D&D Daggerdale - Interview @ Eurogamer

by Dhruin, 2011-02-03 21:34:10

Eurogamer has interviewed Zandro Chan from Bedlam Games on their co-op D&D game, Daggerdale:

Eurogamer: How faithful is that to 4th Edition Dungeons & Dragons?

Zandro Chan: Everything we have system-wise in Daggerdale is based off of 4th Edition rules. We work extremely closely with Wizards of the Coast to streamline their system to make it work for an action RPG. A lot of their systems are actually in there, but because it is an action title as well as an RPG we truncated a number of different rules. And we worked with them to get that working properly.

Eurogamer: Why did you opt for an action game over a traditional turn-based D&D RPG?

Zandro Chan: We chose to go the action RPG route because it's something that the team felt very passionately about. It takes the two great loves that the team has and marries them together in a really cool, unique experience. So brawling is something that we all really enjoy, the action side of it brings with it a lot of opportunities to create white-knuckle gameplay. It's something we think fits really well with the RPG portion of it, which allows us to develop a character and customise that character through a longer period of time.
