Chris Avellone Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 Passed on from Ferret Baudoin (NWN2 lead designer and all around good-guy), in case any of you are in the SoCal area and want to ask NWN2 or Kotor2 questions in a forum where we can't get away, or just say hello: Gen Con is this weekend at the Anaheim Convention Center and on Sunday Obsidian has two panels. Our panels start at 10am and going until 1pm. If you can make it, please swing by and join in on the fun. 10am to 12pm: Breaking Into the Computer Game Industry Developers at Obsidian Entertainment (creators of Knights of the Old Republic 2 and Neverwinter Nights 2) talk about what it takes to get into the computer gaming industry. They talk about hiring trends, answer audience questions, and share their personal experiences of how they broke into the industry. If you ever wanted to make computer games for a living, here
Judge Hades Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 If I was in the area I would go to it, but I am stuck in Hell, Iowa. *sniff*
Darth_Gandalf Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 May we have a Designer Rambling today too? "You shall not pass!"
Tel Aviv Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 Wish I could be there, but I have to work on sunday. OH. And I live in england.
kumquatq3 Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 What we need is a Proxy for the Q&A part, somebody to take the groups questions
kumquatq3 Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 If I was in the area I would go to it, but I am stuck in Hell, Iowa. *sniff* <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'd hate to think what would happen if you got in a room full of Obsidian/Ex-BIS devs. It would take days to get all the blood stains out
Judge Hades Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 HAHAHAHA! That is why I would go incognito.
GhostofAnakin Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 If I was in the area I would go to it, but I am stuck in Hell, Iowa. *sniff* <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'd hate to think what would happen if you got in a room full of Obsidian/Ex-BIS devs. It would take days to get all the blood stains out <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I could just see Feargie and the boys hanging Hades from the ceiling and taking swings at him with a wooden stick.

Aurora Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 So there's some way I can sneak in for free, right? I am following my fish. A temporary home for stranded ML'ers
Ameorn Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 Why can't you have these kind of things in sweden once in a while? I mean we have powerful nations who have peacetalks in Stockholm from time to time, you should do the same :D
Lady Revan Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 I'd love a chance to go to something of this nature. Sadly, I live on the opposite coast. And final exams are coming up. Why is it that Ca gets all the fun gaming events? Poor east coast feels left out....
starwarskid15_19 Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 why cant you do this in the midwest then hades can go and there will be a fight (trust me) and ill watch and laugh the force is what gives a jedi his power. its an energy field created by all living things. it surrounds us and penetrates us. it binds the galaxy together
Ivan the Terrible Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 If everyone at the Convention takes a bus trip to Kansas City, Missouri, I'll be there. I made this half-pony half-monkey monster to please you But I get the feeling that you don't like it What's with all the screaming? You like monkeys, you like ponies Maybe you don't like monsters so much Maybe I used too many monkeys Isn't it enough to know that I ruined a pony making a gift for you?
Volourn Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 I'll pass. Me being in the room with mr. Avellone would be liable to get me murdered and them put in pirson which would suck for everyone elkse as it would mena less quality games being made. I couldn't die with that on my concious. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Judge Hades Posted December 2, 2004 Posted December 2, 2004 why cant you do this in the midwest then hades can go and there will be a fight (trust me) and ill watch and laugh <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If we still had CyCon, a local gaming convention we use to have at the university, I would more the willing invite the buggers of Obsidian to come. I would let them stay at my apartment to boot. We could play DnD. BWAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAA!
Master Jedi Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 why cant you do this in the midwest then hades can go and there will be a fight (trust me) and ill watch and laugh <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If we still had CyCon, a local gaming convention we use to have at the university, I would more the willing invite the buggers of Obsidian to come.

BWAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAAAAAAAAA! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Now why would they want ot stay wiht their noumber one whinger's place where they are liable to get locked in and forced to rewrite half the game so it complies with Hades standards, that is one hell of a bad idea(pun intended)

Maria Caliban Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 I'm a day's ride from SoCal. If this had been posted even a week beforehand I could have made plans as a friend of mine who lives in the area is in Japan this week. There is a question I've been meaning to ask, however. Do any women work at Obsidian? "When is this out. I can't wait to play it so I can talk at length about how bad it is." - Gorgon.
