38 Studios Interviews

MMORPG.com and Ten Ton Hammer have both published Comic-Con interviews with key members of the 38 Studios development team. Here's a bit from MMORPG.com's interview:
R.A. Salvatore is a recognizable name to fans of the fantasy genre and is probably best known for writing the Dark Elf novels in the Forgotten Realms series featuring Drizzt Do'Urden.

"Bob is a fixture in the studio," Brett told me when discussing Salvatore's role in the process. "He is writing the story and creating the tapestry and the backdrop in which all of this unfolds. He's very involved with everyone, lending his wisdom and thoughts on the best way to impact the audience with both his story and game play experience."

And a little something from Ten Ton Hammer's interview:
...how do two visionaries like Salvatore and McFarlane work together on a team of artists and writers? Writing a novel and in some ways creating a comic book is an independent project, and I wondered how those two have been adjusting to working at a game studio.

(We're definitely a family,) Cuthbertson stated. (It's not always pats on the backs all the time, but there's no denying that we all respect and appreciate each other. Both of those two are involved in the studio community and do as much as they can.)
