Guild Wars: Eye of the North - interview
Lead designer shares details on new skills, the Charr homeland, and thoughts on sexy dance numbers
GR: We understand you'll be able to explore the Charr homeland.
Miller: And kill them!
GR: But will you be able to get quests from them? Will they be their own sort of faction?
Miller: They aren't going to be their own allegiance. And they're not going to have their own title track. But the story itself involving them is really compelling and it's better to experience it for your…
Lye: We don't want to give too much away. I think what we can say though is that we treat the Charr in a way that's a little bit more complex in Eye of the North. So they don't seem like - you know - just this bad maniacal race. We actually provide a greater insight into the Charr society so you understand that some of them are not completely aligned with each other.
Miller: Yeah. You'll get to see the full breadth and width of Charr society. And I think it's going to be one of the more entertaining and compelling parts of the story and probably one of the coolest narrative things that we've done.
