I don't like Frank Pearce, he is an ignorant moron. Asking if we really want chat channels shows that he has probably not checked a community site in his life. He may be upfront, but he is upfront because hes a total moron, not because he is trying to "take one for the team" and tell the community news that they would eventually have to hear.
say you were born into a jungle indian tribe where food was scarce...would you run around from teepee to teepee stealing meat scraps after a day lazying around doing nothing except warming urself by a fire that you didn't even make yourself? -rekrul

It's still shit and hes serving it.


I understand if you'd rather have Dustin Browder answer your interviews and be kept going in a mindless loop of 'maybes and perhaps and eventuallys' until release date.

Who knows how long this has been planned for? I'd rather be told this from the start than to realize right at the end they have been playing us.

They didnt tell us from the start, they left it until the end.


Wasn't aware that the end allowed you to cancel your pre-order.

Perhaps. But there is still some flare and discrepancy on the official bnet forums, compared to TL.net. Lots of people are appeased by how things are currently. TL isn't, not by a long shot, but some communities are.

What I like about him is he helped kill Blizzard fanboyism. I have wanted SC2 to die for a while now.
Thanks for the help Frank.
If you are not Bisu, chances are I hate you.

I don't want to sound unsensitive or something, but I really didn't get a different feel from Frank Pearce than from any other blizzard interview.

Maybe its just me though, but I really didn't notice anything astounding about this interview. It just falls with the rest of the interviews.
EffOrt. That is all.

Yeah no. He 'dodged' everything by saying 'if the community wants it, we'll think about it' when in reality it's been overwhelmingly obvious from day 1 that the community wants these things.

Umm I think he tried plenty of times to dodge, but was just so terrible at doing it that we all saw through the BS right away. Maybe being bad at BS says something good about his character, but probably it just means he sucks at PR.

pretty much just a thinly veiled "not going to happen". they haven't listened to the community at all in regards to battle.net 2.0 so far so why would they change now

pearce came across as a total prick in that interview

Actually, now that you bring that point up I think I completely agree with you. I very much appreciate Frank Pearce. I just wish that he had better news.
Fuck you, I have a degree in mathematics and I speak 12 languages. (I called the World Cup final in 2008 btw)

Same. I found him pretty similar to the other interviews I'd read. In fact, I admired how adroitly he answered some of the questions considering how many were asked. He didn't give us good news but I don't hate him. I'm more inclined to hate Blizzard.

Oh, but the 'do you want them?' line did really piss me off. That did seem totally disingenuous. Or as people have said, he's way out of touch with community opinion - in which case he shouldn't be doing these interviews at all.
