Shadowbane Interview

The guys over at The Corporation had the chance to chat with five members of the Shadowbane development team and have posted a transcript of what was talked about. Here’s a snip about content:

Q: What do you feel the players are most interested in or concerned with currently, content-wise? Do you feel you’re eye-to-eye with the player base as far as the game’s direction goes?

Ashen_Temper:You will never please everyone, Bucky… so with some, yes. Some, no.

Meridian_WP: whoa – that’s a hard-hitting question

Ubiq_WP:Given that the number one requested feature from players for the recent past has been ‘Resources’, I’d say that we meet fairly closely

Vosx: Yes Bucky (sorry for late reply) I think you should expect to see a similar promotion in the very near future.

Meridian_WP: From what we’ve seen, they want a solid, stable game they can play, and they want really good PvP/sieging

Ubiq_WP:Of course, there are always clashes between what the players want and what the designers think the players need, but for the most part, the player suggestions drives a lot of our discussions

Meridian_WP: Now, we may differ on the means, but the goals are the same.
