Q: As you just said, '˜Seed' does not have a combat system at all. No elves, dwarfs, dragons - and no battles. What is the clue behind your thoughts. Or are you just crazy?
We are quite crazy. It helps in this business. We are not crazy enough though, to think that we can beat the likes of Sony and Blizzard at their own game, so we decided to cater to another segment of players instead. We want to be a game that caters primarily to role players, secondarily to crafters. Also, this is the kind of game we really want to make. If we put in a combat system, this would risk to move the focus away from role play and crafting.
Also, by concentrating on roleplaying as much as we do, we hope to attract a lot of good roleplayers, which again should make for a role playing oriented community. We do realize that we can probably never get a player base of hundreds of thousands, but then, we don't need that to have a sound business. We would rather cater 100% to 30-40.000 players, than 50% to 200.000 thousand players.
