What's Up with Mabinogi?
When MapleStory was released on November 28, 2006, many North American
industry journalists and critics wrote the game off saying that it was
too childish and the graphics were sub-par. However, the game now
sports millions of users and generates a massive amount of revenue for
its development company, Nexon. Now Nexon has released their latest
offering, Mabinogi, which is another venture into a world where
anything is possible even if it means a simpler style of graphics. Even
with a review already published about the game, Ten Ton Hammer's Cody
"Micajah" Bye sat down with Ray Cheon, Product Manager and Senior
Associate for Game Planning and Design for Nexon, to get a few intimate
details about the future of the game!
Ten Ton
Hammer: Now that the game has been officially released,
what's
next for the title? When will players begin hearing about the first
free update, and what will that include?
Ray: I
can't reveal too much information about our future updates but
we are going to release Generation 2 Season 1 (G2S1) of Mabinogi in
May. In this update, we are going to release Generation 2 Mainstream
Quests, more maps, more dungeons, more items, more skills, and much
more. Soon, we'll have plenty of details about G2 update on our href="http://mabinogi.nexon.net">website.
