Former NCsoft Dev Talks of the Fall of Tabula Rasa
Posted January 17th, 2009 by Savanja
Tabula Rasa will be closing it's servers soon and this calls for post mortems from industry bloggers both near and far. No one has a better perspective though than a former NCsoft developer who witnessed the birth and the beginning of the end
As TR moved closer to release, company wide, we were *ordered* to start particpating in weekly playtests. As I mentioned, I wasn’t really fond of shooters, and clung to that Get Out Of Jail Free card fiercely. I mean, being one of the most obnoxiously opinionated persons on internal email lists, along with the whole ranting on the web for a decade thing, having an excuse *not* to have an opinion on That Thing Looming Over All Of Us was pretty sweet.
This blog gives a very interesting outlook on what might have gone wrong and what could have been done differently. Visit the Broken Toys blog to read more!
