Tale

The last word on Torment is that Avellone thought they could do a lot better than that, by using the studio's ideas instead of just focusing on him.

Definitely not. They have Onyx. Infinity Engine belongs to Bioware/EA.

I'd prefer a Pratchett/Games Workshop crossover featuring Orks. Just Orks.

I see. So they are asking for a truckload of money for an IP that the younger CRPG generation probably hasn't even heard of, and that's why there hasn't been any proper D&D games in 10 years. I think the main reason we haven't had any proper D&D games is because of the Atari debacle. They had this shift of focus to social/downloadable titles. They basically left AAA development altogether and took the license with them.

Playing Transformers: Fall of Cybertron makes me wish for a Transformers RPG. Customizing your robot, scanning vehicle forms, joining the Autobots or Decepticons, moving your way up through regular Transformer to things like Transmetals or something. Earning a second vehicle form, the ability to shoot out little Transformers like Soundwave, or to join and become a bigger transformer, that kind of thing. That'd be pretty fun.

Infinity Engine is owned by Bioware/EA. So they'd need to license it. Which is why I don't see them using it. Onyx should be capable of 2D work.

Also residuals. But you may be talking about good for the audience in the early stages. A vision statement alone might be more than we get on some games for quite a while.

Sleep, not rest?

It looks like there's more than what we're seeing. To the left of the highest E is a line, which could be from another letter.

This time I do remember the source quote! Looks like ETERNITY might be a winner.

That was an example, not an actual decipher.

Better yet, why? Baldur's Gate did what it was meant for. I see no benefit to dragging it back out.

That's what it sounds like to me.

I think I might be sick. Yesterday: Symptoms consistent with allergies. Last night: Overheating This morning: Sore throat, light sensitivity Currently: Minor light sensitivity, congestion. Give it to me straight, doc, how long do I have to live?

Maybe it's a previously cancelled project we've already seen the codename for. North Carolina could have been resurrected. Or Virginia Or maybe Sega came to its senses and it's Conneticut, with all the teaser info being to throw us off. That's number 2 on my list (sorry Sawyer), so I'm hoping!

We're talking about it down in the Project X forum.

Futurama RPG Edit: But seriously, if it's Defiance or any of the Obsidian pitched projects, I'll be ecstatic. Worst case scenario, however, is that Guildmaster has been hitting the sauce and randomly creating new fora to be mysterious in.

Apparently just overslept. Glad I didn't have any money in that assumption.

Oh boy. We may have a no show. I'm all alone at the office and the college student that typically works M/W/F didn't show up and isn't responding to calls.

Took me 2 hours to get Neverwinter Nights running last night. But I've started it up. Wizard, ahoy! My only complete playthrough was as a Rogue/Assassin, so this should be different.

It had 4 days left and only raised 0.6% of its goal.

I finished Darksiders 2. The ending was really anticlimactic. Now I'm off to struggle at enjoying Neverwinter Nights OC. I bought it off GOG, so I feel obligated to play it. Considering my recent KOTOR jaunt, I want to see if I'm more open to it than last time.

Baldur's Gate had co-op and I don't think it hurt those games. But since you don't really get to create a completely personal character, I'm not sure that Baldur's Gate style will work. They'll probably only let you take control of a companion.
