Question 4

July, 2021 - [No Link] Q: Would you mind sharing those sketches?

A:

1) This was a sketch of a player character arriving through a portal (into Dereth, though we hadn't named the place at this time). We wanted to have a reason why people were arriving in this strange new world without any prior history or familiarity with the world.

2) This was the first sketch of an Olthoi. You can see they had the overall shape AC players would be familiar with but were quite different from the final version.The whole fungal symbiote idea was just too abstract and subtle for us to communicate using the technology of the time.

3) The first sketch of Dereth, with some major landmarks that made it into the lauched version of the game. Note 'Aiden' vs his later name, Asheron.

4) This was my attempt at a more polished sketch of an Olthoi for an artist to create a 3d model from. The writing on it are his notes that don't have anything to do with the work, afaik.

5) This is the cover of the business plan for the company that would eventually become Turbine. The name, 'Cyberspace', didn't last long, as it was a fairly generic term even at the time. It was changed sometime in '96 to 'Second Nature Interactive,' and later to 'Turbine Entertainment Software'.
