Carolyn Koh and Dana Massey met with four reps from SOE for breakfast on Thursday at AGC. Director of Corporate Communications Chris Kramer, EQII Community Manager Ryan Schwayder, Director of Community Relations Alan Crosby and SWG Event Manager Jason Ryan all chimed in as we discussed Star Wars Galaxies, EverQuest I, II and Online Adventures, The Matrix Online, Planetside, SOE Seattle, the DC Comics MMORPG and even Tanarus.
