Kerry Fraser-Robinson, the lead mind behind Roma Victor, has dropped by our new Roma Victor Discussion Forums to address profit and the motivation of RedBedlam.
Who is the more foolish - the fool or the fool who follows him? ;)
Actually RedBedlam does not have the profit-only motivation that nearly every other MMORPG developer does. I posted about this old chestnut here - it's really only a perception experienced by newcomers to the RV community. :) I personally believe that making happy players is a better priority than the profit line. If we have enough happy players and the VERM is working fairly, then money shouldn't be a problem. Fortunately this view is shared by the entire management team at the company, as well as the Managing Director and majority shareholder - me. Hello by the way - just thought I'd stop by and check out the new forums. |
