MMORPG.com: Recently your prequel “Settlers of Ganareth” was released. How has the beta gone from your perspective? Can you talk about some of the troubles you’ve faced and some of the pleasant surprises you’ve had?

Farlan: We’ve been warmly surprised by the success the Pioneer Offer encountered. We knew that we had an active community, but given the delays and the lack of communication we are suffering, we couldn’t imagine that the packs would get sold that quickly.

We had to face troubles with confirmation emails (payment, Pioneer member confirmation) that where sent with delays, due to crowd control problems during the rush for Pioneer positions.

We’ve been really happy to see that the new Pioneers where proud with their number account: most of them now post on our forums with their Pioneer Numbered account!

We want to thank them again for their confidence in the huge Dark and Light project.
