Why are everyone being so hatefull against Erling Ellingson?
The presentation included alot of stuff people have been screaming about for months, they are trying to set things right.

They are working on the weak points of the game, and to be honest, the quests he described in the new district of Tarantia sound refreshing and is not the "kill 10 boars"-kind of quest.
I have been considering leaving AoC, And I don't really think the Black Castle stuff will affect me that much even though its quite nice they implent stuff like that.

But after the pictures of Ymirs pass which of course is just another area but with alot of story imbedded which gives the gave a bit more depth.

I've seen people hating so much these last couple of days debating Warhammer forth and back about another game of kill X of these and speak with person Y, however thats justified or not people now flame Funcom when they actually are aware of the situation and add stuff like these "moral"-quests that we only can see in games like knights of the old republic with the dark side and its lighter counterpart.


Give them some credit, they are invested in the game and financially they are not comming out a winner if they drop the project, I encourage and support Funcom if they continue to add more content like the new district of Tarantia.

So it's so nice you wrote such a lengthy comment, gives me something to absorb. Now I doubt you were talking t me but my opinion you get none the less. I'm gonna go ahead and assume you didn't read my comment, now it seems Erling is trying to pass Black Castle quests off as new, when they're not, they've been there since the first time I venture in there. Now we come to your post, yes he's giving us what everyone has been whining for. Though I hardly think giving players things that were promised to be in launch (dx10, pvp. ect) deserves a pat on the back. As for content, great. Moral quests? Already in the game, there's even one on tortage. Good thing they don't actually matter, or else we might actually have a bit more depth. Let's not even mention client stability.

Now don't get me wrong, I love my aoc. Combat system, while not what I expected. It is much more engaging that most games. World pvp, exciting. Graphics are great, will be better with dx10. Though it's still missing something, there's not a whole lot to do at 80, it's pretty boring.
