That’s not to say they’re trying to be gossipy; they’re sharing some internal interviews, starting off with Tannim222, the lead gameplay designer for the MMO. They may also be gossiping about you specifically. You know why. You totally know why.
Tannim describes his job function, which is to work on various underlying mechanics, combat systems, and gameplay systems, helping to conceptualize things like launch power sets, NPC faction powers, progression systems, and reward systems among other things.

More interviews are planned to be shared later, but followers of this successor game can get started with the series here.
