Gamer's Press has conducted a seven-question
interview with 3DO's James Dickinson, Associate Producer for Might & Magic IX. Here's one of the questions:
Q: Tell us something interesting about MM9 that we didn't know... are you introducing any new aspects to the M&M series that you're especially excited to introduce?
A: We’re very excited about our new spell and class system. We’re also very excited about our monster and NPC AI. They will have lives of their own greater than just reacting to player input. You will be able to watch an NPC get up in the morning, walk to his job, work for most of the day, then spend some time relaxing in the tavern before retiring for the evening. That is just a small example of the things our NPCs will be able to do during the course of the game. These new systems should add a depth to the RPG experience that has as yet been unseen in any RPG.
