Q&A with From Software! Monthly!!

[Isshak_Gravi]

Hey RavenRepublic!

I am super pleased to announce community interviews! Every month, you will be able to ask questions on a certain TOPIC. Each month will be different, and every aspect of the game will get previewed so you will have the chance to ask all your questions. They will be sent straight to the From Software dev team in Japan who will answer them! ISN'T THAT AMAZING?

This month's topic is parts: creation, design, balancing, how hard is it? How long does it take to make one? EVERYTHING! So ask away. We will round up the best questions regarding parts from Facebook and across forums on the internet.

I hope you'll have interesting ones

What can be done about accuracy issues with bipeds using sniper cannons?

What are those shields for? do they offer the same protection/ defense boost when kneelieing?

What direction are they taking AC?

Both thumbs up. Ask that one.

What direction are they taking AC?

Both thumbs up. Ask that one.

That's not on topic for this month though. You will have the chance to ask general type questions at some point, don't worry!

I like the other two. Keep them coming!

How do you playtest and balance parts in the game?

[R.Leonhardt]

^I second that one, I'm curious to see as to how they come up with part stats and why they often end up being unbalanced =)

Questions for this month have been sent out! Should take about two weeks to get the answers back, since the team is also busy, you know, making the game and all.
