Lord Soviet Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Sad thing is, everyone will buy KOTOR3. Even if it's bugged to death and even if reviewers acknowledge the fact, people will still buy it, either hoping that they would avoid the bugs because of their system configuration or that a patch would be released to fix them. Furthermore, even if the game has a lousy storyline - well, it would still be a KOTOR storyline, and people would still play it, if only to see how everything turns out in the end (since I have no doubt that KOTOR3 will be the last game in the series).
Suzie Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Baldur's gate 3? Isn't that like, a myth? Or legend, or something, 'cuz everyone keeps saying it's being developed but nobody ever wants to confirm anything... bah. As for future Obsidian games - I've never had much interest in NWN2 *anyway*, and as for after that? Well, I might be a bit more cautious next time - reading reviews and boards BEFORE I get the game - but I'm not ruling anything out.
ken007 Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Well right now I have no confidence in Obsidian... at all! I am interested in NWN 2, BG3 and KotOR 3, but I won't buy them until I've read a couple of reviews and heard what the community has to say about them! I'm actually quite surprised at how positive all the reviews have been about KotOR 2, so I don't trust their judgement 100% now!
Belhawk Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 i will be buying NWN 2, i thing they will do a very good job on it. If they are doing KotOR 3, yes I will, I am enjoying KotOR 2 very much. Any other game, it depends on what the game is. I am not inot massing multy player games or first person shooters. I like fanatsy games: Elder scrolls, Might and magic, Wizardry, etc.
Osiris Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 yes I am. In fact, I like KOTOR2. I think I like it nearly as much as the first one. And I love Neverwinter Nights. I usually give a company a second chance. I have a feeling they won't mess up the ending to Neverwinter Nights 2. They are already getting a lot more development time. We're not talking months, we're talking about years. That's a good think NWN2 isn't coming out in a long while.

The gameplay is identical to the first one.
Fionavar Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 As this thread seems to be a general discussion about Obsidian, rather than KoToR specific, I believe it is more appropriate in Obsidian Suggestions.

Envy Posted February 20, 2005 Posted February 20, 2005 Yes, I will. Altho I was heavily disappointed in KotORII, I can understand why it turned out that way, with LA being publishers and all. However, I've been a huge fan of BIS since Planescape: Torment, and simply adore their dark stylistic writing. It's quite unique, and very satisfying. "When the foul sore of envy corrupts the vanquished heart, the very exterior itself shows how forcibly the mind is urged by madness. For paleness seizes the complexion, the eyes are weighed down, the spirit is inflamed, while the limbs are chilled, there is frenzy in the heart, there is gnashing with the teeth."
Hundred Companions Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 K3 better not be the end of it. Or else I wish to experience the following in a game of a different title: 1. Hyperspace War 2. Sith War 3. First Jedi Civil War. But given the technologies adapted for these in the graphic novels, if they do decide to make games, they should stay true. HC
Gorth Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 If it's only to be based on Kotor2, I can't see any reason for me not to get the next game. I love the style (visual, audio, story (haven't reached the ending yet), dialogue etc.), it runs smoothly on my computer. No "obvious" bugs, nor crashes, average level load time less than 2 seconds. Pretty good stuff. Reson for not buying their next game would be it's association with the NWN name... traumatic experiences For that one, I'll wait and see the general concensus on the content. “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein
NeverwinterKnight Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 i wonder if well know by e3 (or whatever that big event is) if obsidian is working on their third title.
Aurora Posted February 21, 2005 Posted February 21, 2005 Despite certain issues I have with KOTOR2, Obsidian is one of the two game companies I actually respect. And despite certain wariness I have about NWN2 design decisions (okay, one in particular), I'll pretty much buy it no matter what the reviews say. I am following my fish.
