RPGamer conducted an interview with Erik Wang, the senior producer of Earth & Beyond, about Westwood Studios' upcoming massively multiplayer online RPG. Here's something:
RPGamer: How much of the story will the player be presented upon beginning the game?
Eric Wang: Because this is a massively-multiplayer game, we do have a robust and ever-changing story, but the player will ease into it gradually. Upon beginning the game, players will choose their race and profession, and through the tutorial will learn a bit about their history and their place in the story and the universe. As they progress through the game, they will speak to NPCs and go on missions that will reveal more and more of the story. In addition, we plan on introducing a race of bloodthirsty aliens a few months into the game that will dramatically alter the landscape of the game. |
