Electric Playground has posted an interview with Chris Taylor. Here's a bit from that:
BJ: The Dungeon Siege press release quotes you as being a "gaming visionary." What are your thoughts on that; selling the game on your name?
CT: Hmmm.. yeah. There aren't a lot of words available to really describe someone like me. Someone who cares so much about the business, who is artistically invested, almost more so than I am financially, in terms of I'm not doing this for money. If I wanted to do this for money, I wouldn't be doing this because there are a lot easier ways I think to make money. So they try to use words like "visionary" or "illuminary" or something, but in truth I think it's because there is no word to describe someone who just is so into what they're doing they want to share it with people. The name on the box thing is a funny part of it because what I think it helps people to do is to become more invested in a company and a name where they know they can go and get a quality experience. You're not just going to see my name on a box of something that's not very well crafted. We're trying to bring together a bunch of elements. And my name may disappear off the box because Gas Powered Games is the name. But I think for this first title we wanted people who remember Total Annihilation to know that the same kind of design was going into Dungeon Siege. |
