ArcheAge dev diary talks housing, questing, and spreading diseases

@(Unverified)
Yeah it is semi-sad that we are getting info now. Build the hype up only for months/year(s) of waiting.
Hate when companies do this.

Imo a company should not start talking/mention/show anything about a game until 4-6 months out from their "scheduled" release.
We all know releases usually get pushed back a few weeks to a few months. 4-6 months is plenty of time to announce a game, slowly leak content/features, and have a good enough build up before release.
It would give companies the ability to release a game on the top of the "hype curve". Speaking for myself, I get semi excited when I hear about an interesting game, very excited when I see features/in game video/etc. Then I completely lose interest when I have to wait months upon months to be able to play the game. The longer I have the wait, the more disinterested I get with anything.

@Rindon FYI, the company posted the Q&A in korean and never gave any info to EU/US, it's the fans that do the translate work.

@Comrade Domovoi

Is this a response to the "spreading disease" part of the title? ;) No sarcasm intended; I actually thought of something similar, too...

@paterah

Sure thing, I just wish there was more to report (or that I spoke Korean). Really looking forward to this one.
