Adam Foster Interview: Part Two

[Ennui]

That's right, the conclusion to our two-part interview with Adam Foster, creator/mapper of the superb single-player modification MINERVA, has finally been released.

Adam Foster: When I started Metastasis, it was intended to be just one map. There are still remnants in its construction which betray this - but only if you know where to look. Building downwards, I realised I had plenty of space to work with - both from a gameplay and a plot- foreshadowing point of view. So I took the lone, comparatively small Horrible Secret concealed by the Combine, and added a friend. A far larger, nastier and dangerous friend - one which has had just a little foreshadowing at the end of Metastasis 2…

[br]Without delay, go read it here. The first part is also available, in case you missed it or want to refresh your memory.

Wow part one came out before Episode 1. Why did it take so long for part 2? Still part 2 is pretty good.

Nice Interview, but yeah, why did this second part take so long to come out? I had completely forgotten about the first part.

Love last question.

Is there anything about Breen being part cyborg?

I'm guessing this second part wasn't released earlier because it contains information about Episode One, or to spin it out in terms of talking points, or neither.

ZING! He's right. As far as I know, Samon took his time sending him the second half of the questions :O

Nice read. It would be cool if CargoCult told us a little bit more about his visit to Valve though. ;D

Actually they were sent quite awhile ago, but Adam didn't really get round to them. Pretty much on both our parts.
