Slashdot Mirror
Ex-Blizzard lead men, Strain and O'Brian, Profiled
obchrisj writes "Wondering how Guild Wars came to be? FileFront profiles the conceptualizing, trials, and tribulations of ArenaNet's MMORPG, slated to be released sometime early this year, in an article titled, "F! True Game Story: Guild Wars". In case you're not in the know, Guild Wars was started by well-known ex-Blizzard employees, Jeff Strain and Mike O'Brian."
Get a grip man, birth of a person isn't that exciting. It's how you parent and love a child that matters, not oggling some baby being squirt into the world. Christ man. Some people have a passion for what they do, and just because the guy had passion for his work doesn't mean he's an idiot. The games industry and especially blizzard would like their employee's to be pretty hardcore about games and play them enough to understand them and from their track record of hits, guys like these are exactly why we have such awesome games.
Come on, we don't need every Filefront article to be on Slashdot. People like me who care check Filefront and people who don't care obviously don't want to see it. On the other hand, nice article. The more we know about game developers, the better. And not just the 5 people who get recognition.
Against stupidity the Gods themselves contend in vain.
