AO Basher has conducted an interview with the folks from Funcom about the current state of AO. Rather agressive questions, and sometimes rather blunt answers *g*:

    Sion: The atmosphere over there in the Funcom offices must be really dark, you have recently laid off staff and the future is looking shady. Can you answer in all honesty, is Anarchy online going to still be around this time next year?

    (Answered by Thomas Howalt, Product Manager on AO)

    The atmosphere is serious, but *absolutely* not dark. Our staff (both those who are forced on leave and those who'll stay) understands that trimming the organisation happens in all businesses at all times. We deal with it in a professional way. Nothing has slowed down. We have plans for everyone in the next six to twelve months. Business as usual.

    Regarding the last question: it is hard to predict - especially about the future. But look at what we have: a fantastic product with lot of potential, which has improved steadily and regularly over the last two-three months. We have the will and the production-capacity to enhance it. We are actually walking the talk!
