Jaesun Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 All of the US copyrights of TORN (for videogames) have been cancelled and not renewed by Interplay. No one owns the copyright currently, and I pretty sure this is not TORN. Anyways a new fantasy IP by Obsidian would be most welcome <3 Some of my Youtube Classic Roland MT-32 Video Game Music videos | My Music | My Photography Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pidesco Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I never really got a lot of people's fascination with IPs and names. I really don't care whether a game is called Alpha Protocol 2, Theta Service Level Agreement, Planescape: Torment 2, or NonEuclideanSurfacescape: Annoyance. The point is whether a game includes game design I appreciate, like AP's dialogue system, Looking Glass Studios' design philosophy, or Torment's emphasis on non combat gameplay. 1 "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian touristI am Dan Quayle of the Romans.I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands.Heja Sverige!!Everyone should cuffawkle more.The wrench is your friend.

WorstUsernameEver Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Some people are particularly attached to certain gaming universes, their characters, their locations, their art styles, etc.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beetfunchic Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 i agree with above, but you forgot that many of those "names & IP's" hold their power just due to the fact that they represent those design choices... like the Planescape: Torment's focus on the story delivery on the non-combat side just like you said. The reason why i'm excited when i see "Planescape 2: the return of the deep conversations" is just because it promises me the greatness of the first one and more. But it's true what you say Pidesco, those game designs choices are far more important than the IP's or names because their results run so much deeper. Some simple mechanics could leave a mark on you for the rest of your life, even if the package that employs those mechanics is flawed in nearly every other facet. And to be honest, i don't care if the game focuses on combat or arcade style movement or whatever... if it does so in the context of the story as well as games like Planescape did.

Gorgon Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 You can't really go by who owns the IP. Obsidian could have come on as hired muscle, like FONW. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FearMonkey Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I am hired muscle for the world's skinniest-armed strongman competition. Speaking of non-sequiturs... I'm glad the forums have sped up since yesterday. I'm sure they'll start slowing down again soon enough though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

himmy Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) Ok, so for efficiency's sake let's avoid redundancy and make a list of things that were mentioned as possibilities in this thread but are 100% NOT it. So far we have Fallout 4 Dungeon Siege 4 Elder Scrolls game What else?

Auxilius Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 (edited) It saddens me to realize I've not enough imagination to deduce what the teaser is about despite the many many clues. Now, I would say something tied to Greek Mythology, but boy, is that a wild guess. Edited September 13, 2012 by Auxilius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metabot Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 It would obviously not be KOTOR 3, Baldur's Gate 3, and I don't think it has anything to do with Wheel of Time or Planescape. I think it's a new fantasy setting, probably high fantasy. This is what I hope at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
