Carrying the Torch – Asheron’s Call Live Team

It has been said that the quality of work is directly relational to the drive of those behind it. If this is true, then there could be no more ambitious a task than building and maintaining a world such as Asheron's Call's Dereth. When the servers turned on that fateful day in November 1999, thousands of gamers flocked into Dereth encountering one of the most colorful and inventive persistent worlds ever devised. However, as they adventured in their new world players also found a new feature, unique to online games: regular content updates providing new quests, monsters and a continued story line.
