- Besides the content removed what does this say about the game?
I dunno, but people who complain about stuff like this, seems to me, indicate their misunderstanding of the creative, much less collaboratively creative process. Every type of media you enjoy--books, movies, music, games--undergoes tremendous amounts of editing. Often it winds up nothing like what its' creators intended. Writers speak of this when they say that characters take on lives of their own.
It should be no surprise that products created for profit--which, face it, most games are--aren't immune to the process. In fact, often they're made better, for precisely the kinds of reasons the devs mentioned.

- Age of Conan Subscriber Numbers
I'd guess it was obvious to most of us in alpha/beta that AOC was nowhere ready for release. Unfortunately this seems to be the case for almost every MMORPG these days. Companies can't afford to wait, however, sometimes, so they wind up balancing their desire to earn enough revenue to keep running with their desire to present the best product available. Unfortunately the cost of premature releases can be the loss of paying subscribers. Nature of the beast. To us the products are games. To developers the products are just that--products.
