We'll be interviewing Trystan Falcone ("Walnut" from Acquisitions Inc.) on Tuesday, September 18 at 2pm PT. This will be a chance for Neverwinter community members to get to know Trystan and AI a bit better and for AI fans to engage with the Neverwinter community!

If you have a question for Trystan, leave it here and we may ask it during the stream!

    Is AI going to be an offshoot of lore for Neverwinter, an integration of a kind of philosophy for gaming, both or neither?

    How can AI through NPC interaction bring in the element of DM-generated fun, as was mentioned at PAX West?

    What is/are the greatest challenge(s) to translating the DnD craziness that I have watched in your videos into an MMORPG?

    Could we expect other members to make an appearance as well? I've started watching the C team with the announcement and I'm really liking it so far. I'd love to see all other members too.

    How much was Acquisitions Inc. involved with the story and content of the new module? Did you make the story, gave tips, or was just presented with a story and slapped the brand on it?

    I find the vast majority of the humor in the podcasts come from the random blurts of the players. We laugh at their dark humor or amusing complaints when things go sideways. How do you create that level of 'randomness' with Neverwinter's prewritten NPC dialogue?
    Did you really think anyone could steal the power of the god of thieves?

    What was the inspiration for your character?

    How long have you been playing D&D?

    What are Walnut's secret thoughts about Omin and Jim?

    Guys, please note that Amy is not part of the NW dev team. Gameplay questions are unlikely to be taken up. Will be more story/D&D focused.

    I would take any class by this point( I would like monk) but I’d like anything now

    This crossover will probably bring new watchers for AI. Do you have any tips for those who just started watching?

    Also, do you have any tips for people who are new to tabletop?

    Greetings Amy!
    What was your favorite aspect of bringing your character from the table to the digital realm? What was the most difficult part?
    Players can grow quite attached to their characters, especially those created from their own imagination. What emotions did you feel after being approached to allow the team at Cryptic to interpret your character? Is she how you originally envisioned her?
    Are you going to join us in-game, incognito, to see how players react to the characters, story, and content?

    This cant be seen in the announcement and in the description. So thx for your clarification. Maybe julia is more specific next time.

    Questions:

    In the trailer is a big shout with "REEEWAAARDS!!!!". What does it mean? New rewards? Better rewards as the actuall loot? Rewards only for professions? New skins maybe? Personalized stuff?

    Housing? :)
