Anyone seen this Chris Avellone interview yet?

Either I missed it or everyone did. :P

It's nice to have some details about what Ulysses was like before he was cut. Hopefully Chris, Jason and Josh will be willing to answer more questions about development once the DLC is out and there's no worry about the marketing department.

If you're going to read the article, go to the original version at http://www.gamasutra.com/blogs/WillOoi/20110917/8462/An_Interview_with_Chris_Avellone__game_designer_writer_and_former_unlucky_schlep__Part_3.php. The version on the wiki is pretty gutted.

Good interview it always kinda kills me when they talk about how certain things got cut, especially something like Ulysses thats seems like he would have really bolstered the legion in terms of making the choice more morally ambigous which I think would have added to the game. The talk about other possible companions was pretty cool having Benny , Yea Man, an Vulpes could have fleshed out a lot of motivations and backstory as to why Benny betrayed House along with some more character, Yes Man could give us a peek at what House had been up to, and Vulpes again bolstering the somewhat weak Legion side along with what would probably have been an awsome companion quest. Kinda a bummer to learn about some really amazing sounding things that didn't quite make it.
