Ex-LucasArts Developers Try Vampyre Graphical Adventure

Thanks to an anonymous reader for pointing to an AdventureGamers interview with ex-LucasArts developers Autumn Moon Entertainment regarding its early-in-development graphical adventure A Vampyre Story. They explain: "With the drop in sales for [the traditional graphical adventure] genre, it became harder to get assigned to new adventure game projects at [LucasArts]. It seemed like the only logical way to be a part of that kind of project again was to create something independently." The late-2005 due project is still seeking a publisher, but is further profiled in the June 2004 Inventory PDF magazine, and the interview also explains the plot ("A young French opera star becomes the object of obsession for a deranged vampire... She must escape his castle and return to Paris"), and possible game duration ("The game will be shorter than Curse of Monkey Island and longer than Full Throttle.")

    Bah, any self-respecting GNAA member would be using a h4x0r3d computer account to post. Probably routing their traffic through a compromised router somewhere in the Orient, and across a war-dialer-discovered 2400 baud modem link out of some poor Afghanistan mother's basement.

    The GNAA is everywhere, it is all around us, even now in this very message thread. You can see them when you look out your window, or when you turn on your television. You can feel them when you go to work, when you go to church, when you pay your taxes. They are the trolls that have been pulled over your virtual eyes to blind you from the truth.
