I was looking at some PAX coverage over at Spoony Experiment (link below), and imagine my surprise when he interviewed one of the top game designer for Guild Wars 2 and I saw the name Jeff Grubb pop in.

He does mention his work at TSR, and I was really surprise to see a D&D designer/author work on a video game. Just wanted to let you guys know.

Note that the interview with Mr. Grubb is right after Spoony's rant on FFXIV at about 5 minutes in.

Jeff Grubb was also involved in some way in the first Guild Wars game. I believe he wrote or co-wrote the "Eye of the North" storyline. He doesn't regard himself as a designer of video games, but still as a writer.

Some say the world will end in fire, Some say in ice. From what I’ve tasted of desire I hold with those who favor fire. But if it had to perish twice, I think I know enough of hate to know that for destruction ice is also great and would suffice. – Robert Frost (1874 - 1963)

Yeah I saw that on wiki, I did not know that before the interview.

Indeed, I just might check it out. Though if its release date is anywhere near the Old Republic...
