We stopped by the Naga Theater at the Hynes Convention Center to check out the City of Heroes panel, “Re-Inventing a Superheroic MMO” at PAX East this weekend and we’ve got quite a bit to talk about! The panelists included: Senior Design Lead Matt “Positron” Miller, Producer Jesse “Ghost Falcon” Caceras, Design Lead Melissa “War Witch” Bianco, and finally City of Heroes Art Lead David Nakayama.
The panel kicked off with a bit of a Cryptic Studios/Paragon Studios 101, going back over City of Heroes’ storied history as far back as the inception of Cryptic Studios. Of the original launch team, four members are still around. Curiously, they mention that when Cryptic Studios sold off the IP most of the original CoH team decided to stay with City of Heroes over at NCsoft instead of sticking with Cryptic, yet only four members are still a part of the City of Heroes team. Perhaps many have left since then? Or perhaps they are working on a super secret project on another team? Hmm!
