| 0s | I think the the battle at the end with |
|---|---|
| 2s | um oh shoot |
| 5s | oh I just like the you you find a bad |
| 9s | guy at the end yeah I really like how |
| 12s | that turned out |
| 14s | [Applause] |
| 17s | too all right well welcome everyone to |
| 20s | forged in eternum the show where we talk |
| 22s | about All Things New World I'm James |
| 24s | Wong narrative designer for new world |
| 26s | and I'm joined today by Brian and |
| 28s | valyria you guys want to introduce |
| 29s | yourselves I'm Brian patod season's art |
| 32s | art lead and uh including season 4 hey |
| 35s | I'm valer and I'm environment artist on |
| 37s | season's team total rock stars and today |
| 40s | we're going to be talking about uh the |
| 43s | story for season 4 Eternal Frost um so |
| 47s | season 4 uh you know in in New World in |
| 50s | general I'd say we've met a handful of |
| 52s | characters from King artorius Court um |
| 55s | and in season 4 I think we have a lot of |
| 56s | fun diving into the story of one |
| 58s | particular night of the round t |
| 61s | who had a falling out with king artorius |
| 63s | during the wars of crimson Madness extra |
| 65s | points if you guys know what listeners |
| 68s | at home if you know what that is um and |
| 72s | so he's uh doing everything in his power |
| 74s | to take down everything that artorius |
| 76s | loved Humanity |
| 78s | puppies snowflakes no I don't know |
| 81s | anyway so uh we're chasing him uh across |
| 84s | aternum as he tries to recover these |
| 87s | powerful artifacts um that were used |
| 90s | long time ago by one of the Ancients to |
| 93s | create uh Amara or or in their attempts |
| 96s | to create Amara which are basically like |
| 97s | trying to deify regular human beings and |
| 100s | give them god-like Powers um so we go |
| 103s | into some pretty fun and unique |
| 105s | locations I'd say in season 4 um so if |
| 108s | you guys want to share maybe what some |
| 110s | of the favorites uh that that you worked |
| 112s | on were yeah without going into too much |
| 114s | detail or spoiling um I suppose um I I |
| 118s | worked on a lot of the different quests |
| 120s | and everything but uh Quest 6 was uh |
| 122s | pretty special to me um I got that off |
| 124s | the ground and there was a big uh |
| 125s | traversal section where we were able to |
| 128s | kind of dive into one of the existing |
| 129s | locations in the world and get more |
| 131s | gameplay out of it instead of just a |
| 133s | facade and the Vista um we get to to |
| 136s | kind of get up and interact with it and |
| 137s | it leads us to a a new location um and I |
| 142s | won't go into any details well so so |
| 145s | Quest 6 is is basically where it's it's |
| 147s | towards the end of the the the story |
| 149s | line where you're trying to chase after |
| 152s | um this night of the round table and |
| 154s | he's he's he's I don't want to spoil |
| 157s | anything either but um but I think one |
| 159s | of the things that I liked about that |
| 161s | that we talked about before is that |
| 163s | you're basically you're you're breathing |
| 165s | new life into an existing location uh in |
| 169s | great cleave can I spoil that I think |
| 170s | that's |
| 172s | okay and made it really fun yeah yeah um |
| 176s | yeah I really enjoy it um because it's |
| 178s | just again it's something you pass by |
| 180s | um in last season now it's it's integral |
| 183s | to the to the actual game yeah and I and |
| 185s | I feel like there's just so many places |
| 187s | in eternum that like you know the |
| 188s | corners of the map that like some some |
| 191s | Adventures are out there exploring but |
| 192s | like it it's cool because like you know |
| 195s | think oh I've been there before like you |
| 197s | know I I didn't know this was like this |
| 198s | up here so yeah it's always fun it's |
| 201s | it's it's fun finding new purpose and |
| 203s | you know like the entrance to five as |
| 205s | well just making use of that nice sort |
| 208s | of composition and that that area |
| 210s | uh so what are your what are your |
| 212s | favorites I just like you work in |
| 215s | multiple areas but um most of the time I |
| 218s | spent on daichi Quest like okay yeah so |
| 220s | let me yeah so daichi um daichi Saito is |
| 224s | a new member of the silver crows uh that |
| 227s | we recruit in this um in this storyline |
| 230s | and he's really fun um I you know this |
| 232s | is like my personal like passion area is |
| 236s | like Japanese feudal ERA this is like |
| 238s | the fun of a tourn I think is cuz we can |
| 240s | bring all these really interesting |
| 242s | historical you know groups and cultures |
| 245s | into our stories like you know King in |
| 249s | the same storyline we have someone from |
| 251s | king artorius court and then also |
| 253s | someone from the Japanese fial era yeah |
| 255s | yeah that's really fun it's awesome to |
| 256s | have so so few sort of constraints and |
| 259s | yeaha did a fantastic job in the in the |
