Someone must be gay, and they'll have to pay. There's no other way. A monthly fee? Olé!

Well, technically, he said those "terms" don't exist in Star Wars.  That's not quite the same thing as saying that homosexuality itself doesn't exist in Star Wars.  Its more like saying "beer" doesn't exist in Star Wars, because even though alcoholic beverages exist they aren't called that.  I honestly think that's the way he meant it, too- it just didn't seem like he was making a grandiose, overarching political statement. 
Unless we can no longer use English to talk in-game or on the forums, and must learn Galactic Basic or one of the other 6 million forms of communication in the Star Wars galaxy in order to be allowed to talk, any interpretation of the statement - about ANY topic - is nonsensical.  We're not actually speaking "their language", so obviously we must use the terms in our language in order to convey information.

My God.

If you're going to be on a video that's going to be shown to hundreds of thousands / millions of people, for fuck sake, make yourself look presentable.

I know the dress code for game developers is 'roll out of bed and wear the Tshirt you wore yesterday', but damn...Take some freaking PRIDE in way you look.

Dress for the job you WANT, not for the job you HAVE.

Umm, an couple artistic types in hoodies, a guy in a clean tshirt, and a guy in a polo don't strike me as odd. I think it'd seem less believable if they were all in suits. None of them look unkempt, all look fairly relaxed.

And presumably they HAVE the job they WANT.

I know I was expecting a diku/story experience, but damn this rough quote at ~1:00 scares me:

Then we have to guide the player through the experience.  Always needs to know where to go, also where they can explore or go off the beaten path. 

I hope it's not 100% linear.  That's going to make for a quick play if so.

That one clip where that guy was world editing zoomed way out kind of suggests that the open areas are rather small.

The woman had a pretty lousy style. Ugly glasses, unkempt hair and clothes and makeup. Probably a low self esteem too! Or maybe extremely high  why so serious?

Thousands of people, max.

All of them gamers, most of whom probably don't dress half as well anyway.

You have to rescue all the pets in the shop...umm..., boy.

Sorry. Best I can come up with on a Sunday night with a head cold.

I was on one of my benders watching 80's videos on YouTube, and pulled up West End Girls, saw that scene and thought...'Wow. He looks like an NPC in WoW.'.  That's actually a florescent light. I just kinda screwed with the color of the video grab. Not that this means anything to anyone anywhere anytime anyhow. It's Sunday night and I have a head cold.
