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!
style="font-style: italic;">Q: Who is your favorite
Champions character?
A:
style="font-style: italic;">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.
style="font-style: italic;">
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.
