    People News SHOCKER: Chris Avellone leaves Obsidian Entertainment

    If this had happened 5-10 years ago, I might have gotten depressed from this news. As it is now - if he leaves the industry to brew beer and party, good on him. I like what I know of Sawyer, Cain et al and have enjoyed all of Obsidian's titles to various degrees, even Dungeon Siege 3. I think...

    Game News Seven Dragon Saga Kickstarter Update #5: David Shelley on Character Creation

    As I said in an other thread, it's definitely an uphill struggle, but I wouldn't say they are doomed yet. Experience says that a big Kickstarter needs around 30% the first couple of days to succeed (the U shape). But lately there have been a couple with weak launches, but which still managed to...

    Vapourware Seven Dragon Saga - Gold Box spiritual successor from SSI veterans

    They are fighting an uphill battle, that's true. The rule of thumb has been that bigger Kickstarters have a 30/30/30 distribution, with 30% on the first ~2 and last ~3 days, with an almost flat line in between. But there have been several notable exceptions lately, where mentions from geek...

    Game News Wasteland 2 Game of the Year Edition announced...for Xbox One?!

    All right, so not even a timed exclusive. Late summer, nice. " And if you are on PC, fear not" Fargo said, according to Destructoid.

    Game News Wasteland 2 Game of the Year Edition announced...for Xbox One?!

    A year ago I would have said no, but indies deserted Microsoft in drowes due to all the exclusivity restrictions, so they seem a lot more humble now. Doubtful this is an important enough title to pay for anything more than a timed exclusive, but only MS and inXile knows what the contract says...

    Game News Shadowrun Returns Kickstarter Update #79: Dragonfall Director's Cut Dev Diary #3: Combat Mechanics

    No other campaign planned at the moment, as far as I know. It looked like it, as they were hiring (programmer? writer?) with Shadowrun lore knowledge but they explicitly said no. If they do really well in sales, who knows. They might re-evaluate.
