During
ApolyCon '06 held in Timonium, Maryland last
July,
Firaxis Games Director of Creative Development Sid Meier, Designer/Programmer Soren Johnson and Senior Producer Barry Caudill answered attendee questions about the company, the
Civilization series and computer strategy gaming in general. Recorded by event Chairman
Daniel "DanQ" Quick, what they said is now being made publicly available in a series of installments.
In
the second of five parts, Johnson picks up
Civ's story with
CivIII with Caudill and Meier joining in part way through. The three also respond to the occasional attendee question posed in relation to the discussion being given.
Available for listening in streaming 64kbps MP3 format, Part 2 runs for 16m41s (7.8MB); please note that due to the approach to recording, its technical quality is not ideal even after numerous post-production efforts but is by and large listenable. Part 3 is scheduled to be published on
March 5th.
