WarCry: During closed beta, how pleased were you with the feedback you got from your testers?Rusel DeMaria: One of Acclaim's major philosophies is to involve the game community fully in the process, through surveys, feedback on forums, beta testing and any suggestions they want to make. During our closed beta period, our testers gave us great feedback, directly in the game, in the forums and through our survey. We're working to implement improvements to the game and have already completely rewritten the story based on their feedback. Meanwhile, all-new features are going in that our players are going to love. We are particularly excited about the Dead Front events, which will involve up to four full parties in a mad-crazy series of battles and tasks, culminating in a huge boss battle, followed by a PvP free-for-all. It's a wild event, and open to players in various level ranges.

Rusel DeMaria: Remember that 2Moons Dil is based on Dekaron, which has been running in Asia for quite some time. So character class balancing was already done, for the most part. Our main job was to localize the game and add features and improvements that would engage the Western audience. As the Chief Creative Officer for Acclaim, David Perry is quite dedicated to bringing games from other countries, but not as mere ports, but as games that benefit from the collaboration with foreign developers and our American knowledge of games. So, our goal is to make 2Moons Dil a game that meets the needs of our audience, which is why we listen so intently to their feedback and comments. On the question of character balance, if we begin to notice any unbalanced classes or skills, we may make careful adjustments, like any MMORPG. WarCry:

What did you do different to make your questing different then other MMO's?

Rusel DeMaria: The 2Moons Dil quest system in part relies on the story of Haran, the world in which 2Moons Dil is set, and a cast of characters, both noble and profane. Each NPC who gives a quest has some issue. Some are tricksters or simply after revenge. Others serve more noble causes, while some simply want you to do their errands. The story unfolds gradually as you perform the quests, and you learn about the heroes and villains of the present and the past, and about the larger struggle. We have tried to provide the quest givers with personalities and interesting stories, so that when you interact with them, there's some sense of engagement with a character, not just a bot giving out quests.
