Tim speaks, so does LucasArts 14 Mar, 2005 / Comments: 9

By Remi


If you for some reason should be stopping by E3 this year, you might want to check out some of their conferences and workshops, as there are some interesting stuff going on.

Example; Tim Schafer will be on the "Developing Better Characters, Better Stories: How a Game Character's Emotion, Passion, and Intelligence Makes the Game Experience Real" panel. Other noteworthy panelists include people from Bungie (Halo) and Valve (Half-Life).

Representatives from LucasArts's marketing department will also be on hand, talking about "Identify and Understand the New Consumer of Digital Entertainment: Adapt to the Latest Rules of Fun or Get Left Behind" and "Smart Marketing: How an Intelligent Approach to Research can Boost your Bottom Line".

    I don't mean to bring the hate parade to a halt or anything, but unless anyone actually knows hard numbers for LEC's financial situation I don't see how you can dismiss the panel title's accuracy. There's more to things than just the adventure market ya know.

    I don't know. I'd say laying off approximately 50 percent of your staff are sure fire signs that their finances aren't fantastic.

    Excuse me, I should say 50 employees, not 50 percent.

    yeah, i cant tell if the LEC discussion panel is a news joke or not by mojo.

    Lol, are you sure LucasArts is talking about marketing? Or is E3 on April 1st, 2005? :P

    Y'know it's news posts like these that make me sad that the names of Lucasart's panels are actually probably true.

    "Adapt to the Latest Rules of Fun or Get Left Behind" sounds like a boring way of saying "evolve or die" to me!

    What? No jokes about the Lucas marketing department?

    I didn't see the point, as they were all kind of given.

    "Smart Marketing: How an Intelligent Approach to Research can Boost your Bottom Line" - the jokes really write themselves.
