Kyshakk Koan Txgangsta Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I read somewhere that the play Bluebeard is what helped spawn Avadon. How long has Jeff been planing Avadon? Edit: This is A3, Southpoint Lighthouse on the Isle of Bigail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, Bluebeard does prominently feature locks and keys, so that does fit with the motif for that room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 the conclusion that should be drawn is probably not that jeff has been planning to make a game based on bluebeard since forever but simply that it is A Story He Likes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Jeff posted at one point that the inspiration came a year or two ago when watching Bartok's Bluebeard opera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This game was made much farther back than a year or two ago. I thought he said that was the first time he had seen it.

Well-Actually War Trall Acky Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 It's probably just a coincidence. I mean, names ending in beard are rather prevalent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Names ending in "-beard" that begin with "Blue-" in stories concerned with locks? —Alorael, who can imagine Jeff having heard about the story before actually seeing the opera and throwing it in there, Jeff having actually read it before seeing it, or even the hand of another employee in that bit of dialogue. Maybe Mariann is a big Bluebeard fan and got Jeff to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
