PROJECT LORE ROCKS
lol thanks for telling us that things are edited, i always wondered bout that, thanks project lore for showing how to do instances, i too get frustrated from game guides and crappy resolution vids on youtube.com. Keep it up Project Lore, u made me seem intelligent in an instance =)
I can't watch it since i am in the EU better go to youtube were they have crappy resolution lol lets hope i can view this in high quailty lol
Project lore is becoming very famous...make sure this thing doesn't go over your head..just a tip since many teams tarted this way and end up it a fame in there head..besides that just keep what you do best wipes and kills..opps i mean kill and destroy...LOL XD
well you got a point Frdi, those wipes and kills don't even really have to be seen unless it's beneficial to learning more about x game content. Same could be said about anything and everyone in project lore. All the awkward quotes, anything that might be staged. You don't really have to do that. Just keep doing scenes until you are confident with how things were played.
Alexis for example. I'm not going to say every wrap-up she would do ad-lib would be comic gold. HOWEVER I am saying that after a couple of takes with different approaches and execution there's bound to be one good take. Orson Welles said the most important part of film if editing. And Project Lore would do good to make that their John 3:16
Everyone wipes it's no big deal, sometimes I'm with a group that's at my level and who can just go and pull without me spamming go on chat and the dps takes mana breaks and doesn't fight for like 3 mobs, good tank good healer, and then there's times when there are less expierienced players who are maybe going through instances the first time, I'm a patient guy and I could teach young healers at like 1500-1600 healing or a tank with like 10k health but after like my gear gets red, I'm out. So making some wipes is no big deal, project lore is a big success.
These are decent at best but came up with a brilliant idea how to show ppl content.
Whoa, nice. Who would've thought that this project would boom so fast? Pretty soon you should publicize some statistics on views of videos, or some way to see HOW popular project lore is.
I saw this on my Black Berry. I was watching the interview before my movie Bangkok Dangerious Started. I hope project lore only gets bigger/better. The show rocks, the website rocks!
Rock on Project Lore. This is going on my livejournal! :)
I'm actually a bit surprised at how fast Project Lore is rising. Just don't rise so fast that you crash into the ceiling and then hit rock bottom. ;)
But seriously, great way to get some publicity.
I remember posting on the WoW forums several months back basically saying that there was a real need for something like this. Endgame encounters are getting so complicated you Need to have indepth explanations covering the fights and whats happenng so people don't go all crazyface when stuff goes wrong (happens way too much honestly).
Really happy that someone stepped up to the plate and set this up - it's also nice for those struggling on different content to see these guides, helps break the log jams that sometimes form with progression.
Many thanks to the Project Lore team for providing this service to the WoW community (and grats on the publicity)
you called her dude. classic.
Project lore i love it... My guild has to watch before we do insta. lol it helps aot thank you keep up the good work

Great to see that the mainstream notices projectlore - keep it up, do your thing!
Rock on, and please do some Karazhan Stuff ;)
Wow I think CNN should get some one who knows what they are talking about to interview people. She was so lost and was just read the questions that were given to her
Gotta love that editing ;)
*cries* yay for project lore!
One word to describe ur show is AWESOMESAUCE
Can we now on each Wrap up , how many times you got wiped >?
It would be rly interesting for me
PROJECTLORE ftw!!!
SteveBIRK - All news reporters are like that. Seriously, if she actually knew what she was talking about, Alex would have been unneeded. That's what interviews are for in the first place. You're getting the facts and information from somebody who DOES know what they're talking about.
O CMON!!!!
THEY GET MONEY FOR PLAYING WoW !!! ='(((
NOT FAIR MAN, NOT FAir!
Dr.Dark nice speech :D
Greetings from the EU realms!
I love the show and have downloaded them all to my ipod. I love your shows but i also love the guides for all the classes and the professions. Having never got to the end game stuff, I find that your show is encouraging me through the mid-level stuff so that i can get to it.
loving the " cheeseyness" of the interview XD
woot project lore ftw!
