-Severlin did an interview about DDO 64 bit: http://www.mmo-central.com/2019/04/05/pax-east-2019-interview-with-standing-stone-games-rob-severlin-ciccolini/
In this interview when Severlin was asked about the racial variant from the Producers Letter he had this to say; Ciccolini: So, it’s gonna be Drow. But we’re second-guessing whether we want that to be the next one or something different. That’s why we don’t want to say.... Ciccolini: Yeah, we have a current Drow that is the Khorvaire Drow, it’s the race from Eberron. We might want to do a Forgotten Realms treatise on it that would be different. There’s some devs on the team who are like, “Well, instead we should do this other race…”, so we’ve been waffling on it. So that’s the only reason why we haven’t mentioned it specifically and me and Cordovan are looking at each other because we don’t know if we’re going to do that one yet.
^ Cordovan on the Wednesday livestream mentions on this topic: "We also would like to do PDK and Half Elf." He also mentioned that there can be a time in DDO where they release a bunch of variants, so that would be a fun thing to look forward to.
When asked about the new class Sev had this to say; Ciccolini: Probably end of year. It will be a utility/casting type class?... Ciccolini: I would not be surprised if it was a class that made use of all sorts of gadgets and magical things like filters and bottles and other such things.
-Sharn release is set for April 30th which is basically a lil over two weeks from now.
