Kevin Osburn Interview

Xbox Evolved had the chance to interview Black Isle’s Kevin Osburn, in which they ask him questions about their console RPG, Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance. Check it out:


    Q: What features did you include in the game that will make a gamer want to play the game, and not pass it for (another RPG)?

    A: One feature that we made sure to include was having the game utilize the 3rd Edition Dungeons & Dragons rules, the first of its kind to make its way onto the Xbox. We also knew it was important that the user had plenty of items to choose from in the game, which is why a random item generator was created. In BGDA, about 90% of the items you find are randomly generated which opens up an almost endless possibility of items in the game. Plus we made sure that although the game utilizes the 3rd Edition D&D rules, anybody can still play the game, even someone who has never played or even heard of D&D can play the game to its fullest potential.
