OK, THIS WAS A HUGE UNDERTAKING FOR A SINGLE ARTIST, BUT THE OPPORTUNITY WAS SO MASSIVE THAT I COULD NOT TURN IT DOWN. PLUS, I LOVE WORKING WITH ALL THE FANTASTIC PEOPLE AT EA VANCOUVER, SO I KNEW IT’D BE A GOOD TIME. THE PROJECT STARTED EARLY SUMMER 2019 TO MAKE SURE THE PERK SYSTEM WAS READY FOR THE INITIAL RELEASE DATE OF THE GAME (SEPT. 10). THERE WAS NO TIME TO LOSE. WE NEEDED TO GET STARTED ON LOOK DEV ASAP! I WORKED CLOSELY WITH HEAD OF UX AT EA VANCOUVER (THE GREAT IAN CHAN) TO CREATE A LOOK THAT COMPLETELY THREW OUT THE OLDER DESIGNS OF PREVIOUS GAMES.
