(Without a doubt, this was our most successful event to date,) noted Fredrik Wester, CEO of Paradox. (The general reaction to our previously known projects in development and our newly announced titles has exceeded our expectations. I can't thank those who made the trek to New York enough. It was great having so many join the Paradox family for the week. )
