  1. Troika and the Fallout rights - where did I read that?

    I couldn't agree more about Troika's need for business types. I believe I've mentioned before that we were looking to recruit a business guy to run that side of things before we circled the drain. Sadly, barring any miracles, Troika is pretty much dead and buried. We have officially gone out...

  2. Troika and the Fallout rights - where did I read that?

    I love Volourn! I obviously disagree with some of his opinions, but his wrath and vitriol are amazing to behold. Beyond some very early pitch docs which revolved mostly around how cool it would be for someone to give Fallout's 'original creators' (oops, I can hear Volourn typing furiously...

  3. Troika and the Fallout rights - where did I read that?

    I didn't do the 'no mages allowed' ad - is that the one with the ogre? I'll have to dig through my stuff to see if I have a copy of it to post somewhere. I know I have the Mage painting ad. Glenn Fabry did the ads and box cover for us. While a mill might not seem like alot for a license...

  4. Troika and the Fallout rights - where did I read that?

    I hate to break this up I would have posted sooner, but you guys seemed to be having too much fun. For the record: We never, ever bid on Fallout. One major publisher mentioned Interplay was shopping it around and would be interested in us developing it for them, but theydropped it as too...

  5. Company News Troika games sales figures

    I don't have any actual numbers at hand (nor do I know whether I can reveal numbers per our contract, since I don't have that with me at the moment either), but to the best of my knowledge, ToEE was our best seller - or at least our fastest. The reason it's difficult to say is because our...

  6. Company News Troika games sales figures

    The reason Andrew could see our royalty statements is because we were an open book company - besides sharing good news with our employees (like good sales numbers) everyone knew where we were financially at all times, even when the news was bad. leon

  7. Review Bloodlines excites the loins of ActionTrip

    " I thought part of the point of using a 3D engine was to ease the design of new models?" We could have loaded the streets with 50 different models (though no matter what the engine can do, it still takes someone to model and texture these things, and that = time and money) - however, the...

  8. Review GameZone likes Bloodlines

    Maybe he liked the combat. I can't vouch for the writing quality, but this review is closest to how I feel about the game. I love the combat (especially the disciplines combined with melee), but my concern has always been that players would find the main story line too linear. Don't get me...

  9. Review Bloodlines excites the loins of ActionTrip

    Volourn defending us? I'm not ready for the world to end yet. Please disregard the anonymous "troika employee" posting. We are not in the habit of slamming our publishers while we're still working with them. We wait until they kick us to the curb for that. :lol:

  10. Game News Bloodlines glitch reporting forum up

    Dojoteef, why must you hate? Where is the love? In no way shape or form was I attempting to fool anyone with my newfangled lingo, the whole glitch thing is personal to me. I feel since I'm head muckety muck at Troika I can invent whatever lingo I want, and force the Troika work dogs to use...

  11. Preview GameSpy previews Bloodlines

    I must have not been clear enough when I was talking with Gamespy about this - I probably glossed over it too fast. So, here's the detailed version of what I was trying to say: There was never any factionalization during the development of Bloodlines, with one wanting more FPS and one wanting...

  12. Editorial Leon Boyarsky - Thoughts on RPG development

    Okay here's the deal with the women in Arcanum: There were never going to be dwarven women or Half Ogre women as playable races in the game. The decision for no Half Ogre women was story driven (you find out why there are no half ogre women in the game during one of the quests) and the no...
