AdrianWerner Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 > My bets are on KOTOR3 or BaldursGate3..both have been preety much confirmed coming..and neither has developer officialy annouced for it. You sure about that? LA had a team togeather for KotOR3, as they wanted to develop it internally from what I was told. But they disbanded it last month. AFAIK KotOR3 is in limbo not being developed currently. But I do concede I dont follow star wars fluff so things might have changed since the LA KotOR3 team disbanded. Actualy that's why I'm thinking about KOTOR3 by Obsidian. KOTOR3 is no-brainer...it's selling very well on both PC and Xbox..and since LA's KOTOR3 team has been killed... who else would they hire for KOTOR3 if not Obsidian?
ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 The only two with the experience really are Bioware or Obsidian. Bioware has a lot going on at the moment but with JE closing up they could do it. I hope it's Obsidian myself because after KOTOR II playing a KOTORIII by Bioware is going to be like reading a Janet and John book after you read Lord of the Rings. I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now. Deals like this kills development studios. 478327[/snapback]

Cybersquirt Posted March 13, 2005 Posted March 13, 2005 But is the safe route that much of a no-brainer when your rep is at stake? And in deference to the original topic, I am sick of dwarves and elves.
Lady Alenuska Posted March 15, 2005 Posted March 15, 2005 I'm really hopeing It's not Bg3 I really felt the game story ended at 2 and there really was nothing more to tell. It's a classic and should remain so I'm worried if someone did make it. That it may not meet everyones lofty expectations. I truely would like to see a very dark and disturbing original from Obsidian. Not another Sequal..
John Morgan Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Obsidian Entertainment is indeed working on a third project. All I can really say is that it's in a state of pre-production at the moment and it is not a Bioware license. SiO2

All I can really say is that it's in a state of pre-production at the moment and it is not a Bioware license. KOTOR III isn't a Bioware license, is it? :lol:" No, that would be a LA license. Now if the guy (J.M.) could just have said: "We are not working on a sequel..." Then we could rule out FO3 and BG3 too. Now, can somebody tell me what the third state was to join the US ? “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

GhostofAnakin Posted March 17, 2005 Posted March 17, 2005 Isn't Bethesda working on FO3? Or bought the rights or something? In any case, my guess is KOTOR 3. "Console exclusive is such a harsh word." - Darque"Console exclusive is two words Darque." - Nartwak (in response to Darque's observation)

Amentep Posted March 17, 2005 Posted March 17, 2005 Hmmm, very interesting. I'm hoping its an original project. That'd be cool. But I confess I wouldn't be too torn up with something that's somehow connected to an existing franchise if it was well done. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man
