Vanguard: Saga of Heroes Interview

The folks at Okratas have published an interview with Sigil Games' Tom King, in which the developer talks about the user interface they'll be using in Vanguard: Saga of Heroes. A snip:
Q: What sort of role do you see the interface playing in future MMOs?

A: A very important one. I'll explain. I've developed a philosophy over the years, working with interfaces as both a programmer and an artist, which I finally had a chance to partially realize, when Everquest made their interface fully customizable. My philosophy is that the user-interface is an incredibly important layer within any game. It serves as a conduit of information and matrix of interactivity. It can and should be designed with both functionality and aesthetics in mind.
