What I am looking for in a CRPG is a balance between Morrowind's openness and Jade Empire's/KotOR's story. RIght now we are getting extremes and extremes are good once in a great great great while but a balance between story and nonlinear exploring, kind of what was there in the Fallouts and BG 1 would be nice.
I am just glad J.E. is back with Chris A. and Ferret. Things are almost back to "normal" in the CRPG world just as long as J.E. doesn't make grenades as melee weapons in Project New Jersey.
