Chat with Brad Wardell on Arstechnica

Published on December 8, 2009 By Island Dog In PC Gaming

If you are a premium subscriber to Ars Premier 2.0, you can participate in a live chat with Stardock’s Brad Wardell this Wednesday.

“Stardock President Brad Wardell, live and answering your questions this Wednesday, December 9 at 8pm ET/5pm PT. He'll be tackling your questions about digital distribution, digital rights management, Sins of a Solar Empire, Impulse, and the upcoming 4X strategy title Elemental: War of Magic.

Mr. Wardell created the gamer's bill of rights, outlining rules that every publisher should live by to make their games consumer friendly. His strategy for dealing with pirates? Ignoring them. He believes that if you create compelling games and continue to support them for those that do buy them, you'll be able to make a living in this business.”

Bummer. Not a member. Brad's a cool guy, and he makes the type of games I like.

Dang it, not a member. Even if I was, I wouldn't be able to make it at that time. Will someone please post the text of it afterwards here? Please

Oh, and can someone ask what the plans for Sins are after Diplomacy?

I tried for a while to find a transcript, but it looks like it's locked down for premier members only too.

So is there anybody, anywhere, that has actually read this interview? Seems like a waste of time to do one and then gate it away from your entire customer base.
