View From The Top Episode 18 – EQ3 Raiding?
Sep 30th
Getting back into the swing of things has been great for Karen and I. We’re recording once more and lining up great guests for the show! This show, however, does not have a guest! It is Karen and I talking about one of the most important things ever: raiding. Karen and I break down what we liked in EverQuest and EverQuest II and make some suggestions about what SOE can do with EverQuest Next! We also do some rapid fire “you make the call” questions and talk about a very special visit! Speaking of which, we’re running out of questions More >

View From The Top Episode 16 – The Guild Leader Panel
Aug 15th
At Fan Faire 2010 Karen and I had the pleasure of sitting down with a panel of guild leaders. We used the time to discuss topics that are important to them and pose some questions. The room was a bit noisy but we really had a lot of fun and the recording came out quite well. As Fan Faire is a cross game convention we were also lucky enough to get a good mix of player types and games. Despite our differences we found that many of our problems were quite similar. It made for an extremely interesting show!

Aug 11th
When we were at Fan Faire 2010 Karen and I sat down to do a couple of podcasts. The first we planned in advance with some other guild leaders and that went very well. The second was an unexpected surprise by Calthine of Zam! She brought Paul “Frizznik” Carrico, SOE’s Lead Mechanics Designer, over to talk to us and he was an exceptional guest. On episode 15 we discuss a few different aspects of EverQuest II, the upcoming Velious expansion, and even a little about EQ2 Extended. Take a moment to listen to Frizznik’s thoughts on the game. Enjoy this More >

Karen and I have asked, begged and pleaded for listener questions and feedback. You guys delivered beautifully and we quickly started to fall behind on answering it.
