Well While we wait for the Video Diary Here's an update from Mike West Lead Scripter, Fable 2
Well While we wait for the Video Diary Here's an update from Mike West Lead Scripter, Fable 2
SourceMike West said:[FONT=Black Chancery, Comic Sans MS]Well, here we are on the Friday before Christmas (I got told off by Sam for typing 'xmas', it's so many letters less, i'm getting RSI now) with the first milestone build submitted to MS, and my wonderful script team in heavy bug-fixing mode.
Well, it's been a hell of week, probably one of those 55 hour ones for me, and a few more for some of the androids on my team, but it looks as if the game's core quests are going to make it for Peter and MS to play through, Hurrah!
Now fingers crossed we don't have to come in at the weekend.
The game is really starting to come together for the first time now, we have placeholder voices in for all the core scripts, and the first villager voices have been recorded along with a couple of the major characters. We have some interesting voice talent on Fable 2, but i'll be shot if i let anything out of the bag, i'll leave it saying some [/FONT]quintessentially[FONT=Black Chancery, Comic Sans MS] English people will lend themselves to the world of Albion, should be a great addition to the sound of the game.
The regions are starting to look great, the lighting is working well, and more importantly, the game is getting a lot more stable.
And so i leave you now, the next major moment in this project is mid-January where we see what Peter and MS think of the game so far, and see what ends up being tweaked for the actual game...
Merry Xmas all!
Can anyone give me a lift to Devon on Monday afternoon?
