On Thursday, I had the opportunity to sit down with Joe Ybarra, the Vice President of Product Development for Cheyenne Mountain Entertainment, the company responsible for the development of the recently announced MMORPG, Stargate Worlds. Sara Baker, the director of marketing also joined us for a conversation about this brand new game. Ybarra is no stranger to video games, with 50 under his belt, or to the MMORPG genre, as this is his 4th MMO title, following on the heels of Shadow of Yserbius, Shadowbane, and The Matrix Online.
At this stage of production (pre-production), all of the decisions for the game have not been made, their team, which they hope will reach nearly 60, is only half full. Ybarra provided us with a number of firm details as well as their thoughts and hopes for the game. What he did say, was that this game is not going to be "orcs in space", and will offer something unique that is true to the Stargate franchise.
