Sanya and Lum on Mythic Endeavors
heartless_ writes "Gamergod.com has part one of an interview with Scott Jennings and Sanya Weathers of Mythic Entertainment. The interview covers Darkness Rising, Dark Ages of Camelots' Realm vs Realm system, and the Korean gaming culture. Scott Jennings elaborated on the Korean gaming culture a bit: 'It is more of a technological thing. It is also kind of a cultural thing that in Korea, the cyber cafes are really seen as kind of skuzzy, not to put to fine a point on it, but they're very much like the back alley skid row bars we would go to here in the States. They are very much smoky elements that you do not want your kids to go to, that kind of thing.'"
I think we should all take a moment and analyze a few of these responses:
Scott: So we gave our most loyal customers the ability to destroy everyone else in the game.
Thats a very angry statement. Where is all this deep rooted hatred coming from? Why must we be violent to each other just to have a good time. Terrible message and I'd be ashamed to promote such activities.
On a personal note I'm not surprised to hear something like this coming out of Scott "Lum the Mad" Jennings. It's just another MMOG scandal and another in a long list of recent controversies surronding SJ. The e3 Shadowbane vice bust when the California arrested the wolfpac gang for being the pimps that they are. Second hand reports claim SJ was standing naked next to two midget twin interns and a jr programmer named larry. Bending over and rubbing sour ketchup all over them.
Yet he has the nerve.... to say that gaming cafe's in Korea is bad. PFFFT. I'll tell you go find a picture of Scott Jennings then compare it to a photo of a cool slick yuppie korean gaming cafe and tell me who you'd trust.
I'll make you a deal. You pray to God for help and I'll stop the moment he shows up.
