Champions Online Dev Profile - Alan Salmassian

Tags: in

Posted June 27th, 2008 by Cody Bye

To get behind the scenes in your favorite game, it often requires a person to really get to know the individuals creating that game and discover how their personailty affects the creation of that world. The developers at Cryptic Studios have been hard at work allowing gamers this sort of intimate access into their personal thoughts and feelings about Champions Online. Recently, the Cryptic development team unveiled their latest developer profile, which focuses on Alan Salmassian, the acting quality assurance lead tester, and Ten Ton Hammer has posted the interview for you to enjoy!

Q: Who is your favorite Champions character?
A: My favorite character was one my brother made many years ago when we played the pen-and-paper version. I'll never forget Animan, the alien surfer who could change shape to become any animal my brother wanted. Of course, he didn't want to use the points to make giant versions of the animals that would scare bad guys and be useful in game terms; he just wanted to make regular animals.

I hope that someday we can provide everyone else with that amazing power framework, too. The genius part is that you can't really nerf it, 'cause it's already so soft and cuddly.
