ScreenRant (One of the Architects of Star Wars Galaxies…)

Raph Koster is a legend in the gaming industry. As the lead designer of Ultima Online and the creative director on Galáxias de Guerra nas Estrelas, they know a thing or two about online worlds. Ultima Online, in particular, was one of the formative MMOs of our time, allowing an unprecedented degree of freedom compared to most RPGs on the market.

That philosophy of player freedom led Koster to work on Alcance das estrelas all these years later, which is one of the most ambitious titles I’ve played in a long while. Described as a “living galaxy,” this persistent world not only employs some seriously impressive tech, but it’s also backed by one of the greatest minds in the industry today.

We had the chance to talk with Koster to see what Alcance das estrelas was all about at Summer Game Fest (SGF), and we got an MMO history lesson in the process.
