Hi everyone!
Wow, PAX East was great! The response from everyone was awesome, and I want to thank NVidia for the opportunity to show there. We hadn't planned to show it publicly because we are so busy right now, but NVidia made it possible by supplying a venue and great help from their staff, so thanks to them!
I also want to clear something up - there are evidently articles and posts floating around that we have a release date - we don't! There was a "misunderstanding" based off a quote involving the release date of Diablo III. While talking about that, the point I made was that we didn't want to release at the same time they do if we happened to be finished at the same time, and would want some breathing room on either side. I said the ideal breathing room for that would be about 30 days, but that we are, as always, committed to finishing it right and have no date in mind. If you look at the source article, the only actual quote from me is the one word, "ideally", without the rest of the conversation. We will release when it's done, and we don't know exactly when that is yet.
By the way, we were right next to the Blizzard guys showing Diablo III, and I mean RIGHT next to them. Like 8 feet away. It was great! They are really cool guys, Bashiok and Chad, and we had a fun time chatting and checking each other's games out.
Far from being awkward, it was like hanging with old friends with a lot of mutual respect.
Anyway, I haven't looked at this thread at all, or any of the coverage from PAX except the occasional tweet, because I got home at midnight last night, so I'm going to spend some time this morning checking it out. Based on the reaction from people playing, I'm looking forward to seeing what people have written and posted.
