World of Warcraft E3 Interview

Warcraft Strategy has conducted an interview with Andy Kirton, asking the associate level designer quite a few questions about World of Warcraft at E3. The interview is in article format, with a snippet to follow:
My next slightly controversial question was the 24 hour clock, and what revolved around its making. Andy told me that as a level designer, he loved it. He said that it makes things so much better for the environment because he can do things like say, at 6:00 at night all kids go inside. In the morning, you might hear a rooster crow and see the women and children come out of their houses to begin their days. Also added was the fact that since it is done in real time, special events like putting pumpkins out for Halloween or lights up for Christmas are all possible. "Some people might only ever play when it's dark, but we feel that it's a small sacrifice for what we're able to do with it this way," Andy told me.
