the other participants' involvement.

    Are you that incapable of reading 3 sentences below the embedded video? Youtube even has named chapters marked in the timeline. Maybe you should forget about video games for the rest of your childhood and get better at reading and analysis.

    Additionally, they are called "Coles Notes". I'm not surprised you can't even get that right.



    Yes, just making a joke =-) sorry if that was not picked up

    Joke or not, there's no way I'm going to watch 11 hours of talking heads.  Maybe videos like this are an indication of what may be wrong with the games industry.   Excessive.  Pointless.  Unfocused.  Words, not results.  I could be wrong, but this video may be the perfect crowdfunded effort!

    Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.

    Ya I watched some of it before and just could not get into it. I used to look at game developers like rock stars but they can get long winded when I just want to hear when I get to play their game lol

    For me that was not a joke, we could read what they said in ten minutes, but instead we have to watch an hour long video...boring.

    IMO the only one of those who has any right to comment on the "future of gaming" is Coleman. He's the only one in recent times who has actually created a working playable product that has a 100% chance of seeing release. He also has the right because he created a almost complete full feature MMO for 20mil in 2020. EQ Next had already spent 15mil when SOE crumbled and who knows how far along in development they were. People laughed at the Pathfinder Online guy when he showed up at one of these types of things next to Garriot but that game was at least playable at that time. Compare that to Pantheon, AoC & what Smed is working on which could all be vaporware. The criteria for being an authority on the future of gaming should be having your most recent product at least playable & public ready.
