MMORPG: You also co-authored the reference guide Star Wars: The Old Republic Encyclopedia ?ĬB: Yeah, yeah. This sort of all boiling up to the question “is this how Star Wars: The Old Republic is meant to be?”. You know but more of the overall feel things like as I'm moving through the game, as I'm running around on a planet, as I'm interacting with different systems. We have very talented people who are much better at balancing abilities than I am. So, what is the experience of playing Star Wars: The Old Republic like, does it feel Star Wars-y? What's the gameplay like, in general? I don't drill down to the specific numbers.

But my role is to kind of oversee the entire game from the creative standpoint. MMORPG: So why don't you give us a little insight as to what a Creative Director does.ĬB: Yeah, so it's almost all in the name. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Star Wars Celebration happens next spring, because that is always just an awesome display of everyone's costumes and fandom. Last year, I did my Mandalorian you know, so I try to find opportunities where I can, I definitely miss it. I haven't done any big events, since that kicked in, but I did dress up for Halloween, at least had one of my Jedi outfits on last night. So were you taking part of a lot of the Comic-Cons before the pandemic?ĬB: Yeah, not so much during COVID started. You take part in the 501 st Legion, the Rebel Legion and the Mandalorian Mercs. MMORPG: I also read somewhere that you're a cosplayer. I know the whole team does too, you know, to have this chance to keep telling awesome Star Wars stories and giving fun Star Wars adventures to play through.

I always have been, this is my dream job. Before that, I was on the writing team for the storylines. I'm the Creative Director for Star Wars: The Old Republic and have been for a few years now (2016). I know you've been with a company a long time.Ĭharles Boyd, Bioware: So, I'm Charles Boyd. MMORPG: Charles, why don't you give us a little bit of your history for the people that don't know who you are.
