<DIV>Echoes of Faydwer expansion interview is now up as well. </DIV>

[Celestian_]

<blockquote><hr>copystart wrote:<div>Echoes of Faydwer expansion interview is now up as well. </div><hr></blockquote>Was that an interview or just him making a pre-made speech over the video? I mean I didn't hear anyone ask questions.<div></div>

[FlintAH]

I thought the EoF one was better.  Much better prepared and showed off more exciting things.<div></div>

<div><blockquote><hr>FlintAH wrote:I thought the EoF one was better.  Much better prepared and showed off more exciting things.<div></div><hr></blockquote>But of course, EoF is an expansion, and probably has more work done then TFD, which is an adventure pack, and is probably only half complete at the moment.</div>

[xOnaton1]

<div></div>Well, I'm not sure about "work done." The Fallen Dynasty comes out next month and EoF comes out in November. The movies show Erik Theisz running through a live demo of the Fallen Dynasty and the EoF video was prerendered and edited to show highlights for Blackguard to talk about.<i>what was that Fire reflection thingy in the middle of the screen?</i>That looked like a reflection in the monitor.<div></div>

[FlintAH]

It looked like the Everquest II fire logo on another monitor.<div></div>

[Tamat]

It was a reflection from something in the SOE booth at e3. <div></div>
