SWG Warcry has conducted an interview with Haden "Shug_Ninx" Blackman (Lucas Arts Producer) of SOE's/Lucas' Star Wars MMORPG.
Here's a snip:[Tark] Has George Lucas taken part in any of the decisions for SWG? If so, how often is he called upon to make those decisions?
[Haden Blackman] Fortunately for LucasArts, and Star Wars Galaxies specifically, Lucasfilm Licensing has a dedicated team to help us through the approval process. I've been in constant communication with our key contacts at Lucasfilm since the project's inception. They've approved everything from our choices in playable species to our starting worlds. George Lucas has been consulted on anything that might tread into Episode II or Episode III material. So, when we decided that we wanted to include Naboo as one of our planets (a decision that was made well before the release of Episode II), he had to weigh in on this and give us a seal of approval. Honestly, though, Lucasfilm Licensing exists so that George Lucas doesn't have to be involved with every single decision we make in terms of game design. |
