Might & Magic X: Legacy Meet the Ancients: Chris Vanover

The latest Meet the Ancients Q&A on the Might & Magic X: Legacy blog is with Chris Vanover, noted for his contributions to both the main Might and Magic series and its Heroes of Might and Magic spin-off. Here’s a snip:

5. When developing a game in general, what do you aim for?

The first thing I aim for is the game’s core. If you can create something that’s simple to understand and fun and engaging to play, you’ll have a much easier time layering systems that enhance and support the game’s core mechanic.

6. What are you currently playing, and how do you like it?

Civilization V and World of Tanks currently occupy the lion’s share of my leisure time. I’ve been a series-long fan of Civ, and WoT allows for bite-sized bits of fun when gaming time is short.

7. Would you rather be a human, elf, dwarf or orc, and why?

Human, but only because many games tend to restrict other races from key pieces of progression or gear. Dear other games, please stop doing that.

8. Apart from games, what fascinates you?

Aviation, motorsport, history, astronomy. Not necessarily in that order. 🙂
