Neverwinter Nights Community Interview at NW Vault
Posted Saturday, May 24, 2003 - 15:29 CET by Mollusken
Neverwinter Vault has posted an interview with two community leaders, Athena and Orleron, who have joined their persistent worlds together in a revolutionary way.
Recently you announced that Avlis and Mythos are linking their worlds up in a unique way. Before we get into the how, could you discuss the why?
Orleron: Why? Because that is what NWN is for. NWN is the closest thing to D&D we have online, and in pen and paper D&D you can go ANYWHERE and do ANYTHING. By linking worlds together in a balanced and compatible way, you make the computer game more similar to the pen and paper game in terms of its vastness of exploration area and content. My dream is to construct a nearly endless realm where players can keep themselves busy for years. It's what UO and EQ SHOULD have been, except we can do it a lot cooler. :)
Orleron: Well, Orleron and I have been in contact since the very initial stages of each of our PW's. We have helped one another with ideas and processes since then. That is the main reason why our two Pws are so compatible-- which is a *must* have for a linkup to take place. Our worlds complement each other well... same, yet totally different, I am sure our players agree. We are roleplayers by heart and our modules and distinguished community are a perfect example. Our main goal.... maximize the game to its full potential.
