    Lol, I forgot about Grounded. Parkerrim - I guess it is a Skyrim clone directed by Parker. Most likely, will be cancelled if not already. Outer Worlds 2 sold well, so there is a chance the sequel is in the works. Sawyer's adventure game is a mystery to me.

    From what he said about it("non-violent"), its not his dream historical game and it seems very idiotic to me that he was able to convince people to make an obscure/experimental game but not to make his dream game which he said would be small budget.

    Sawyer got so burned by Deadfire's failure and his inability to understand why it failed that he's convinced he's unsuited to making party-based RPGs.

    I don't know what Sawyer's dream historical game is, but I don't see why his non-violent game couldn't also be historical.

    Turn-based Darklands. Though as I've said, this is possibly his St. George game.

    Didn't Battle Brothers kinda fill that void already? So why make a game that would be compared to Battle Brothers, rather than making something hasn't been done?

    Battle Brothers does not come across to me like a Darklands clone. It's a series of battles, isn't it?

    I haven't played it since all there was to do was run around the map and fight until undead hordes start showing up and raping everything, but it isn't anything like Darklands and Sawyer would weep deeply and gnash his teeth for the noobs if it's still as hard as it was when I played it.
