PCPowerPlay interview

This one was interesting for me because it’s the first time I’ve been interviewed over voice chat. It comes across a lot more authentic and casual than when you have time to think about the questions and formulate an eloquent answer, which often gets pretty artificial. Unfortunately it also exposes that I’m substantially less eloquent over the phone than in writing, because I don’t have as much practice speaking English as writing it. I ramble more and I pause more.

Also interviewed were Shane and Lawrence, both of whom contribute with interesting points, but since this is my blog, I’m totally going to use one of my own quotes:

Jonas: Yeah, I think the main reason a lot of mods are very traditional is that people like Star Wars, so they make Star Wars mods. And, you know, that’s fair enough, but we wanted to do something strange, and unique, because we could. We had no obligation to sell two million copies, for example, so we could be as strange and arty as we wanted to be.

Of further note is that the German magazine GameStar gave The Nameless Mod a full-page review in their latest issue. We scored 5/5 for Design, 5/5 for Scope, and 5/5 for Fun. This pleases us.
