Interview with Matt Miller and Melissa Bianco

[mikoroshi]

Did you mean the green sunset or Rularuu on the second page? Both are amazingly impactful for very different reasons.

The Rularuu one is from the event I twisted arms at Paragon to get made: When I proposed to my now-fiancee.  It was awesome.

ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?!  THEY HAD A MOON BASE PLANNED AND THEY GOT AXED BEFORE THEY COULD LAUNCH IT?!
YEARGHBLE!!

/em goes off to break stuff

Time to start a new meme. NCSoft hates moon bases.

And villains.

And everything else.

Maybe this is as good a place as any to post this pic....I only created the VERY last one..the other set was d/l from Imgur..

[corvus1970]

GENIUS! 

[Tenzhi]

The Valve Cat made me chuckle, though I've rarely had any use for them.

[healix]

Thank you corvus!
As I said, ONLY the very last one is my creation...someone else worked hard to put the first 10 together.

[Shinobu]

Good interview, thanks Maressa.

[johnrobey]

THANK YOU for the super interview and article, Maressa.  It made my day. 

[therain93]

It's a great interview, although sad too  / ' :

[johnrobey]

I think this is perfect.

When it comes to large corporations, I always think that underhanded schemes and shenanigans are the S.O.P, until given evidence otherwise. Basically, they have to earn my trust.

It may not be fair, but my life's experiences have shown me that I'm rarely wrong in that approach.

Unfortunately, I suspect your life experience informs your opinion very fairly.  I consider myself fortunate in that most of my "career" was spent working in the public sector, specifically higher education, where the organization's commitment to its mission and vision statements was paramount.  The money side of the house was simply one of the things needed for that to happen, not the reason for the organization (college) to exist.

[Adelante]

Very good read, thank you for posting it.

Never felt any form of internal glee or exictment (more of of the lines of "meh"), about moonbases but it would have been something cool to have available for those that like moonbases, especially given the amount of alien or non-earthly RP characters that people have made.

This hits a little close to home for me.

Reminds me of one of my old army buddies' ex girlfriends.

SCARY was NOT the word for it.

What I want to know is if this Maressa was the same @Maressa I knew in CoH back in 2007-2008. We shared a coalition of supergroups together. Shield of Paragon, unite!

Heya Perf, I am indeed @Maressa, or I should say I was. I wrote about City of Heroes for two years, was a player since 2006, and stood by TonyV's side during the early days of the #SaveCoH campaign. Eventually I had to step back as my usefulness had ended and I became more busy with work. When the opportunity to do this interview came up I jumped at it. I really couldn't have been more excited. I interviewed both of them in the past but this was by far the hardest interview I've ever done. I'm really glad that everyone enjoyed it as much as I did.

Fantastic interview, Maressa!  Also...heartbreaking.
