Lineage II Interview

Strategy Informer has an interview with NCSoft’s Tim Tan about Lineage II’s latest expansion pack.

Mike Bowden: Congratulations on getting The Kamael expansion pack finished. Can you tell us how the name Kamael comes about?

Tim Tan: The Kamael are one-winged soldiers with affinity to dark magic. We decided to call this expansion the Kamael because of its massive impact to the game. The major goal for each expansion is to introduce a new world of playability to those devoted to Lineage II and those who want to give it a try. In my mind, the new race lets players enjoy new starting content and a chance to revisit some of the old mid- to high-level content while unlocking the mysteries of the long-forgotten Kamael.

I also want to add that an entire new race was what the players have been asking for over the years and we have been wanted to give it to them, but adding an entire new race wasn’t as straightforward as one might imagine. We had to take into account of how this new race was to be played and how it would fit in Lineage II history. We are finally here and the Kamael race is proven to be quiet popular among our players!
