A site thats acting like nothing more than a PR piece for the developer. Heaven forbid the guy should ask something remotely tough like if the game will survive very long with the low population numbers(they already consolidated to one server).

Did they touch on the tragedy that they have a postapocalyptic car combat game that bears more resemblance to Legos than the Road Warrior?

Pretty uninspired interview; it seems like the questions were taken from the Generic Journalist Handbook. :/

I don't need to be told what was included in the latest update or what the lead designer likes doing the most whilst playing. Where's the questions about its relatively poor acceptance from the community? Its bland gameplay? Its downsizing on NCSoft's part?

What's odd is that they heavily rebooted the beta shortly (relatively speaking) before release, and it changed a lot of things (heavy spawn rates and firing rates changes, physics additions, total questchain revamps ...) but it still didn't do the game any good.

I could always see the potential and get into blasting and running over things ... for about 15 minutes at a time. It just never pulled me in for much longer than that. Good for a coin-op, not so much for a MMO.

We've had some criticism (valid criticism) about not doing enough with the fact that we are a "car game" as well as the fact that we are an item heavy game, but there is no auction house. I also think that the arena system could be a much more significant part of the game, so these are things we are looking at in the near term.

Looks like they're listening to the criticism at least. Probably too little too late though. Oh what could have been...
