Star Wars Galaxies: Interview with Haden Blackman over on HomeLan

HomeLan Fed has a interview with none other then Haden Blackman, aka Shug_Ninx! Here is a snippet of their interview:

HomeLAN - Since Star Wars: Galaxies will likely have people who have never played this type of PC game before, what is Sony Online and LucasArts doing to make the game easy to get into and enjoy?

Haden Blackman - First, we'll have a pretty thorough newbie tutorial. We're also trying to ensure that the controls are intuitive - nearly everyone knows how to use a mouse, so the mouse if your primary means of interacting with the world (though we have default configurations for various playstyles). We put in mission terminals to allow you to grab a mission and just go adventure. We hope that, on the surface, the UI is simple and elegant; all the complexity is hidden until you need it. Maybe most importantly, we're encouraging advanced players to interact with new players - anyone can group with anyone else fruitfully; we have an apprenticeship system that requires advanced players to teach skills to new players; and new players craft components that advanced players use.

Wow pretty nice interview there, if you want more of Haden, check out our latest interview with him here!
