This event officially became a big joke. While I do agree Tobuscus and Seananners being horrible representatives from the perspective of PS2 players, actually giving into criticism is even worse. Fire these marketing guys, really. The original idea of this campaign was to attract new players. Giving in to criticism and sacking Tobuscus for Levelcap is nothing more than admitting this whole campaign has failed. |

I'm actually very happy about this. Tobuscus looked and acted like a complete joke compared to the others. As a VS player the main reason I didn't give two shits for this campaign was due to how Tobuscus played himself in the original promo video.
Seriously, look at this guy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...LmE93ed0#t=41s Last edited by WSNeo; 2013-01-17 at 08:41 PM. |

Holy hell, that new video. Levelcaps bit was just very off putting, he looked and sounded like the scary kid in the back of the buss.
From Levelcaps videos I can see he has damn good skill and knows a LOT more about the game than Toby. A great thing indeed, but that bit in the event video was "something else". |

This event was never meant for us, "the real players" which is what marketing has clearly underestimated because you still need to connect to your current audience.
I'm a marketing guy, professionally, and lesson # 1 in marketing is to never go for a new audience without alienating your current customer base. Marketing amateurs, really. I hereby openly apply for a marketing job at SOE. Last edited by Rolfski; 2013-01-17 at 08:57 PM. |

But from a marketing perspective, you've got to admit a few mistakes have been made. Like many players, we are happily to forgive these mistakes though because with LevelCap, we finally have a good representative for VS |

All I can say is, how could I not stand behind an articulate Brit who is younger yet more bald than I? That's balls and gumption! For the Republic!
Ps. Gumption is actually a word, according to my spell checker. |
