Musopticon? Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Yeah, people don't generally buy games that are not fun. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai. So let us go and embrace the rustling smells of unseen worlds
Pop Posted June 21, 2007 Posted June 21, 2007 Which is fortunate. hundreds of thousands of people see sequels to movies nobody liked (see: Fantastic 4) and it's sort of comforting that a similar phenomenon doesn't occur in the gaming world. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!
funcroc Posted June 22, 2007 Author Posted June 22, 2007 http://www.duckandcover.cx/forums/viewtopic.php?t=17848 Fargo Confirms It! A few days ago, we reported that Brian Fargo might, in fact, be working on a successor to Wasteland. The boards were abuzz with speculation and hope. Well, we got word from the man himself. Brian Fargo, the founder of Interplay and the producer of the original Wasteland, told DAC the following: "I am indeed looking into bringing back the game that spawned the Fallout series. Stay tuned...." Stay tuned we will.
Diogo Ribeiro Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 If the game is pants, then it will be subject to an immediate tsunami of bad will, as every person who buys it tells ten others not to, and why. Which is a separate issue in regards to how well it pleases diehard fans, yes?

Dagon Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 Mkreku get in touch with Fargo once again and tell us new informations (or give me his email on PM)
mkreku Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 I don't dare to contact him anymore.. He asked for my help to find Wasteland in those "Best Games of All Time" lists that sometimes pops up on the Internet and I was too lazy to even try to search for it. Well, I did search a little, but I didn't find anything and then I gave up and just didn't respond to him. I think his email might be on the InXile website. Or maybe not. It's on my work computer though so I don't have it at hand. And in 8 hours I start my journey towards Perth, Australia so I probably won't log on here for five to six weeks starting tomorrow. Great timing, huh? Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
thepixiesrock Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 Pfft. Well for me and the rest of us true fans, this will be a spiritual successor to Fallout in name only.

I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my viens. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk, and free throw. I am there.
Tale Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 Pfft. Well for me and the rest of us true fans, this will be a spiritual successor to Fallout in name only. I'm dying to hear how that works. Spiritual successor in name only. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Dark_Raven Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 DOS games are so yesterday. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
Pop Posted June 22, 2007 Posted June 22, 2007 Most excellent. Really, most excellent. I wonder where the project is at, at the moment. Is Fargo just actively shopping it around? Have they found a publisher? Is Fargo making it in his own house or is he subcontracting it? I'm actually hoping they go independent with this, or at least watch their budget. No newfangled new pixel-shaded engines, no ambitions beyond making a quality RPG. That's what I'd hope for, at least. No way they could make a spiritual successor to Fallout and hope to make money unless they're watching their spending. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!

karka Posted June 23, 2007 Posted June 23, 2007 Wow... Fallout was the sipiritual successor to Wasteland and now Wasteland will be the sipiritual successor to Fallout.
