Exclusive Interview With Ghostcrawler!
"No, you can't have a pony."So last week I had the chance to sit down with everyone's favorite Systems Designer,
Ghostcrawler
, and ask him a few questions.
I collected the questions using
your feedback
, and presented them to GC in a one-on-one setting. Perhaps his answers will inspire you, perhaps they will infuriate you—Mr. Street is nothing if not controversial. But nonetheless, here are the answers, straight from the crab's mouth!
Please note:
I have tried to preserve as closely as possible the conversational style of the interview, directly from the transcript. If we sound awkward, well...we're geeks. Cut us some slack.

Impressions from Zalazane's Fall
After visiting Dun Morogh to see Operation: Gnomeregan in action (see my recently whipped-up blog,
Impressions from Operation: Gnomeregan
), I wanted to check out what the Cataclysm pre-launch event looks like for the Horde side. If you weren't able to keep up with the flood of information about the pre-launch events, be sure to check out the quick summary we have on the
Pre-Launch Events
from our
Cataclysm guide
.
As a quick recap, the
Gnomes
are plotting to reclaim
, their irradiated city lost to
Mekigeniero Termochufe
. At the same time, the
Trolls
plan to retake the Echo Isles, their former home taken away from them by
Zalazane
. The mysterious Twilight's Hammer Cult will also take advantage of the situation to agitate for their teachings, bewildering common citizens.
Enough with the babble! Let's explore

Contrary to Popular Belief, Cataclysm Alpha Still Under NDA
Just to let you guys know, despite the flood of leaked Cataclysm information sweeping the internet, as of now all Cataclysm information is
still under
NDA
.
You know, in case you were wondering why that information wasn't appearing HERE.
The NDA is still in effect and has not changed in any way. We have already clarified this here:
http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread.html?topicId=13200617234&pageNo=1&sid=1#1
Unless we clearly state otherwise, please continue to assume the NDA is in place and in full effect.
This is just to let you know that this IS leaked info, and we'll be continuing your regularly scheduled coverage as soon as the NDA drops. :)
