Exclusive Perfect World International Interview - Raising the Bar

Posted November 3rd, 2008 by Cody Bye

A free-to-play game that hopes to give you more than what you pay for.

When it comes to the international marketplace, most gamers tend to act like ostriches and keep their heads buried in the sand. It's not that we don't care - it's typically the fact that we have a hard enough time keeping up with our own MMOG news. So when Perfect World International was announced, most gamers went..."Huh?" To learn more about the upcoming game, Ten Ton Hammer's Danny "Ralsu" Gourley had a conversation with PWI's Jonathon Belliss about the imported free-to-play game and whether or not the title will be a "perfect fit" for gamers.

"Being gamers ourselves, we know what it’s like to play a great game, but find the game’s overall impact and presentation stinted by inappropriate or even incoherent localization," Jonathon said. "All of us here at Perfect World Entertainment felt a genuine desire to provide a free to play product with pay to play quality. A game’s localization should accent and compliment an end-user’s experience, not hamper or discourage them from completing objectives and progressing through the game."
