Daily Telefrag sat down with Stepan Zlotov for an interview about Sphere, an MMORPG from Moscow-based Nikita company (makers of Iron Strategy and Safari Biathlon) (we reported about the first screenshots four days ago). With the interview, they have six new screenshots as well. Here's a bit from their Q&A:
DTF: Please give us a short overview of the game. What's the gameplay like? Do you borrow much from numerous MMORPGs that cram the 'net today?
Stepan Zotov: I'm afraid that overview of the game plot would take too much time. In a nutshell, the game takes place in a parallel world, the Sphere. This realm was brought to life as a result of internecine conflicts between powerful mages. Mere existence of Sphere is a threat to real world, which is Earth as we know it. Everything that happens out there in Sphere has its counterpart in our reality. It is due to inner Sphere conflicts that our world is ulcered with wars, diseases and natural cataclysms. Inhabitants of Sphere descended from mages who created it, and they were practicing magic for the centuries, whereas we were developing science, machinery, and engineering. Sphere is crowded with noble knights and dreadful necromants, grand dragons and disgusting zombies. As to Sphere's likeness in the multitude of MMORPGs, well, it won't be just another faceless clone. But it's really hard to create something completely out of this world, so we shall preserve certain traits inherent to any MMORPG out there.
