So I remember Sven opening up a new studio in Quebec, now there's a thing in Saint Petersburg and also in Dublin according to their job openings http://larian.com/jobs/

Does this mean 4 games simultaneously or bankruptcy soon? Discuss!!

Well, it's just a graphic/web artist position in Dublin, that could just be a design office.

As for bankruptcy, less of an issue when your artists accept potatoes as currency.

They've had an office in Saint Petersburg for years, I believe. The Dublin studio is the writers who were recruited for D:OS 2.

They've confirmed that there is another game in development alongside DOS 2, so I thought nothing of it when they released the video months ago about the Quebec studio. I did get a little confused when I got this video, which appears to show the new St. Petersburg studio full of various types of developer working. Maybe plans changed and Quebec will be a smaller scale operation insted of St. Petersburg, or maybe they really do just need 3 or 4 full time studios

I hear new office and I assume it's in a different country for some reason, even though the video expressly mentions "Gent"
In my defense it was late as fuck. Pardon my complete idiocy:badnews:

IIRC the studios in Dublin and Russia are just supporting studios and the studios in Gent in Quebec are the development studios.

Larian is working on at least two games, D:OS 2 and the secret project. After watching the videos I am getting the feeling that they may also be working on a third game which is in an early concept phase.

I see your three and raise you four:

We are working on four big ideas. This is a different direction, which I unfortunately can not tell you more. We need to think carefully about what we will do next, and take important for the future of our company's decision.
