This is false. Vanguard was ahead of it's time, we know it then and we know it now.
Pantheon is trying to take us back to such a time, to a bygone era - it's the whole reason it's appealing.

If Pantheon's ethos was to be cutting edge, people would have taken it less seriously as just another load of marketing BS.
I'm not so sure about that, Brad couldn't stop rambling about features during the interview thing he did with the P99 staff. At first it sounded like they wanted to basically remake EQ in a new world and with a modern engine...but as he kept going on about new things I started to think about Vanguard as well. To his credit he did basically say that most of the ideas he was talking about were just ramblings and he had no idea if they could implement them.

I don't have a list of all the ideas he had, and I don't think I can handle listening to his slurred rambling again to put such a thing together. But he definitely talked about a lot more than just making an old school MMORPG.
