Interview with David Walgrave, with his answers read out by the interviewer:



Cryptic answer about Project Gustav:

"Actually we are working on a couple of different scenes, trying stuff out. I don't seem that was a secret. We're also still supporting Divinity: Original Sin 2 and figuring out our next steps with it. So Gustav is many scenes altogether, maybe not limited to an RPG."

I guess the interview was conducted before the announcement of Fallen Heroes?

Spotted by Safav Hamon - Fool's Theory (developers of underrated Seven: The Days Long Gone) hiring people to work on Divinity Engine 2 game: https://www.skillshot.pl/jobs/13031-gameplay-designer-divinity-engine-2-at-fools-theor

Fool's Theory co-developed the D:OS 2 free Gift Bag DLC released last month: https://rpgcodex.net/forums/index.p...finitive-edition.118260/page-214#post-6041714

Are they hiring people to work on more of those, or is this something more? As spotted by LESS T_T in that thread, they're also hiring to work on Unreal Engine 4 game.

Larian are now working with three different indie studios. Possible future acquisitions of the expanding Larian empire?

If this is a present from his developers, sounds like a not-so-subtle message to their boss

Roguey will you or one of your minions catch me up on Colin McComb leaving Larian already? Infinitron tagged my earlier question as old but for the life of me, I can't find mention of it.
