LotRO: Interview with Jeffrey Steffel

Massively is featuring a roundtable interview from Connect '08 with Lord of the Rings Online executive producer Jeffrey Steffel. The discussion began with a viewing of some of the highlights of Book 13 and then opened up into a broader Q&A session.

Q: Book 13: Any cinematic, unique content (like Gollum) planned?

A: Certainly in books 13 and 14 the epic story continues, we'll have more adventure instances that have a bit more of that dramatic feel. Moria will have a substantial amount of that. It's one of the things we know differentiates the game - we have a story to tell.

Q: Any plans to modify the kinship management system, like kinship banking? Any plans to combine kinship and housing management so the kinship pays upkeep?

A: Kinships is another system like housing that we have a roadmap for and a lot of stuff we want to do - just a matter of when.
