Dungeon Siege 3 - Interviews @ Mods Reloaded, CVG

Obsidian's Nathaniel Chapman has been interviewed at Mods Reloaded about Dungeon Siege 3.  Here's a quote on story and dialogue that sounds interesting:

How much of a focus is story in this third game compared the last few entries?

NC: It is a core focus of the game, for instance we have a full branching dialogue system like Alpha Protocol or Mass Effect. That is something that wasn't in the first two games and is a core strength of Obsidian. It's what we're bringing to the franchise and one of the reasons why Square and Gas Powered wanted us to work with us.

It appears to be a canned interview, because exactly the same content is also at CVG.
