I believe that Vergeben was right on the fundamentals but not the specifics. We did indeed get both Hwang and Lizardman in the game just not how he thought (unless that's to come), He said voice lines were in for Cassandra but that it wasn't as detailed as the other characters (it's possible at this time there was no voice actor or portrait yet), Kilik and Groh do face off against each other, Azwel does have a connection to Groh considering he created his malfested form, and he said Raphael fans would sweat (last character to be revealed...possibly meant he was the farthest behind work wise).
I think there is a very real possibility that Vergeben was getting his information from his source who worked in either the voice acting department or the QA department and if I remember correctly about the time he revealed Azwel (Hwang/Lizzie) based info his source either got found out (fired) or left the company. Everything after June/July was speculation on his part based on what his old source had told him...unless he had another source that worked in a different or the same department. Game development is often kept separate...working in voice acting for example would only get part of the information across. The Groh & Kilik scene and the fact they interact later easily could have been misinterpreted. The problems were where he tried to speculate on the limited information he had.
Regardless one cannot deny that Vergeben kept the speculation alive and helped increase hype and helped us set some expectations for what to expect with the game.
Yeah. People are just fishing, bashing him to see if they can trigger him to crawl out the woodwork and give them some new info.
