April 24, 200619 yr Now all you Obsidian fanboys can attack him for sucha 'betrayal'. Found at NWN2 Boards linked from NWN Vault: http://nwvault.ign.com/ (scroll down to see it) "Ferret Baudoin, former Lead Designer for NWN2, and his wife Alice, were kind enough to send word that they are moving to Edmonton, Canada, where Ferret will take up a Senior Designer position at BioWare. Unfortunately he couldn't speak as to the circumstances behind the switch in companies nor what project he'll be working on, however it's good to hear that he will still be in the gaming community I cover." At least he's in Edmonton; not Texas so it means he's likely working on one of their RPGs not their MMORPG. Congrats Ferret! It's too bad in a way 'cause he was cool at Obsidian so hopefully he'll remain cool at Bioware!!! Edited April 24, 200619 yr by Volourn DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

April 24, 200619 yr Congrats Ferret! It's too bad in a way 'cause he was cool at Obsidian so hopefully he'll remain cool at Bioware!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Is Volourn implying something bad about Bioware? That would be a first for Volourn. And yes a 75% on the OC is a good score not a bash. lol Good job Ferrett! I just hope you don't get stuck on the mmo and have to work on the same game for 8 years. Life is like a clam. Years of filtering crap then some bastard cracks you open and scrapes you into its damned mouth, end of story. - Steven Erikson

April 24, 200619 yr Author "Is Volourn implying something bad about Bioware? That would be a first for Volourn.

I think I scared those types away from this thread.. at least so far.. it's been too positive... so far. P.S.S. Haha! I type that and somebody had to be funny! :D Edited April 24, 200619 yr by Volourn DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
April 24, 200619 yr Maybe. I didn't play it so I don't keep mind of it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Bioware didn't become relevant til Baldur's Gate was released anyway.
April 24, 200619 yr Author No. Not relevant to us. But, we're not that important anyways. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

April 24, 200619 yr Author Not to mention you continuing to buy their games. Heck, you bought an x-box just to play JE. And, don't try to make an exuse of 'I bought other games too'. We both know you bought the x-box for one reason - to play JE. The other games are bought by you because they are there. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
April 24, 200619 yr Author And, then you ended up enjoying it. Go figure. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

April 24, 200619 yr Here's hoping Ferret can teach Gaider a thing or two. I like Gaider, but Woo can sure hold a grudge.
April 24, 200619 yr am not sure why woo ever took vis serious 'nuff to hold a grudge. and Gromnir also likes gaider, but the biowarians has collectively gotten a little less recptive to criticism. *shrug* HA!
