The art design journal two weeks ago was the best thing posted about this faction, and part of the reason was that it was text. I could quote the passage about the jaw back at the man who wrote it and say plainly that the four eyes convinced me less. A conversation gives me nothing to hold while I disagree with it.
That is a preference rather than a complaint, and I know which way the numbers run. A video interview reaches people who were never going to open a wall of text on a forum, and Conor talking to BATTLEMODE is aimed at a room that is not this one.
What I would want is the transcript afterwards, alongside rather than instead. The written journal is still sitting there to be argued with a fortnight later. The interview will mostly be a thing people remember having watched.
