Last night, Stephan Frost, the Design Producer of WildStar and the voice of the well-known “DevSpeak” videos, answered numerous questions from the community in an English-speaking forum.
One of the most important questions was probably about the endgame content and whether the game would offer enough of it at launch to keep players engaged for longer. Frost confirmed this and listed that there are many contents accessible only at level 50, including raids, veteran dungeons, adventures, PvP zones, and a large part of the housing items.
He also emphasized that it will be very difficult for most players to tackle the raids on the first day, as they would require a lot of preparation and demand everything from you. Furthermore, he mentioned that some developers are already working on the follow-up patches to quickly implement new content even after launch.
In addition, he answered small questions, such as why there are no female Chua as player models (which only underscores the game’s absurd humor):
Chua are neither female nor male, but primarily insane.
Are you ready for the upcoming Open Beta of WildStar?
For many who can’t wait any longer, certainly interesting: The goal is still to release the game this spring and an Open Beta is set to “start soon”, though this should be taken with a grain of salt in programming terms.
Let’s hope that these great promises also come true, then nothing will stand in the way of a successful release of the MMORPG hope.
Until then, just enjoy one of the famous DevSpeak videos:
P.S.: The interview is now completely translated on the German WildStar fansite Readycheck.
