The text-based interview is at CVG with senior producer Wes Yanagi:
EverQuest and World of Warcraft have established plenty of MMO clichés generally attached to the fantasy genre, such as levelling up and character classes. Have you tried to avoid these?
Yanagi: There's a difference between a cliché and a convention. Elves might be somewhat cliché at this point, but there are a lot of MMO conventions that we'll definitely be using because they work.
So as you're blasting your way through S.T.A.R. Labs, you will be gaining experience and cool loot. Everyone loves loot, right? One thing about DCUO that's pretty compelling is how it incorporates so many story genres. I mean, you've got sci-fi, you've got mutants, and you've got some horror elements, just to name a few. The possibilities are practically endless.
While the ten-minute audio interview is at GamesRadar with creative director Jens Andersen.
Then we have the two video previews, which can be found at G4 and GameTrailers.
