I have been much encouraged by two things that have been mentioned in various preview articles:
1. I wasn't the only one who was disappointed/highly underwhelmed by the E3 showing (I was starting to feel like I was taking about the Emperor's Clothes),
2. Previewers are talking positively about the game again.
Theoretically, in every way Brink is the game I have grown up to play. I want it to be all that it can be.
Yeah !! Duke is come back !!! :p with some duke girl and balls of steel !! :p

Big props to Rich Jolly and to Rahdo, I practically monopolized them for over an hour and got to talk about seemingly every single aspect of ETQW and Brink, they are really nice guys. I think I managed to impress upon them my feelings about ETQW's utter perfection and why Brink needs to have all the nice community and HUD features that ETQW has.
I feel like I owe them a beer tomorrow at Paddy Coyne's or the Blarney Stone pub, which is right across the street. Great time, I am looking forward to the next two days.
So what is your impression compared to the last viewing?
I think I preferred the translucent XP Pops rather than the bold green ones that cover a portion of the screen.
Looks pretty frantic.
The hud looks pretty nice. And game looked smooth.
These are the panels I'm going today in addition to running around the expo acquiring more swag:
