News: SOE: John Smedley interview @ GamesIndustry.Biz
As part of GamesIndustry.Biz' MMO week they spoke to SOE president, John Smedley:
Q: There's definitely a skill to predicting what's going to be popular such a long time in advance, and get work underway, it seems.
John Smedley: It is, and I just saw this quote, I think it was from Henry Ford, that Steve Jobs also used: "If I'd asked my customers what they would have wanted, they'd have said 'A faster horse.'"
You have to think a few steps ahead, and I think one of the things that World of Warcraft did really well was take a game like Everquest, which really pioneered the space, and they really polished it up.
Now it's time for us to lead in new directions, and work on games in different genres. With The Agency we're working on the spy genre, with the DC Comics we're working on the heroes genre, we're making sure that we're thinking ahead of where the market it.
