    RPG Vault has brought together five experienced developers for a discussion on character development in a feature they call Online World Roundtables. Here's a clip:

    Lead Designer, Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark
    BioWare
    The most important facet of an RPG for me is generally the story - I like rich stories that propel me into an exciting world. Almost as important though is the game's character generation system. The more I can customize a character the better - though if the story is extremely strong, I am content with a system that offers fewer choices.

    Playing RPGs, for me, is about experiencing events that normally exist only in my imagination. My fantasy world is shaped in large part by the novels I have read and the movies I have seen. It is great when a game has elements that remind me of the characters and scenarios in my favorite novels or movies. A game rises in my opinion if it gives me the opportunity to play my favorite character archetypes.

    See the whole thing here.
