Nepenthe Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Remember, though, the words mean nothing. Could be just the "4" and the Ouroboros that are actually important... That said, I've been looking forward to a new game to be excited about, and I now hope this could be it. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions
Nonek Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Ooh Jormungandr, colour me intrigued, brightened up my day. Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin. Tea for the teapot!
wingmanz Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Dungeon Siege 4? If it`s gonna be DS and like DS3 not 1,2, then just **** off! You have done enough damage to the series.
Wintermist Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) I came up empty, an Ouroboros isn't exactly uncommon lol. It does sound/look like a fantasy game though. The "4" is alarming me though, since I just can't figure out what game it could be following. Or perhaps it's just the 4 horsemen of the Apocalypse xD Wheel of Time perhaps? Edited September 11, 2012 by Wintermist
karmatrooper Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Yeah the number 4 is putting me off as well. I can't find any significant refference to the number in the cthulhu mythos, but im not that familiar with the works. Wheel of time would be awesome, but I am realy hoping for an investigation rpg in Lovecrafts settings. 1
Crooked Bee Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) An RPG Codex poster has noticed that "Eir Glanfath" is an anagram of "The Fang Lair", so it's going to be a Vampire RPG. On a related note, The Fang Lair is also a location in The Elder Scrolls: Arena. Coincidence? I'll let you be the judge. Edited September 11, 2012 by Crooked Bee
Aoyagi Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Fallout, Alpha Protocol, anything from Forgotten Realms.... I trust Obsidian will make a choice that is better than good
Funktion JCB Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Yeah the number 4 is putting me off as well. I can't find any significant refference to the number in the cthulhu mythos, but im not that familiar with the works. According to something I read elsewhere, the reveal will happen in 4 days, so the number appears to be a simple countdown. If you are looking for any meaning to the number 4, the only one I can think of is that it's considered an unlucky number in Japan, because it has the same pronunciation as the word "death".
Ronan_Berthelot Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) It's Cthulhu (I hope) ! Edited September 11, 2012 by Ronan_Berthelot 1 @+++
HoonDing Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Cthulhu shall incur the wrath of ZZ Top. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Lexx Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 A Lovecrafthian setting would be super great. "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
Tigranes Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 It's not DS4, It's not Fallout 4, It's not Elder Scrolls, so let's move on from that. It's 100%. And it's probably not Wheel of Time. Let's Play: Icewind Dale Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Icewind Dale II Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Divinity II (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG1 (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG2 (In Progress)
Varus the Ethical Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Registered just now so that I can participate in the speculation! So here's my guess. Project X, or whatever it will end up becoming, will be a highly deconstructive fantasy RPG taking place in an original setting. "Space Fighters are cool."
DAWUSS Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 All I know is that it's sparked my interest, seeing as I made my way back here. I hope it's a new IP, I could use one of those right about now. DAWUSS Dawes ain't too bright. Hitting rock bottom is when you leave 2 tickets on the dash of your car, leave it unlocked hoping someone will steal them & when you come back, there are 4 tickets on your dashboard.
Jetman024 Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Jade empire 2? It's been in the back of biowares mind for a while maybe they commissioned obsidian to handle it much in the same way they developed kotor 2.
DeadHUSKSskiN Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Its the next Call of Cthulhu game. Thanx!
Phoynix Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 people say its a snake but it could be a dragon....
Olauron Mor-Galad Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Accepted and the Aes Sedai wear the same looking Great Serpent ring. On the other hand, this is not a rare symbol.
VisLon Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Maybe a new Vampire : The Masquerade ! That would be so awesome
Darth InSidious Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 The distinction between snakes and dragons is fairly elastic, but the point is irrelevant. It's clearly the ouroboros. Not sure what its significance is. It may simply be decorative, since the ouroboros in the ancient world could symbolise eternity; it could therefore here simply have meaning in that it surrounds the number, as a symbolic representation of '4' here referring to four days. This particularly rapid, unintelligible patter isn't generally heard, and if it is, it doesn't matter.
FearMonkey Posted September 11, 2012 Posted September 11, 2012 Doubtful considering everyone is currently working on something. The most vocal person about doing a Kickstarter is Chris Avellone and he's stated if he's going to do one it won't be until Wasteland 2 is done. That doesn't mean Josh couldn't do his own Kickstarter without Chris. Bethesda owns the Fallout license, and will produce FO4 internally. If Obsidian ever make another Fallout, it won't be until a Bethesda FO4 comes out - meaning, at least 3 years out. Sorry. So, you are confirming that Obsidian will be doing another Fallout at least 3 years from now?
