OXM: Interview mit Pete Hines

[Mr.Wolna]

Die Internetseite OXM führte ein Interview mit Pete Hines über Bethesda, die Fallout 3 Download-Addons und die Fallout Lizenz. Kurze Auszüge:

And is Broken Steel the last DLC for Fallout 3?
Yes, that's the third of the three things. Whether it's the absolute last one remains to be seen. Because it's been hugely successful. Operation Anchorage vastly exceeded our expectation. It was like "holy shit, we did how many?" And the Pitt was really successful, after a bit of a false start.

But Broken Steel is the one that. when we first announced all three, this is the one that everyone has been bugging us the most about, because it removes the ending and changes the level cap and lets you play more in that world. I think it's going to be hugely, hugely popular.

I'm expecting a big no here, but is there an official comment on the Interplay / Bethesda situation?
I'll give you a bit more than a 'no'. It's a whole legal thing and we let the lawyers sort out what takes place there and when they come to a resolution we'll have information to share and we'll let folks know. Something like that there's legal involved, PR is the least of our concern.

Anything on a Fallout MMO then?
It's to be seen. Our intention is that Fallout is ours, we went to great lengths to acquire it. It wasn't just something we were working on but something we owned. We want to make sure whatever it is we do is appropriate and we have a lot of love for it and respect for it.

Look, we ran a gauntlet for four and a half years doing this - there was a lot of folks weren't really sure if we were the right guys to have this. Were we going to fuck it up and destroy what was beautiful? But for the most part I think we've proven that we can be stewards for this thing and take care of it.

Wenn du da mal nicht vorgreifst - ich bin bei dem Satz "Whether it's the absolute last one remains to be seen." noch voller "Hoffnung" 

[Lexx]

Er sagt selber, dass die DLCs ein voller Erfolg waren, da wird man nicht einfach drauf sitzen bleiben. "Broken Steel" ist lediglich das letzte der drei angekündigten DLCs.

Lol die letzten 2 Sätze soll man da lachen oder lieber weinen