| 262s | quest yeah it's yeah I really like how |
| 265s | it turns out especially in the beginning |
| 267s | comic list no spoilers of course but um |
| 271s | after you enter the area you get into |
| 274s | another one which is quite um quite |
| 278s | different comparing to the rest of the |
| 280s | quest and I think this is what I like |
| 282s | the most because it still fits the tour |
| 285s | as in a world but it's a little bit |
| 287s | different and it portrays the character |
| 290s | daichi really really nice and unique way |
| 293s | yeah I think so and I think we can we |
| 295s | can talk a little bit about the detail |
| 296s | of that space so like people don't know |
| 298s | what we're talking about um |
| 300s | uh it's so we get actually an invitation |
| 303s | to daichi's Dojo um and so like I think |
| 306s | yeah you just just knocked it out of the |
| 307s | park with that one like I didn't even |
| 309s | realize that we could do were asking for |
| 312s | hey we'd like to have a dojo like I was |
| 314s | just picturing like oh it'll just be |
| 315s | like this like wooden blocks Jenga kind |
| 319s | of it I decided to it UNL movie and it |
| 324s | just it it it it gave sort variety to to |
| 326s | season 4 as well I mean obviously we're |
| 329s | indexing on the the Frost sort of |
| 330s | aesthetic and everything but yeah I |
| 332s | think that that really mixed it up and |
| 333s | it was just it was a lot of fun to to |
| 335s | get the variety in yeah and I should say |
| 337s | that we're we're actually um recruiting |
| 339s | him partly because he happens to have |
| 341s | really powerful Fire magic like so he's |
| 343s | a ronin um that came to aternum and like |
| 347s | once he got to aternum he studied um at |
| 350s | a fire temple on AUM and learned Fire |
| 352s | magic um so I think you know we're we're |
| 355s | recruiting him for that so that's the |
| 357s | tie into the to the frost element and |
| 359s | that reminds me of the the the third |
| 361s | Quest as well like that was just it came |
| 363s | out of nowhere it's it's amazing and um |
| 367s | yeah I'm just I'm super excited to get |
| 369s | everyone yeah in there yeah so um I and |
| 372s | you know I feel like we should we can we |
| 374s | can get into that a little bit as well |
| 377s | the details I don't want to spoil |
| 378s | everything but um so so in our um in |
| 382s | that part of the story basically we're |
| 384s | going after one of the artifacts that |
| 386s | that um a king has recovered and it's |
| 390s | such a powerful artifact that it's |
| 392s | basically it's and it's centered on the |
| 394s | power of frost um so that it's driven |
| 396s | him mad but it's also sort of iced over |
| 399s | his entire domain like it's basically uh |
| 402s | you guys created like an |
| 404s | amazing um island of ice |
| 408s | essentially credit to tza credit to |
| 412s | thank yeah what's your favorite uh area |
| 415s | within that Island um I really liked the |
| 417s | approach I think she did a bang up job |
| 419s | there um so many aspects of it honestly |
| 422s | um and again I just like I don't know I |
| 424s | guess they can cut it uh spoil which I'm |
| 427s | known to do but um yeah the approach to |
| 429s | the castle the the traversal up and in |
| 432s | and it's just um yeah it's just it was |
| 435s | yeah it's it was from scratch in in such |
| 438s | a short amount of time and turned out |
| 440s | great it looks amazing yeah um yeah I |
| 443s | think we got a lot a lot of the people |
| 444s | who' have been play testing even in |
| 445s | house are just like wow you know like |
| 447s | I'd like to hang out here yeah you know |
| 450s | if I could charge charge him a ticket |
| 452s | fee or something yeah or in real life |
| 455s | I'd like to hang out in some of these |
| 456s | things yeah I know how about you Valia |
| 458s | what was uh what was your favorite space |
| 460s | on that on that island uh on the island |
| 463s | it's um it's probably inside of the |
| 466s | castle the room that you worked in yeah |
| 468s | of course the room I work on but not |
| 470s | only uh I actually really like the |
| 472s | throne area right I don't like the |
| 475s | lighting there and just in general the |
| 477s | whole stuff is happening there so yeah |
| 479s | yes I have a question like for you guys |
| 481s | so like and and sorry total totally |
| 483s | didn't prepare |
| 485s | you but um when you when when we say |
| 489s | something like hey we'd love to have a |
| 490s | space where like this or that event |
| 493s | happens right like how do you guys even |
| 496s | get started on like what to do you know |
| 498s | well if we're lucky enough I always uh |
| 500s | when we can manage concept it's it's |
| 502s | nice um you know we we always we always |
| 505s | fight for it and we get we get less than |
| 506s | we'd like um but yeah um as far as the |
| 509s | the new spaces it's it's one of my |
| 512s | downfalls too is is I I love so many of |
