FanSite Summit Recap Part 3: Writer Q & A, Georg Zoeller Interview

May 032011

FanSite Summit Recap, Part 1 here.
FanSite Summit Recap, Part 2 here.

Body parts intact, Blaine and Daniel wrapped up the last few questions, and then it was time for lunch. We wandered into the common area just outside the kitchen and saw long tables laden with Texas barbecue. Nothing was labeled, but it was clearly meat, meat, more meat, and giant bottles of smoky barbecue sauce. And white bread! I was really excited to eat something I have studiously avoided for the past twenty-five years. Continue reading »

FanSite Summit: Kathy’s Bounty Hunter & Smuggler Hands-On

May 022011

The Fansite Summit was the first time I got to play an origin world. We were given the choice of playing either a Bounty Hunter or an Imperial Agent. Since Carla picked the Agent, I went with the BH.

New playable species? MMmmmaybe.
No third party add ons at release.

More highlights plus Georg’s reaction to our Yes/No/Pass game after the jump Continue reading »

FanSite Summit: Writers Q&A

Apr 292011

After lunch (all kinds of BBQ), the BioWare writing team visited us for a Q&A session. They mostly talked about their craft, the parts of the game they’re working on, but we got some interesting tidbits:

There is no in-game feature for player to player marriage.
What about player to companion marriage? Daniel said, “That one is still in the possibility camp.” Continue reading »

FanSite Summit Recap, Part 2, Morning: Studio Tour, Dev Q&As

Apr 282011

Lobby, BioWare

Monday arrived, gray and drizzly, but that did little to dampen our excitement over what the day had in store. After breakfast Carla and I gathered our things and left the hotel for BioWare.

But first, a brief recap of three conversations I had with Carla: Continue reading »
