WildStar Wednesday is upon us, again! The team at
Carbine Studios intends to give a weekly update for its upcoming MMO
WildStar. Before finishing off part two of
From Concept to Creature, Senior Community Manager
Robert "Robeardo" Land decided to sidestep the creature aspect of the world and concentrate on the history of the
WildStar central planet, appropriately named Nexus.
Robeardo had to call on the talents of Narrative Designer
Chad Moore to assist him in the developer blog. Moore explains that Nexus was once the home of the Eldan, an ancient, advanced race that disappeared from the galaxy over a thousand years ago, leaving behind all of its technology to rot. Part of the excitement for the player is exploring the planet and unearthing artifacts. Moore explains further:
The rusting wrecks of giant robots lie half-buried in shifting desert sands, and strange and deadly alien creatures prowl in the shadows of extraordinary monolithic machines. And hidden among all of these wonders are the dark secrets of the Eldan themselves, and the answers to why they disappeared from planet Nexus so long ago.
WildStar is locking in the explorer type of MMO player, and we at Massively will keep our eyes out to see if it hopes to hook the social, killer, and achiever types, too.
