Yeah, that's a nice way to avoid a legitimate question. He asks for the guy's opinion about competition, guy uses Lucas Arts to hide the fact he knows bloody well that their game is failing. His answer sounds autonomous, I could make a robot that says the same thing at the mention of SW:TOR.

I'll admit I'm not a fan of SWG, specially since they trashed the game's original style in an attempt to gain people. I have little respect for SOE, and this only proves to reinforce that.

Yeah, what a lame way to dodge that question. He pretty much admitted that The Old Republic is a sore subject for them and that they are operating in their own little denial bubble.

Actually, I think they have some kind of agreement not to talk. Bioware was asked the same question in regards to SWG, and they declined to answer also.
