Sound off, experts!

RPG Vault at IGN has the second part of their 15th developer round table available for your reading pleasure.

To investigate the interesting, sometimes contentious questions, issues and differences of opinion that accompany such diversity, we created a series of Online Worlds Roundtables in which we ask game makers and those associated with them to share their respective knowledge and points of view via a panel format. The members aren't the same from one session to the next as we attempt to solicit input from as broad a range of sources as possible, and from individuals we know to be particularly close to each subject. As for the nature of the topics, the idea is to address a different one each time. This time, we followed our usual procedure of extending invitations to a number of our friends and acquaintances within the development community. The initial segment of our latest discussion consists of the five contributions that appear below.
