Matt Chat - Robert Woodhead Interview #3

[Couchpotato]

Matt Barton posted the third part of his video interview with the co-creator of Wizardry Robert Woodhead. Topic this time are about Wizardry, and the Apple II.

Robert Woodhead, co-designer of the Wizardry series, returns for one last segment to talk about the later days of his time at Sir-Tech. We also talk about his efforts at copy protection, the Mac, hacking the Apple II, and why he didn't like the 1541 (Commodore's disk drive). We wrap up with a discussion of David W. Bradley and Robert's thoughts on making a new Wizardry game.

All three parts are worth listening! Computer gaming history lessons.

I agree HiddenX and If you don't watch the video Matt asked him if he was willing to make another Wizardry game. Here was his answer from the video.

"Only if it was truly innovative and he was allowed to do whatever he wants".

Hopefully he gets another chance to make one.

I enjoyed all three parts to this interview. Great material for the RPG enthuasist to explore and learn about, including some nice gold nuggets on the C64 (which this particular geek appreciated) Thanks for posting Couch!
