At GDC, Jon Wood attended a roundtable led by Daimon Schubert from BioWare Austin.
Yesterday was another great day at the Game Developers Conference (GDC) for MMORPG.com. Not only did the show floor actually open today, but it also kicked off a number of game development seminars.

The session was led by Daimon Schubert from BioWare Austin (I asked, they're still not giving any information about what they're making).
At last year's GDC, Daimon ran a seminar by the same name where he talked about the reasons that the fantasy genre was king in the MMORPG realm. This year, the topic was the same, but the format was different. Instead of standing at the front of the room and talking for an hour, Schubert chose to open the discussion up to a room full of developers. The question was simple. Why fantasy?
