Arcanum 2: Return to Steamworks and Magic

Featured Replies

So this is the new game by Obsidian and Private Division....

 

Edit: Nevermind, looks like the same people who blocked me are on the thread, like every other thread I make. This obviously wasn't a troll thread but leave it to these members to try to make it out as so :)

 

Merry Christmas to all, even the blockers!

Just what do you think you're doing?! You dare to come between me and my prey? Is it a habit of yours to scurry about, getting in the way and causing bother?

 

What are you still bothering me for? I'm a Knight. I'm not interested in your childish games. I need my rest.

 

Begone! Lest I draw my nail...

Seriously!? Source please!

If this is a lie, I will block you, SonicMage.  :geek:

Nothing on Twitter or Reddit about it, so not sure where he's getting it from.

Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

They've already worked guns and bombs into Pillars, so making a new Arcanum should be relatively easy for them. But I can't find anything else on the interwebs?

SMage, you are playing a dangerous game.

One of the very few things we know about this project is that it's a new IP.  See, e.g., here.

 

So, no. 

 

 

 

(Also, Arcanum was not a good game.)

Tis just my guess.

 

I thought maybe if I wrote it, it woukd become REAL. As I really want it as well.

You are no Pharaoh... not with that last line -_-

If vampires are somehow an integral part of this new IP CRPG, count me in!

Hey, I can't help if people make this into something it never was... but if people are going to troll my post to make it out as a troll post then so be it. I only posted my guess (what I would like to see from Obsidian and the awesome new Private Division).

 

Wasn't meant to give people false hope or anything like that. If I had the info I would have posted in the Random Gaming News. Be free of me, once more and all the same if thou so wish.

Arcanum 3: Return To Steam Workshop

There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.  

This thread has made my heartbeat resume from its long slumber and then thrusted it a bit further into decay. Is like the Grinch story but in reverse.

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

 

*If you can't tell, it's you. ;)

"Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks

I'd half expect an Arcanum like setting, but there's no realistic chance of it being Arcanum 2. There was never any realistic chance of it being Arcanum 2.

 

I can however exclusively reveal that it is, in actual fact, No One Lives Forever 3. The whole 'new IP' thing is misdirection.

 

(When it comes to Arcanum I'm with Enoch. While aspects of it are good it's not a good game overall)

Are we going to get two apology threads in two days?

The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.

I wouldn't mind seeing this make the light of day...

 

 

 


 

 

As an Obsidian IP this could —possibly be really good.

Arcanum 3: Return To Steam Workshop

 

But then is it steampunk or cyberpunk or cybersteampunk?

 

Will it have a secret codename, like Steampunk 1877?

Up until this thread I loved Xmas. But now. Grinch took them from me... FOREVER!!!

I feel like I have only myself to blame for clicking, it's like being pranked by a four year old who cries if you tell him off. 

 

Anyway, for those who are not keeping track, the new game is definitively an original IP.

I already have them on ignore. If only I could do the same for their threads...
