Morgoth Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 As you all know, PB is working on a new franchise (although they say it's still very reminiscent to Gothic) together with Deep Silver. Here's a teaser homepage with an artwork: CLICK The name hasn't been announced yet, althouh some infos already drizzled through. The game takes place on a Vulcan Island, the "Forbidden Isle". The gods have abanoned the world, and now an other force emerges whom the player will be confronted with. Also, they've now fixed the broken Genome engine finally. No horrible stutters a'la Gothic3 will occur. If there will come more infos along the days, I'll post it here. Rain makes everything better.
mkreku Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Woohoo! :D Although the Genome engine works wonderfully for me in Gothic 3. It only stutters when it accesses the harddrive. I can live with that. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
Musopticon? Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Mafia 2 and now this. The world is slowly getting into form, attacking my wallet with the intensity I thought was unique for 2001-2002. 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
Jora Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Good news. Hopefully they're able to publish it outside Germany too.
Morgoth Posted August 23, 2007 Author Posted August 23, 2007 Well now that's another question. I know at least they'll publish it in Austria too, and that's all I currently care about. Rain makes everything better.
mkreku Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Bah. I had to import Gothic and Gothic 2 Gold (Night of the Raven) already so I am not worried. I'll learn (more) German if need be. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
Morgoth Posted August 23, 2007 Author Posted August 23, 2007 I think with the intention to press forward for a stronger international course, Deep Silver shouldn't have a problem to publish it worldwide, or at least find publishing partners. Rain makes everything better.
Kaftan Barlast Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I think these people have an even more skewed perspective on what makes a good CRPG than Bethesda.

Morgoth Posted August 23, 2007 Author Posted August 23, 2007 Why are you always so negative? Rain makes everything better.
Musopticon? Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 (edited) That's kinda weird, coming from you. Also, Kaft's schtick is funny.

mkreku Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I was just going to write "Let's hope they bring back the pony-tail in this new RPG" :D They cut it in Gothic 3!! :'( Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

Morgoth Posted August 23, 2007 Author Posted August 23, 2007 It has been revealed on the GC that Spellbound will develop Gothic 4. There's already an interview with Spellbound (in German) which I won't care translating at this time. Spellbound has made games like Robin Hood, Desperados 1+2... Solid games, but by no means RPGs.... I dunno, I feel suddenly. Rain makes everything better.
Tale Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Only thing I know is Deep Silver published X3 and I love X3. However, that should have absolutely no bearing on this game. Pre-edit: F' teasers. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
kirottu Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 I was just going to write "Let's hope they bring back the pony-tail in this new RPG" :D They cut it in Gothic 3!! :'( I too, totally want my protagonist to have long, red and hard pony tail that swings boldly all the time on my computer screen.

Morgoth Posted August 23, 2007 Author Posted August 23, 2007 Well, Kafty could always make a Mod, don't you think? Show us your Art-skillz!!!11 Rain makes everything better.
Kaftan Barlast Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Mind you, Ive actually been hired to do a couple of characters and monsters for an computer version of "Drakborgen"(mkreku will know what ti is) ..and The Kaft is not a troll DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner.

mkreku Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 I just wish they would release a little more information. So far it's "We're making a game! On an island!!" and nothing else. A name would be nice.. and a community board.. and perhaps some early art designs, just to get a feel for the game.. ANYTHING! Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!
Jora Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 From RPG Watch: As stated yesterday, the game is set on a volcanic and
SteveThaiBinh Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 The graphics engine will consist of some licensed components but most of it is being developed by Piranha Bytes itself. I think I hear the music from the Psycho shower scene. I really must get round to playing Gothic 3 one of these days. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now." (Nina Kalenkov)
