Jacobs: WAR's the game we wanted to make

More Mark Jacobs this morning, this time from an interview with MMORPG.com. WAR isn't the game EA wanted to make, apparently: it's Mythic's.

"In the end we got to make the game that we wanted," he said. "Not that game that EA wanted, not the game that Blizzard wanted, it’s the game that we wanted.

"We got two delays out of it with EA where we said, ‘we need to delay it again’. EA didn’t rush us out the door. They could have said to us in June, ‘no guys, you’ve gotta ship it, patch it afterwards.’ They didn’t. And I don’t mean that I threatened so they didn’t, they never said that."

He retired from VG247, and the games industry, in 2017.
