<a href="http://mabinogi.nexon.net"><span style="font-style: italic;">Mabinogi</span></a>'s latest expansion, <a href="http://mabinogi.nexon.net/ErinnWalker/01/"><span style="font-style: italic;">Pioneers of Iria</span></a>, has recently gone live on the servers after much anticipation by the fans. Now players are able to not only explore the brand new continent of Iria, but also able to take advantage of new races in character creation, such as the giant and the elf, and the brand new exploration system.<br /><br />We here at Massively recently had a chance to catch up with Nexon's Matthew McCullough, the associate producer on the North American version of <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/mabinogi"><span style="font-style: italic;">Mabinogi</span></a>, to ask him some questions about their brand new release. Is all of this new content truly real? Is it really free? Can elves and giants live together with one another in harmony?<br /><br />Hit the continue reading link below, if you want the answers to these burning questions!  Also, if you're a <span style="font-style: italic;">Mabinogi</span> fan, look forward to our hands on with the <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/pioneers-of-iria"><span style="font-style: italic;">Pioneers of Iria</span></a> expansion later on in the week!<p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/03/09/mabinogis-associate-producer-helps-us-pioneer-our-way-through-i/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Mabinogi's associate producer helps us pioneer our way through Iria</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/03/09/mabinogis-associate-producer-helps-us-pioneer-our-way-through-i/">Mabinogi's associate producer helps us pioneer our way through Iria</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Mon, 09 Mar 2009 15:00:00 EST.
