| HoMM 5: Developer Diary #1 @ Official Site |
|
Over on the HoMM V "Official <a href="http://" target="_blank">Site</a>", their staff have posted up the first Developer Diary entitled "Revamping The M&M Universe"...
<br>
<br><blockquote><em>1. First of all, could you introduce yourself and explain us what is your job on HOMM 5?
<br>
<br>Erwan
<br>
<br>My name is Erwan Le Breton, Might & Magic Content Director at Ubisoft.
<br>
<br>My quest is to build the new world of Might & Magic that will be the setting of all the current and future M&M games produced and / or published by Ubisoft.
<br>
<br>And my favourite colour is red (for those with an unhealthy obsession for the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow.)
<br>
<br>Outside of Ubisoft, I’m a published writer, author of a dozen pen & paper RPGs, children’s novels, and comic books for various French publishers.
<br>
<br>Richard
<br>
<br>I’m Richard Dansky, Might & Magic World Designer at Ubisoft.
<br>
<br>I’v0e worked on numerous games for Ubi, including Far Cry, Ghost Recon: Island Thunder, and Cold Fear, and before that I contributed to roughly 130 roleplaying books for White Wolf. I’ve published four novels, including the fantasy series The Trilogy of the Second Age, and various other bits of fiction.
<br>
<br>Outside of work, I enjoy building large wooden badgers, and running about with silly knees-bent advancing behaviours.</em></blockquote> |

There are some quite strong reactions on this Diary on http://www.celestialheavens.com/
Myself I am of'course sad to see the old good worlds go for a new one which seems to be some mainstream fantasy cliché. And for removing the one trait which made M&M really special, Sci-fi elements? Plain bad.
But I also see hope when Ubi seems to take the title seriously and sets several designers on just creating background for a new world. I look to the future with faith and hope.
