Tags: Chris Avellone; Obsidian Entertainment

Since Obsidian Entertainment seems to have become an extension of Bethsoft it doesn't surprise that MCA enters the stage over yonder at the Bethblog.

What’s your job at Obsidian?

I’m Creative Director. I direct creativity, sometimes in a positive direction. I also ask “why should the player give a crap?” a lot.

What games have you worked on?

I worked as a level designer/senior designer on Fallout 2, the Icewind Dale series (all of them), Dark Alliance, Champions of Norrath, Neverwinter Nights 2 and Mask of the Betrayer, and as a Lead Designer on Planescape Torment, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords (man, that’s a long title), and Alpha Protocol. Currently working as a senior designer on Fallout: New Vegas.

I also did a lot of writing for Hero Games’ Champions back in the day, which was good times.

A very informative interview, thanks.
