However, I bet no one knew exactly how hard it would be to pull it off and to sell it to the gamers. At the Game Developer’s Conference right here in Austin, story covering what Schubert says at the conference and their own take on it.
Massively reports:
At the Game Developers Conference in Austin, Texas, this week, Schubert spent an hour explaining the GDC Online since the launch of SWTOR, Schubert spoke frankly and openly about many of the struggles his team had to overcome to make the gaming systems work.
