  1. Cain on Games - Tim Cain's new YouTube channel

    https://youtu.be/qBKd2z43K7E?si=gVLVlUFIzgD8f-3x&t=638 Tim said on youtube that Kevin Wetherman coded the worldmap. You making shit up, Bester?

  2. Game News Todd Howard talks about Fallout

    I can think of several unturned stones, like most of the original developers - Cain, Boyarsky, Campbell,... Wait, those are unturned BOULDERS.

  3. Tim Cain Loves Oblivion

    Boyarsky is at Blizzard, and Anderson left the industry. Cain is still in the industry, but I'm not sure where. I do know that he's keeping a low profile wherever he is. He said he doesn't want any more attention. He just wants to make games.

  4. Preview Free blowjobs at GameDaily: Dungeon Siege 2 preview

    my take As a relative newcomer to the Codex, I fear the predictable reprisals to my following statement, but... I think Dungeon Siege II looks like it will be fun. There, I said it. No, I don't think it will redefine the genre, nor do I think it will bring a new depth to the role-playing...

  5. Vampire Bloodlines at 9.99€!

    Vampire sales I can answer that, but I can't tell you how I know. Well, I can tell you HOW I know (I saw the figures on a NPD print-out), but I wasn't supposed to see it, so I can't tell you WHY I did. Just the right place at the right time sort of thing. Anyway, the game has sold just...

  6. Oh No!!! 10 More years of D&D at Atari...

    Could you back that up, Volourn? Where did you read that Troika was supposed to make the game in less than 18-20 months? Everything I have read about ToEE, including the interviews with the developers, state that Troika was given 18 months in the original contract, but they asked for 3...

  7. Interview Oblivion interview at GameSpot

    It's always something I remember when automapping was added to CRPG's, and the hard core players complained that the games were being dumbed down for the masses. Or when compasses were added and some players thought it made exploration too easy. Or when dialog trees began to take over for...

  8. Looks like Jade Empire is a hit.

    I agree 100%, MrBrown. The industry needs more hit RPG's that are not a bunch of elves and dungeons.

  9. Company News Troika games sales figures

    Oh, sorry, I meant the posters. From some of the devs, like MCA, I gather some of THEM like Troika. Well, ask the poster named Di over on the Obsidian boards. She says the people at Troika have been personally rude and arrogant to her, but I can't find any post where she says what happened...

  10. Company News Troika games sales figures

    Yup. That's why I added the wink. We're cool. On that thread, I'm wondering where all the links are to Troika "blaming the publisher". I was going to post over on the Obsidian boards, since some of those guys REALLY hate Troika, but it looks like they are going to be shut down.

  11. Company News Troika games sales figures

    Looking at the credits, I think it's due to the people involved. The same people who did the dialog in Arcanum (which was really good, imho) appear in Bloodline's credits, but not Temple's. Same thing. Totally different artists in the two games. Of course, Vault Dweller will just accuse...

  12. GameSpy Dissapointed By Troika

    Blame game People keep talking about the "blame game" that Troika played, but when I look at interviews such as this one: http://www.troikachronicles.com/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=8 I see Troika accepting responsibility for many of the problems in their games. So I am left...
