Imperator News - What Does a Designer Play?

Posted by Dana Massey on Jun 09, 2005 | 0 comments in our forums

Mike Lescault, a member of the Imperator design team, dropped by our new Imperator Forums to discuss his gaming history. It is an interesting look behind the curtain at someone who makes these games.

History-wise, I spent a lot of time playing UO and EQ when those two games came out. Those were the games that started many of us onto our MMO addictions. After that, AO gave us our first real taste of a Sci-Fi MMO and I got my Omni-Tek Doctor up to level 112 or so before he retired. In E&B I played a Jenqui Defender and Scout up to the 140s. In SWG I managed to get Master Squad Leader and Master Carbineer in service of the Empire before retiring. I spent a lot of time with COH, and despite making a zillion new characters, I didn't manage to get any past 30.

Currently, my friends and I seem to be spliiting our time playing DAOC, EQ2, WoW, and Guild Wars. We're also eagerly looking forward to a lot of the interesting and innovative games in development.
