Mythic’s Mark Jacobs really wanted to see Age of Conan succeed
MTV Multiplayer’s Tracey John, speaking with head of Mythic Entertainment Mark Jacobs, has been exploring a line of questioning about the MMO industry in general. They noted the high failure rate for the genre, and the equally high expectations that are now placed on new games by fans and industry commentators. Jacobs offered up, as part of this discussion, some analysis on why Hellgate: London didn’t make it, and why Funcom’s Age of Conan has been having so many problems over their long first summer of launch. Of Hellgate, Jacobs noted that it’s not sufficient simply to have really talented people on the team. That’s a straightforward process. In addition to that, “sometimes just having talent is not enough. You need leadership and you need patience. And what’s most important - something that so many developers forget - is you also need to deflate the ego a little bit.”
About Conan, which the site categorizes as ‘failing to deliver on promises to players, Jacobs states that he actually really wanted the game to succeed. Now, with a summer of frustrations and player unrest behind them, he thinks they’re in a tight spot. Ultimately, he just wants someone to show the world that MMOs don’t have to be World of Warcraft to succeed. As for Mythic, “If we don’t succeed with EA behind us, the ‘Warhammer’ IP behind us, with one of the most experienced teams in the industry, that’s not going to be good for the industry. We need to show the world that it’s not just Blizzard who can make a great game, and that the audience is absolutely willing to try new things and to play a game other than ‘WoW.”
