An interview with Scott "Chupas Kabra" Herrington, executive producer for Shadowbane at Ubi Soft Entertainment, is online now at Shadowbane Warcry. Here's a part of this article:
    J.: Is this a game you think you'd want to play?

    Scott: That's probably the question I get asked the most about any game that I've worked on. Yes, it's a game I want to play (and am currently enjoying playing the beta versions!) But, that's my personal opinion. I know a lot of people in the industry who use that as a criteria for whether or not they'll make a game, but it's not something that I do. If that were the case, I'd make games that had a very limited appeal (appealing only to me).

    I look at games I work on objectively and say, "This game is supposed to appeal to a certain type of gamer. Does it? If not, what does it need? How can it be made better?" Even if it's not a game I would play, say, a turn-based civil war strategy game, it's my job to make sure it's the best game it can be and has all the features that would appeal to its target audience. I didn't get hired to make a game I wanted to play, I got hired to make a game that gamers want to play.
