DIKU Redux: Is Leveling Still Needed?
DIKU games have been in existence for a long time now and have reached it's most mature and accessible form with World of Warcraft.
In a recent news item put out through the War Herald, EA announces restructuring for the MMO and RPG groups.
EA is restructuring its RPG and MMO games development into a new group that includes both Mythic and BioWare. This newly formed team will be led by Ray Muzyka, co-founder and General Manager of BioWare. With this change, Ray becomes Group General Manager of the new RPG/MMO studio group. BioWare’s other co-founder, Greg Zeschuk will become Group Creative Officer for the new RPG/MMO studio group. Rob Denton will step up as General Manager of Mythic and report to Ray. BioWare’s studios remain unchanged and continue to report to Ray.
For you Bioware fans out there, make sure you read the bolded above; so this shouldn’t affect the continued development of SW:TOR.
Regarding Mark Jacobs co-founder and current General Manager of Mythic: “[He] will leave EA on June 23, 2009. We thank Mark for his contributions at Mythic and wish him the very best going forward. Mark played a major part in the success of Mythic with his contribution as General Manager and Lead Designer of WAR.”
What does this mean for the diminishing MMORPG WAR? There is no question that this MMOG has suffered after such a stellar debut. What changes can go into this game to re-attract gamers?
