RPG Vault has released Part 3 of the Online Worlds Roundtable #10.
Here is a snippet on the topic:
Topic: Build it and Will They Come?
In this Roundtable, we invited the participants to comment on why the massively multiplayer category has not grown as quickly as various observers predicted a few years ago. The statements below include frequent references to observations made in Part 1 and Part 2 of this roundtable.
The following game developers participated in Part 3:
-
Mark Jacobs, President/CEO of Mythic Entertainment
-
Peter Tyson, Community Liason Manager with Codemasters
-
Toby Ragaini, Lead Designer with Monolith Productions
-
Gaute Godager, Game Director with Funcom
-
Dave Cerra, CEO of Sojourn Development
This Online Worlds Roundtable is definitely worthwhile to read and contemplate. Afterall, who is more able to comment on the MMORPG industry than the people who take part in it?
If you have been keeping track, jump right into Part 3. However, if this is your first time it is recommended you jump back to Part 1 or Part 2 and read from there.
