Rhomal Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 NWN2 on the horizon...Obsidian...Feargus Urquhart...I'm not sure you could ask for a better situation here. Feargus was behind both of the original Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 as well as NWN. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Black Isle was the PUBLISHER for BG1/2, Bioware was the DEVELOPER. Bio did the majority of the work on the BG series and all the work for NWN1. BI OTOH did the fallout series, IWD series and planescape. With that said, I am very confidant Obsidian will do a EXCELLENT job with NWN2.

For either God can not prevent the mischief of Satan, in which case he is not omnipotent; or else He could do so if he wished, but will not, in which case He is not benevolent.

taks Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 ellester is quite aware of bio vs. bis involvement with the games... an original on the old black isle forums, i do believe. fu had a large role in those games as noted... taks comrade taks... just because.
Ellester Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 @taks and @Vol I have no idea why he took away the points. :ph34r: Also, that quote Rhomal took from me is actually Grok.

taks Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 don't really care about your wl over at atari. i was mostly just pointing out that rhomal need not explain the history of BG to you, as you've been around as long as i can remember. and i've been posting since BG1 (different handle then...mendolf) taks comrade taks... just because.
taks Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 though chiding you about flame warnings is rather funny... you tend to be level-headed enough to not need warning taks comrade taks... just because.

Aaron Contreras Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 So who is developing it? Just 'Atari'?
Guest Surlent Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 Atari is the only one who has rights to publish FR games. But I don't think they make games themselves, not sure though. I'd figure BG3 is still in early stages no matter whoever is making it. PC Gamer had some info on last summer about BG3, if I recall right. But after that it's been total blackout, in worst case they might have even cancelled it.

Judge Hades Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 And what? I was agreeing with you, Volourn, and stating why Interplay got weak.
Volourn Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 And, try to absolve the BIS lackies of any responsibility. The entire company from the top CEO to the bottom janitor are at fualt.

Judge Hades Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 Well, they did deny him the raise so he left to form Obsidian. Um... just kidding, Feargus.
