BG2: Throne of Bhaal Developer Profile

RPGVault has posted up a developer profile of Matt Goldman, one of the artists that worked on Baldur’s Gate II, and now Art Director for its upcoming expansion pack. Here’s a clip:


    Jonric: Now that you’re a game developer, do you still have the opportunity play a lot of games? Have you played any recently that you’ve really enjoyed? Which games are you currently looking forward to playing?

    Matt Goldman: Games are the next highest form of entertainment after movies, for me at least. I haven’t had cable for many years. I hope that eventually we’ll be able to create an interactive, entertainment experience that has the intensity of a great film, but with the interactivity only gaming can provide. As for games I really like, I can say, without an ounce of irony, that Baldur’s Gate II and MDK2 are two of the most fun and best turned out games I’ve ever played. Aside from future BioWare games, I think that Black Isle’s Torment, Relic’s Homeworld and Shiny’s Sacrifice are games that represent the finest blend of story, game play and great art that have yet made it onto the PC.
