Chris Avellone talks crowdfunding, RPGs, Project Eternity and Wasteland 2 [GCAP Interview, 2012]

You'd never guess that Chris Avellone once held dreams of becoming an architect. These days, he's Creative Director and co-owner of Obsidian Entertainment, and hard at work on two very different (yet, rather similar) projects. We caught up with him at Game Connect Asia Pacific earlier this year and asked him about Project Eternity, Wasteland 2, and why the formerly major developer has reverted to this crowd-funded business model.

Player Attack News

Everybody has a voice, but everybody's talking about the same thing. There's a lot of noise out there, but Player Attack aims to cut through the fluff - or, sometimes, fill you in on the fluff you might have missed. We like indie releases, breathtaking concept art, and tie-in book launches. We love cheap thrills, a good soundtrack and finding innovative uses for gaming technology. All of that is reflected on the site, updated each day with stories and details about what is going on in the games industry, always paying attention to stories other outlets ignore.
