Would you update the thread with some of the new info you got from the recent
German interview?
some additions i noticed:
*
Added Storyline concerning the Abyss and the enegry known as Aether
The Abyss is full of a substance called "Aether", an "element" or "energy" Daeva's used for flight. This explains why you can fly unlimited in the Abyss. The fight in the Abyss is about control over the Anether, which is needed for survival of the races. It is not a war about hated for the other factions.

Payment varies per region -
Every region has the right to change it's subscription type so NcSoft Austin may differ from NcSoft Korea and NcSoft Europe.
*
Faction Info updates -
Asmodians and Elyos will NOT be able to chat with one another and
Opposite factions will not be able to complete or gain quests in the other factions areas. (Not the same quests)
*
Class Updates -
Both scout classes can stealth
*
Abyss and Castles Updates -
Guilds can recruit and purchase NPCs to guard and defend their castles in the Abyss. Siege weapons can be obtained through PvE. Guilds may have to PvE to get these weapons OR buy them off the AH once a PvE guild/party has placed them there. Bascially PvE players do not actually have to PvP to help their faction int eh war for the Abyss. But the Devs would like every player to PvP and PvE