| 514s | the ideas that you guys come up with |
| 516s | that it's hard for me to start making |
| 518s | Cuts you know to like hey keep keep |
| 521s | everything no no no I I I'm like love |
| 524s | all of these and I want to do them all |
| 526s | and so it's it's a balancing act trying |
| 528s | to keep everyone happy um and also just |
| 531s | um yeah bu building the like helping |
| 533s | realize you guys' Visions on the from |
| 535s | The Narrative perspective um I don't |
| 538s | know if I answered your question |
| 540s | no but like you know what's the what |
| 542s | sparks your creativity you know I mean |
| 544s | would you take a shower I think never um |
| 548s | no I think pulling rough too like I I've |
| 550s | traveled a bit and and it's always fun |
| 552s | to kind of um pull pull reference and |
| 555s | ideas from that um so I don't know I |
| 558s | think it really depends on what exact |
| 560s | location is in in any of the Season |
| 562s | stories is there any places for I my my |
| 564s | my head just went to the the castle in |
| 566s | salsburg which I just love so um that's |
| 569s | cool |
| 570s | yeah and like some of the areas on the |
| 571s | the castle on the island and everything |
| 573s | kind of reminded me of that as far as |
| 574s | the open Vistas and everything ni so |
| 576s | yeah um yeah everything is inspiration |
| 579s | how how about you what where do you get |
| 581s | inspiration I'm getting inspiration from |
| 583s | the story behind you put it so I read |
| 585s | quite a lot what exactly you put in the |
| 587s | character I'm trying to kind of reflect |
| 590s | their I don't |
| 592s | know their character into the |
| 594s | environment out this is what happened |
| 596s | with the for example because ially get |
| 600s | yeah in terms of the Dodger he is a |
| 603s | traveler it is his place he's training |
| 605s | there sometimes he's you know growing |
| 607s | his uh little bons yeah yeah yeah but in |
| 611s | general he's not really spending a lot |
| 612s | of time there so you are supposed to |
| 616s | notice it and this is the reason why I |
| 618s | made it I I'm not sure can I share it no |
| 621s | I think it's okay so I decided to make |
| 623s | it like overgrown area because he |
| 626s | doesn't really have a lot of time to |
| 628s | spend there because I it's huge so he's |
| 631s | just like our players traveling around |
| 633s | fighting yeah know I love that I love |
| 635s | that and like I feel like you know the |
| 637s | work that you guys do adds back into the |
| 640s | story especially yeah now that you |
| 641s | mentioned the dojo I did I really |
| 643s | appreciated the amount of like effort |
| 644s | and like story and and everything that |
| 646s | you again it just sort of cyclical how |
| 649s | you you the idea comes back and it it |
| 651s | sort of enhances over time yeah I agree |
| 654s | I agree okay so I have another question |
| 656s | for you guys |
| 658s | like |
| 661s | what's uh what's a favorite uh Story |
| 664s | part of the story or favorite character |
| 666s | that you have that we told so far in |
| 668s | Seasons I think the the battle at the |
| 671s | end with um oh shoot |
| 674s | oh I just like the the you you fight a |
| 678s | bad guy at the end yeah I really like |
| 681s | how that turned out too and I I got that |
| 682s | off the ground and Carlos took it over |
| 684s | and he just really it's it's so it's so |
| 687s | fun and sorry this is indexing more in |
| 689s | the the environment than the character I |
| 691s | really love the character but just when |
| 693s | you're you hit a place and I had to go |
| 695s | off and do this and that and and and |
| 698s | they kind of like they take it and run |
| 700s | with it and the collaboration I just I |
| 703s | just love yeah um yeah cuz it was just |
| 706s | took it to this level and then he he |
| 707s | pushed it further so yeah I just I guess |
| 710s | I love that no I I agree with you no |
| 712s | like the back and forth that we have on |
| 714s | our team uh between you know narrative |
| 717s | and art is just awesome I think like we |
| 719s | just feed each other like what about |
| 721s | this yeah that' be great yeah and then |
| 723s | um papova and tza went into like the the |
| 726s | part of uh Quest 62 and just hit it with |
| 729s | like some of the you know the the decor |
| 732s | and the lighting and the V effects and |
| 733s | everything and it just yeah it just yeah |
| 736s | I don't know it's Collective |
| 739s | work um how about you Valia uh I would |
| 742s | agree with Brian about like the last |
| 745s | part of the season but I also really |
| 747s | like the location prior to that right |
| 749s | because it's so deep it's so amazing all |
| 753s | right well that that pretty much brings |
| 754s | us to our community question and I'd |
| 757s | like to ask you guys if you could see |
| 759s | more of Any Given character that's been |
| 761s | introduced in season so far which one |
